Hi, thanks a lot for your offer!
For this task you can start by checking out the sourcecode, either via SVN at https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/poi/trunk/ or via GIT from the github mirror at https://github.com/apache/poi/ The build-dependencies in this case should only be JDK >= 1.6 and Apache Ant >= 1.8, newer versions should work as well. When you ran a build via "ant compile-all", the necessary third-party-libs should be downloaded and you can then use Eclipse or IntelliJ to load the project and start working on things. For Visio classes look at all the classes named XDGF..., you probably need to look a bit at how the code is structured. Tests for these classes should go into the src/ooxml/testcases folder and naming is usually TestXSDGF... We use JUnit 4 with @Test annotations for newly created tests. Finally you can check coverage of newly created tests either in the IDE or by running "ant -Dcoverage.enabled=true test-ooxml testcoveragereport" which will produce a coverage report under build/coverage/index.html I suggest you take a first look around, ask questions for anything you stumble into and start work on a simple test. When you have a first one we can take a look at it. If you use Git then a fork on Github will work well or simply as files or patches via email. See http://poi.apache.org/subversion.html and http://poi.apache.org/howtobuild.html for some more information about the code and building it. Unfortunately the documentation about XDGF is also lacking a bit. Thanks... Dominik.
