Hi All,
Other than Peter Schofield nobody else has expressed any thoughts or
opinions as whether or not we should adopt the NextCloud versioning
system, or should we continue with the proposed folder structure and
file naming format, so I propose a poll:
Option 1.
Go ahead with the simplified
If the document's final edit has been done and is ready for publishing I
would suggest it is placed in the "Published" folder. This seems to be a
better option than having questionably named folders scattered around
NextCloud. The folder name is only a label, placing a document there

There is an option to insert a comment into a cell in LOOL Calc. Maybe I
am missing something, but is there any way to make an inserted comment
visible. I am looking at this as an idea for our status spreadsheets.

Hi All,
The full book PDF of the Writer Guide for 6.4 is on the wiki. Is there a
reason why the individual chapters PDF & ODT have not been added there?
If it's just that we haven't got around to it, I will update the wiki.
