Hi Friends, As the new forum is rapidly being finished, it's probably a good time to formalize the rules and guidelines for it. If anyone is interested in helping to draft this document or documents, please reply here.
Once we have a group, we'll decide exactly how we want tohandle this. When we started on this a couple of years ago, we used FramaPad, which allows users to edit documents live. I found it had the basic features that we needed. Or I think there are other similar types of sites. Although I'd be just as happy to be more old school, and exchange ODT or DOC files. But we can decide as a group.
There aren't really any requirements to participate. Justcare about the forum and how it functions :-)
All best, brynn
I would suggest using ODT. It may not seem initially any better or more convenient, and although not immune to bugs, at least you can be sure it will never contain any tracking code or third party advertising - both of which which are often vulnerable to injecting exploits on your machine.
ODT is awful. LibreOffice is pretty bad. Why not plain text, or if that doesn't work for us, HTML?
