Hi everyone.
Just joined up as a volunteer.
A bit about me: former QA tester for three years and now starting up as a
technical writer.
I want to help out with documentation but not sure if there's anything in
particular I should be focused on.For a start I just looked in the wiki for
pages marked as needing help/editing and started into editing those pages.
Is there anything more pressing I should be working on? Or any other advice
to bestow upon me?
Much appreciated.

Hell-o Erica;
Welcome to Apache OpenOffice and the documentation team. If you haven't
already looked at it
<http://openoffice.apache.org/orientation/intro-doc.html> is a good
place to start.
Updating those older pages is always a help. The draft for the 4.0 user
guide is growing here:
http://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/UserGuide (there is a link
to the "status page" at the end). There are several missing pages and
holes on the existing ones, but an easy start would be to proofread the
existing pages and check the information for "accuracy". Note that this
guide is aimed to AOO 4.0, so there are instructions on the guide that
do not completely correspond to the stable builds (like "menu Tools →
Options → Apache OpenOffice": on 3.4.1 you'll find "OpenOffice.org"
there). There is a status page at
http://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/UserGuide/Status that we
use to track what has been done.
If you have any questions please drop a line here and we will get back
to you with an answer.
Regards
Keith
