Dave, Here is a suggestion that might help those of us who are new: a chart or listing that attempts to show who is involved in the documentation team and what they are doing. It might be hard to ensure that everyone is included but perhaps it could start with the people who have been

Hi Cor, I appreciate your advice about how to get the wording revised on the program download page. Unfortunately, I don't know what adding "needsUXEval to the keywords field" means. Could you please translate into plain English? Thank you. Cathy On 7/28/2017 3:16 AM, Cor Nouws wrote: Hi

Re: [libreoffice-documentation] simplifying documentation

Thanks for your input. These is much to learn! I am referring to the LibreOffice download page. Why? Because it sounds like I am not the only one who is unaware that we need to download a separate file for the Help files. It should be a relatively simple fix to just re-word what is on that

Hi Olivier, Thanks again for the responses. If this has been a problem for a while, I am puzzled about why it has not been fixed. Are you aware of a reason why the download page cannot be re-worded now? To be clear, what are you saying is the best source of information for people who are
