Hi John,

... But for systematic documentation under the auspices of openoffice.org, there seem to be two repositories which, frankly, I can't tell apart:
     wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/
     documentation.openoffice.org/
*both* of which are fed from documentation developed at
     oooauthors.org
and elsewhere.  For example, the tutorials pages
     <http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/Tutorials>
and  <http://documentation.openoffice.org/tutorials/>
both seem to carry the same content (just somewhat differently formatted). Why is that?

I assume there is some reason for this divided organization, but I still don't see what that is - and have finally decided that my learning curve could be improved by asking for help on that point. Can someone help me sort out the documentation model?

welcome to the web pages of the OOo documentation project.

You already found the two entry portals. The page documentation.openoffice.org is the normal project page, like all other entry pages (projectname).openoffice.org. The Wiki page exists because the documentation project wants to simplify collaboration. Every registered user can edit and add pages on the Wiki. That's really easy on a Wiki, while it needs some more efforts on a "normal" web page. The contents should be the same if possible, just the layout looks a bit different.
