Jean, Oliver, thank you both. I had a vague recollection that this had
something to do with translating the guides and now I clearly understand
the importance and process of the "cleanup".

Dave

Here is what Milos said in a recent note:

The modifications are mostly oriented towards translation - in order
to make it possible (often messy) direct formatting should be removed
by a clean up script. In order to not to spoil formatting, prior to
that I want to check and correct all formatting:
- convert direct formatting to an appropriate style if necessary (e.g.
bold to LOMenuPath)
- convert styles reset by direct formatting to default text to the default style

Except for that I want to check index entries. Some on them are bound
directly to text - in languages with inflection this results in
inflected entries in the index, which is bad.

Would someone be kind enough remind me:
  o Why the chapters need to be "cleaned"?
  o What is it that Milos does to "clean" them?
Thanks

[libreoffice-documentation] GS5.1 Getting Started - all chapters published

2016-07-23 Thread Jean Weber 
I've reviewed and published the last of the GS 5.1 chapters. When
Milos has cleaned them, I'll combine them into a book.

Thanks to everyone who contributed to getting this done.
