<p>I did not submit any changes yet. Jon and I agreed that
structural changes were needed as well as some guidelines around
the writing style. I have made quite a lot of progress along those
lines but due to the size of the changes I need a sounding board
to review what I have done before publishing and going further.
Jon and I had been doing that before he became ill. <br>
</p>
<p>I have pushed my changes to my github repo.</p>

<p>I am just editing the XML directly. Its a bit painful but it
works.</p>

<div dir="ltr">I had a few questions about the KStars Handbook.
<div><br>
</div>
<div><b>Background and Thanks:</b></div>
<div>I had thought that it was not being updated for some
technical reason, but then Patrick pointed out that it is now
being updated again. Thanks very much to whomever fixed that!</div>

</div>
<div>I guess the right url for the handbook is <a rel="nofollow

moz-do-not-send="true">https://docs.kde.org/trunk5/en/kstars/kstars/</a> and
that it was updated on 3/11/2021. How often is it updated from
source?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Yuri: I saw you added a section on the terrain feature.
Thanks!!</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><b>Questions:</b></div>
<div>I'm curious who is currently working on it. Is there a
"Handbook leader"?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Yuri: Are you "in charge"? Are you actively modifying
things, or planning on writing sections or organizing more? <br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Ken: I know Ken was looking at updating things, but I don't
know if you (Ken) submitted changes, or what. If you have,
what are your thoughts/progress?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I also think that at a high level, Ekos could be emphasized
more. For example, on the first table-of-contents page, Ekos
should rise to the top level (and, for example be "6. Ekos")
and the top paragraph could be broken in 2, etc etc. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Should someone who has the time go through it, and
re-organize? Is this already happening? (I'm not volunteering,
but would be excited to see it happen, and would be happy to
do sections, especially for the parts of Ekos/KStars I've
modified the past couple years).</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Is there a WYSIWYG docbook editor that people use, or do
people just edit the XML?</div>
<div><br>
