Here's my recommendation.
1. Do not wait for 4.2. Use the available energy and volunteer power to
advance the Guides for 4.1.
2. Do not ever tie yourself to a speculative schedule not under your control.
Not ever.
3. When 4.2 ships or is ready for/in beta, ship a supplement. There are not
supposed to be breaking changes. Probably will though. Just make a quick
supplement that can be used in the interim before new 4.2 documents are
available. The supplement will also earn feedback for things that people
notice that are not covered or need to be covered better, and that will lead to
supplement updates and also improved 4.2 documents.

Thanks for your recommendation Dennis. It was an approach I hadn't
thought of. I am hoping that I will from the other members of the team
as well so that we can come to consensus on the path.

Subject: Thoughts for moving forward
With the Getting Started Guide done, and the Writer and Calc Guides ready for
review; it is time to consider how we want to move ahead.
I see 2 paths forward.
Each has advantages and disadvantages that should be discussed
1) continue working on the rest of the Guides for 4.1
Advantage is it gets a full set of up to date guides available
Disadvantage is it cuts down time for preparing the changes for
4.2
2) Get the Writer and Calc Guides finished and start working on the
guides for 4.2.
Advantage is it gives the Team more time to prepare the changes
for 4.2, which could be extensive
Disadvantage is that the road-map for a 4.2 release is still
very fluid with no clear end in sight.
Please respond with your thoughts on the best way forward.
Regards
Keith
