Re: [libreoffice-users] Fw: [MariaDB Announce] MariaDB in Athens, Greece -- 11-13 Nov 2011

Hi :)
The documentation team do have a person or 2 trying to work on Base documentation but it's slow 
going and tough work.  Base is quite quirky with apparently some problems being different in 
different releases.  Even though there have not been many "commits" to the code base there do seem 
to be a few people working on the code, again it's tough work and not as fast paced or glamorous as 
the other apps, such as Writer or Calc.  

Also the Faq that is being translated from the excellent French one seems to have a section waiting 
to be added about Base.  

The various different people that work on different aspects of Base can't really communicate with 
each other as there is no list dedicated to Base so it's difficult to build-up any community 
spirit.  However, the situation seems a lot better than it did a few months ago although we still 
need to pull in a lot more people that have experience and understanding of databases.  

Regards from
Tom :)
