re-branding

Hi :slight_smile:
Is anyone fairly new and looking for a challenge?  An area that is often avoided 'only' needs some re-branding work in it's chapter 2.  It's would help a new person gain an insight into the work the docs team did in producing the 3.3.x guides.  I think Base Chapter 2 needs re-branding but the rest of the heavy lifting has already been done.

It needs a 2nd pair of eyes but since Dan wrote it you don't need to have any idea of how Base works nor iof how the team works.  It's an excellent opportunity to learn a little about Base and complete a task that people will appreciate.

Somewhere there is a wiki-page describing what needs to be done during re-branding.  I think Jean covered most of it in her email about choosing which theme (if you are up for doing screen-shots at the same time) and downloading the right version of LibreOffice but there are other helpful pointers listed somewhere.

Good luck and regards from

Tom,

I know I'm a week behind in responding, but I'd be interested in giving this a whirl if you still need help.

Hi :slight_smile:
That would be great, if you are up for the challenge!

At a guess i think the Base chapters are waiting in the relevant folders in ODFAuthors.

LO.

Hi :slight_smile:
Ouch, sorry for the timing there!  It's always good to check these things so i'm glad we did!
Thanks Dan :slight_smile:

Meanwhile, I should have no trouble finding something else to do!

Thanks,

Several chapters in Getting Started and Writer Guide are still needing review. :slight_smile:

Jean

I'm on it.

On that point Dan, did you get my email of a few days ago offering
help?

I've been losing outgoing email recently, so I just thought I'd
check.

One small step for mankind...

Yes I did. I'm working on getting the chapter finished.

Hi :slight_smile:
It's difficult to walk away when you are halfway through something but would it be a good idea to leave the re-branding for other people and move on to the next chapter?

We have never been in this position before and it didn't look like we would ever get here but there seem to be a few people willing to help with Base now!  I think that is largely due to the work of Dan but also Mark, Alex, Hazel, Jean and others have been helped push this forwards.  I think the turning point was when Dan put that first chapter on the wiki.

Good work chaps!
