[tdf-discuss] A how to

To keep from expanding an already over used thread I started a new one 
for this.  Consider it as different view of a dead topic if you wish but 
it is written to help others understand ways to help and provide 
something beneficial to the community.

Some weeks back I had an idea that I though might benefit Libo, a change 
in the way Calc sheets were copied and renamed.  I sent a email to 
Michael with an idea.  He replied and suggested that I add the idea to 
the Easy Hacks wiki, http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Easy_Hacks , 
which I did.  Much to my surprise it was not to long I saw that one of 
the developers had picked it up and was working on the idea.  The 
suggestion has now been added to the mail branch and should show up in 
the 3.4 version of Libo.  The item has been moved to the "Completed" 
Easy Hacks section, 
http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/Easy_Hacks/Completed#Change_Sheet_copy_process 
.  To see how it will look see 
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/5215855/c-m-process.pdf , this is screen shots 
showing current and future looks.

I wanted to try this myself but not being a programmer and not knowing 
where to even start I when to those that know how and when to make the 
change/addition.  I would suggest to others, like myself, do the same.

The saying "Help me to change the things I can, accept the things I 
can't and the wisdom to know the difference" sure comes to mind sometimes.
