To get started with OpenOffice.org development see: > http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Development If working directly on the product itself scares you, you will find that there is a lot to be achieved with Extensions. You can get started really quick using the NetBeans integration: > http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/OpenOffice_NetBeans_Integration Also note that there is the education project to help students to get involved in the project: > http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Education_Project Also note that there are various ways to get in touch with the devs directly: > http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Communication > http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/IRC_Communication IRC is a great way to get started. Sometimes you will find grumpy old veterans in our IRC channels -- dont let them scare you, they are just ... grumpy. ;) Best Regards, Bjoern P.S.: The wiki in general is very active is used heavily by many subprojects of OpenOffice.org. Its a good point to get started. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@openoffice.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@openoffice.org
