Re: [libreoffice-documentation] New Writer
Hi Trent and all: As I understand, Olivier Hallot lead the LibreOffice Documentation Team. We are finding people to join to update the Calc Book from 4.2 LibreOffice version to 6.0 version (The next). Tomorrow we have a meeting: "Our documentation team meeting will take place today at 19:00 CET (Berlin time). We will use the following jitsi meeting room https://meet.jit.si/tdfdocteam The meeting room is supposed to work will all browsers without the need of a specific plugin. The documentation pad for the minute is http://pad.documentfoundation.org/p/documentation " You and all that want, can join us tomorrow and talk more about this topic.

Later you might get into git and submitting patches. In the long run we want to do away with the awkward git process, though.

Welcome indeed! :-) What are you most interested in, please - writing new documentation? Or improving the existing one? In which area? [Writer / Calc / Impress / Base / anything else?] We are currently trying to improve the LibreOffice help system; many new LibreOffice features are not documented at all, and we should fix that. Is that something you'd be interested in helping with? - we will be happy to bootstrap you there.
