Ask/ja

Ask LibreOffice (Ask, AskLibO) is our Q&A site built on top of Discourse.

Purpose
The Ask site provides crowdsourced answers to questions about LibreOffice software and the LibreOffice project.

How to use the Ask site
The easiest way to contribute to the Ask site is to hop in and ask or answer questions.

Rules, Guidelines, and Discussions
We don't really have a lot of rules or guidelines regarding the Ask site yet. We have had a few discussions and have come to consensus on a few topics. For more information on past discussions and future discussion topics, see:
 * Ask/Discussions

Formatting and Markup
The formatting on the Ask site is largely based on. There are some slight differences between some markdown variants and what is enabled on the Ask site, and just to make things interesting, the syntax in Questions and Answers is parsed slightly differently than the syntax in Comments (Bug filed with Askbot).

There are some interesting examples of formatting on the "Playground" Question, which serves roughly the same purpose as a Playground page on a wiki.
