Hi :) I know all this got a little off-topic in some ways but it was really helpful to me ! :)
I think it is good to have a mailing list that deals with other office issues. We have helped people deal with issues that are really their OS rather than really being a LibreOffice issue (although that is sometimes just by sign-posting them to relevant other forums). It seems like website editing is in the job description of a much wider range of normal office workers now. I've seen it in the job description of marketing jobs and for a straight "Receptionist". It is still a little unusual, of course, but editing content is becoming easier for normal office workers with all the wysiwyg editors and such. Of course design and maintenance still needs a fair bit of expertise in IT but content is hopefully becoming easier. So, many thanks to Paul! Regards from Tom :) On 11 March 2015 at 15:42, Paul D.
