Re: Release Notes for LibreOffice 7.5 and new functionalities

Hi all

I will work today on updating release notes and tagging corresponding enhancement requests in Bugzilla with the whiteboard value "inReleaseNotes:*", but as Jean-Baptiste said, if there is no bug report linked to the new feature, it will easily pass under our radar. Good testing before RC does depend on those release notes a fair bit.

Thank you all!

Hi developers,

It is easier for QA team to test new functionalities if you make them knowlegeable, for example if you describe them in the Release Notes. Yesterday I discovered a new entry "Translate" in the Tools menu of Writer. It is a new functionality that has been recently (2022-10-12) added in Writer : automatic translation using DeepL. Commit is this one : https://git.libreoffice.org/core/+/e20d2de7836da52dbf9e528d1043b1e188097bfd

It was difficult to find some information about this new functionality, because there is no entry in the Release Notes, no bug report in Bugzilla and no blog post. It's a pity because this functionality is very useful, but need some love. It does not work well with our own LibreOffice guides, for example with the preface of the 7.3 guide : https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/images/9/98/GS7300-Preface.odt

I filed this bug report: https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=152247
"Automatic translation does not work with our own documentation guides"

The help pages related to Tools menu should also be updated as well as a page added describing this new functionality.

And a documentation bug entry for new features will also be appreciated. It helps us to keep our records.

Some changes in features (just one line in the RN, with terse contents, corner cases, no images) are missing in our Help pages and Guides too.
