Try now, it should be fixed and ready to go.

Image attachments are stripped from the mailing list, so we cannot see
your error message.
Can you describe more what you are registering with? We have many
systems that require registration, wikis (we have two of them),
mailing lists, issue trackers, etc. What exactly are you doing, and
what is the error message?
Thanks!

Any ideas?

I'd like to take part in this project. I'm lightly familiar with
Calc and have been using Writer as my main word processor for the
last few months (used to be Word). I also wouldn't mind helping to
write documentation for the other products, would just need time to
familiarize myself with them.
I know that there is documentation for Version 3.3 already so would
this involve updating those docs for a newer version or is this a
complete re-write?
Rakesh T.
Rakesh;
Due to licensing constraints on the 3.3 and earlier documentation the
4.0 documentation is being done as a complete re-write on the the mwiki
under ALV2 license. To see the current stage of the drafts go
http://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/UserGuide and take a look
at them. Anyone can read the wiki anonymously; however if you want to
edit pages you need an account. To create one click the "create account"
in the top left corner of the page and fill in the form and submit it. I
believe we are still enforcing a 4 day wait period after the account is
created before being able to edit anything as an anti-spam measure.
Regards
Keith.

Do we want to have a "call for volunteers" soon? Or do you want
to make more progress first?
-Rob
Today I'm at just four pages to end the first bare-bones draft for
the Writer guide. Beside the fact that I can also write the draft
for a Math guide I think it is time to think about a call for
people that can fill the holes on what I wrote, check my clumsy
grammar and start writing on those topic I cannot write (Calc,
Base, Impress, Draw, Asiatic/complex layout language settings and
macros).
Maybe we can do the call on two steps, calling first on the forums
and users mailing list for people with experience on the program
(on the forums there are many experienced users) and only
afterwards make a more general call: to write a complete user guide
good will is not enough.
What do you think?
Regards Ricardo
I concur that we need to start doing a call for volunteers. A two
step approach that you describe sounds like a good way to start. I
have been going through the introduction sections making grammatical
changes as best that I can, but though English is my native language,
I am by no means a grammatical expert. We need to attract not only
people who can write, but also people who can proof read and edit.
I also agree with your earlier statement that we need to agree soon
on an overall style so that editors and proof readers know what to
edit against, as well as authors to use from the start.
Regards Keith
