Re: [libreoffice-users] new book

Hi Tim :)
You and Drew have been added to a very tiny and extremely exclusive list of 
people and places that the Docs Team alerts when a chapter gets published (or 
re-published).  Hopefully that will help with the NA Dvd project.  

Regards from
Tom :)

The fact that the documents now have a date after each one helps people 
know if they have the latest version of that document.  I always want to 
keep my document list as up-to-date as I can.

Of course I have to remember to check the list from time to time to make 
sure I have them.

I keep forgetting to look and then suddenly there is a whole new set of 
documents on the list.  It happened with Calc and Impress.  It could 
happen again when/if the Macro's Guide comes out on that page.

But, to be honest, I did tend to download the whole set of documents 
every so often - when there were no dates listed.
