Hi Jean, Good to hear from you.
For GS6.0 it might be best if we just refer to the Writer Guide as a whole and maybe refine details of the specific chapter numbers when we get under way with WG6.0. Many thanks for your work on WG5.4, it is going to be a big help. I propose to get the "easy" bits (Preface and Appendices) cleaned up first, then I will try to finalise the Writer chapter. Your writing skills are much better than mine, so it would be much appreciated if you could find time to review this chapter when I am done with it. We are still missing the Getting Started with Base chapter for GS6.0 and I was wondering if any contributors to the previous editions of the Base Guide or Base Handbook might be available and willing to update the GS5.2 chapter. Other than Firebird (still experimental) I am not aware of any major changes in Base, so this should not be an onerous task.
