[FM Discuss] Introducing Myself, OpenOffice.org Manual.

[adam hyde]

real nice to meet you Austin.

I agree with your assessment of the OOo manual. It needs to be updated
big time...many people dont know, for example, that OOo can be used for
presentations...there is probably a series of manuals waiting your
attention ;)
