Workflow for the Calc 6.2 Guide

One of the decisions from the team was to look at using the TDF maintained
NextCloud (NC) server in the development of the guide.

Currently the TDF wiki lists a workflow expecting the use of the ODFAuthors
website, a site based on Plone, and as such does not include any use of the
online editing and reviewing capabilities available from the NC/LibreOffice
Online resource. This is layout out at this page:
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation/Development/User_Guides

I notice that this particular page is translated for use by four native
language teams also, so I figure I should not just update that today. Or
should I just add a new section there for NC/LibreOffice workflow vs a
separate page?

I'm writing text into a local editor and will wait for any feedback on that
for a bit before I do either an update to that page or add a new one.

A workflow has to have a diagram, right..
Starting from the workflow diagram from the wiki page, covering use of a
shared storage (no online edit) server, put together a first pass with
changes for NC/Libreoffice Online.
Draw file for that at
https://nextcloud.documentfoundation.org/s/45iEFkDbSPGPsL3

@Olivier, the file is saved in my own work space on the server and set you
up with edit capabilities.

If anyone else wants edit rights on that, and you have a NC account, just
let me know and I'll add you also.

Otherwise it can be downloadable by anyone with the link

Of course comments on the ML are most appreciated.

Best wishes,

Drew

Updated that workflow diagram this morning.
Latest here in a jpeg

The .odg file link earlier is also updated.

This change captures the case where the person editing a file offline can,
if it has not changed on the server, simply overwrite the file on the NC
server.

I don't think I have access to Nextcloud. What do I need to do to get it?

Thanks.
