If you point them to the first orientation module that will explain how to sign up for mailing lists: http://openoffice.apache.org/orientation/intro-contributing.html And in general, if someone expresses interest in all areas (qa, doc, C+,etc.) then I would send them to the root orientation page and have them read a little about each one, to decide what they want to do: http://openoffice.apache.org/orientation/index.html -Rob > 2013/1/29 Andrea Pescetti <pesce...@apache.org> > >> Forwarding Fan Zheng's answer (below) to Noryant, who is not subscribed to >> this mailing list.
