Re: [libreoffice-users] new book

Hi :)
The "Getting Started" guide does have a chapter about Macros and can be 
downloaded separately.  The entire "Getting Started" guide can be bought as a 
book but it might be worth waiting until the 2nd release.  


The wiki page sometimes gets chapters a day or few before they appear on the 
official LibreOffice website but there has been nothing new this week.

Regards from
Tom :)

I have no problems with a copy of the documents from my site being included.

Eventually, however, printed copies will be offered for sale. I have already 
spoken with Jean Weber about making this happen in a way that will involve the 
community hosting and providing the printing with a portion of the sales 
supporting the community. My only point to this is that for the most part, Jean 
Weber knows more about the details related to the stated license or copyright 
and how that works. Note that some documents are already released using this 
model.

I am currently working on one of the getting started Macro chapters for the 
official LO documentation. Hmm, I have no idea if the LO authors group offers 
printed copies yet, or if that is only ODF authors (in my mind, they are 
strongly related).
