websites confusions, was: Fw: [libreoffice-users] Text Outlining

Hi :)
I'm not sure which website you are referring to;  the wiki or the official site.  Both are 
currently ina  state of flux.  

The official site is moving to a newer layout but obviously they don't want to throw out everything 
and start again from scratch because that would cut off access to tons of crucial things used by 
people evey day.  So, at the moment we kinda have 2 very different layouts during this 
transistion/migration process.  

The wiki is always in a state of flux and people are welcome to join in with helping smooth things 
out a bit.  Please try to join whichever team's section you want to work on and ask them before 
making radical changes = or at least keep them informed.  

So, it's a known issue and a fair comment.  It's largely due to the rapid on-going expansion of the 
community that once every couple of years a radical revamp is needed.  The current confusions are 
being worked on.  I guuess we should do more to announce it next time and use it as positive 
publicity.  
Apols and regards from 
Tom :)
