[SOLVED] User Guide for Zimbra

[gersh]

Anything new on Version 5.0 User Guide? What about the HTML version mentioned earlier? Is that still planned?

Any news on the User Guide for Zimbra 5?

The latest PDF is here: files.zimbra.com/website/docs/ZWC_End_User_Guide_for_5_0.pdf

/community/end_user_guide_and_how_to.html

Thanks for posting the link mmorse.... but...

My excitement was somewhat tempered by the very restrictive copyright notice included in the PDF, see below. Any chance this could be changed so this documentation can be legally used? What's really odd, is that the documentation Copyright Notice is far more restrictive than the license Zimbra (the software) is released under, Licensing for open source server & client technology: enterprise messaging and collaboration software by Zimbra.

Another problem is that this page, Documentation for the open source Zimbra Collaboration Suite; email, contacts, and group calendaring states:

Below is end user oriented documentation for using the Zimbra Web Client. Both PDF and HTML content are provided.

But there is no HTML version available on that page.

The Zimbra 4.5 user guide was made available in MS Word format. Would it be possible to also make this new revision available in MS Word or Open Office format? In fact, if the documentation were licensed under the ZPL or YPL then it would be a given that the source code to the PDF would be available to the community to improve, re-use and distribute.

Thanks!


PS. I know with this post I will sound like a very ungrateful bastard, so I just want to make it clear that I very MUCH appreciate the effort, time & work put into updating the Zimbra user guide for v5. So thank you!
