Hi all - <br>Absolutely, we can start with those chapters and add more later as we go. I'll also ensure the title is "Etoys Reference Manual". Sounds great. I've also added Etoys to the Sugar/OLPC Activity Tutorials area on the Main page. <br>
<br>For you Etoys fans, I know you're out there, now's your chance to work on a reference manual for Etoys. The chapters are in place - feel free to add content as you see fit. :)<br>
<br>Thanks,<br>Anne<br><blockquote style="margin: 1.5em 0pt;"> <table><tbody>

Hi Rita -<br>
Great to hear!<br>
<br>
Writing a TOC is a good idea. If you write a TOC outline beforehand and email it to me, I can set up each chapter according to the outline, which saves someone else the work.<br>

Hi Anne,<br>
<br>
thanks for your answer! The draft outline would be:<br>
<br>
<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">
1. Introduction<br>
2. Getting started<br>
3. User Interface<br>
4. Tiles<br>
5. Objects<br>
</blockquote>
<br>
It's possible that we later want to add something else, but that should be no problem?<div><br>

<br>
If you have a specific book title in mind that would appear in the FLOSS Manuals URL, let me know also.<br>

"Etoys Reference Manual"<br>
<br>
I think it should be within the OLPC&Sugar section.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>

Hi all,<br>
<br>
I would like to use Floss manuals as tool to write an Etoys documentation. That could probably be part of OLPC and Sugar and could be named "Etoys Activity". What do I have to do? Should I prepare a TOC before we start, or can that easily be extended while writing? Also, I would like to have translations from the beginning, surely Spanish, Portuguese and German, but other languages as well, as soon as people tell me that they will start translating. Please let me know what else I have to do to getting started.<br>
<br>
Greetings,<br>
Rita<br>
