[eLML News] OpenOffice Plugin for eLML release (beta01)

[<joe...@id...>]

Dear eLML-News subscribers,
We are happy to announce the first beta release of Andr=E9 Lochers =20
OpenOffice Plugin for eLML. With this Plugin you can with no prior =20
XML knowledge easily create new lessons within OpenOffice and export =20
them as valid eLML (XML) lesson file. Please note that this beta =20
release does not allow yet the import of existing eLML lessons. This =20
is due to the fact that some elements are not supported yet by the =20
editor. Have a look at the compliance list that is listed in the help =20=

file available within the package.

Up to now the editor has been tested on Windows XP and various Linux =20
flavors in OpenOffice 2 and on Mac OSX in NeoOffice 2. Andr=E9 Locher, =20=

a computer science student who created this editor, would be happy to =20=

receive further compatibility or performance feedback by other users. =20=

Feel free to contact him at and...@id.... Please do read =20
the short help.pdf file (included in the package) carefully before =20
installing and using the editor. Have fun!

About the German Wikipedia: The eLML entry has been deleted some days =20=

ago. Although we had 14 votes for eLML and only 2 against it, the =20
admin decided that the project is irrelevant and deleted it. There is =20=

yet another discussion going on about this deletion but I dont think =20
this will change anything. If you would like to read and/or =20
participate this discussion in German, point your browser to:
