Drop us a mail introducing yourself a little more when you're ready.
I can handle that right now.
As I said, I've been using OOo for a long time. I wish I could remember
the first release I downloaded, but alas the number is lost in the mists
of my mind. I've often thought about becoming a contributor, so I'm glad
to have finally taken that first step.
I've been involved with a project something like this before. For several
years, I was a member of a volunteer group called the Ambassadors,
dedicated to increasing use of the Opera browser in the U.S. Even headed
up the group for a while, until it was absorbed into other, larger
community marketing efforts. Among other things, we had an active mailing
list, Web site, newsletter, merchandise, user groups, etc. I'm also an
Opera tester.
Other stuff: I'm the editor/writer/photographer/jack-of-everything-else
for a weekly newspaper in a small Northern Michigan town -- Manistique,
look at the very tip-top of Lake Michigan to find it. I'm also a freelance
writer, published a few books and whatnot. Married, twin daughters in
college. Oh, yeah, and along with everything else, I'm learning to play
the bagpipes.
I look forward to being an active contributor here, whether tossing out an
opinion (I've got lots of 'em; they're cheap) or getting more involved
with writing, editing, whatever.
And don't worry, I'm not afraid to ask stupid questions. I'm actually
pretty darn good at it. :)
