News:

Topics and Discussion:

Code Colorizing:
     [3/31 - VN]: -
As the developer community uses Writer and Impress to communicate code snippets with their peers, code highlighting or colorizing is a beneficial feature.
Enhancing existing features in Writer (Styles -> Source Text) to include colorizing and indentation can be the starting point. However, this requires UI and Engineering team to take it forward.
     + Base guide need more attention on accuracy rather than color code (SF)
     + Code colorizing is an nice addition (all)

Release Notes:
     [3/31 - VN]:
Including the experimental features in the release notes will be helpful for the authors and reviewers. Is there a possibility to include these items in the release notes?
      + Remind developers to list experimental modes in release notes

+ Do the team wish to change the documentation development workflow and adopt this macro process?
      + covered in the code colorizing topic

* Guides error/mistake report (OH)
    + Need a better way to let readers report mistakes and errors.
       + Mailing List ?
       + Bugzilla ?
       + Redmine ?
       + Ask (aka Discourse)?
    + We need to clearly inform user where to report (e.g. in the Preface)
      + Ask Advise to experts
      + Nextcloud app for tracking issues?

Some reports followed in Bugzilla:
* 145916 – Writer Guide confuses AutoText with Macro

* 145917 – Getting Started Guide, Chapt 13 on Macro: confusing, repetitive, and not well organized

Meeting ajourned
Next meeting : *THURSDAY* April 14th 2022 at 18:00 UTC.

Please, next time discuss the issue of not cleaning the odt files, which is
stopping the l10n process of guides.
Therefore none of the 7.3 guides is yet "completed".
