[opencms-dev] Two new OpenCms projects started

[Marckus Kraft]

Hi!

Maybe I could TeX at least a part of the documentation, as long as it comes
in a suitable format (i.e. ASCII or HTML) it should be no problem.

We have started to work on two new projects. 
Both of them aim at making the "first steps" with OpenCms easier.

* Documentation / Manuals for first time users [P011] 

We have started a documentation project for first time users of OpenCms. The
goal of this manual is to give an overview of the most important features of
the system. We expect a first draft to be ready in April. The first version
of the manual will be in German (anyone volunteers to provide an english
translation :). 

Small sidenote from me: Anyone out there who would like to typeset this as a
TeX - Document? I think else we might end up with a M$ Word - Doc for that
(well, we _will_ have a PDF, of course).

* Better Examples: News - Ticker [P012] 

To provide some more examples of the OpenCms API features, we are working on
a simple "News - Ticker" module. This will be included in one of the next
releases. 

Best Regards,

Alex.
