My name is Cale Sommers and I am interested in volunteering in
documentation. I live in Sacramento, CA and I am looking to become a
Technical Writer. I have my Bachelors Degree in Communication
Studies, but no experience as of yet. While reading about how to get
started as a Technical Writer, I found an article that I try
volunteering and that lead me to OppenOffice.org. I have alot of free
time so I am interested in jumping right in, though I am not sure
how. I will continue to read the modules and go from there.
Welcome to OpenOffice! An impressive skills list like this, coupled with
plenty of free time, is definitely a useful resource for our project.
We have lots of tasks where you could be helpful. But, as a first step,
please subscribe to the doc mailing list, or you will miss discussions
and further answers: send an empty e-mail to
doc-subscr...@openoffice.apache.org and reply to the confirmation
request you will receive.
The main project we are working on at the moment is the User Guide. You
can find draft pages at
http://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/UserGuide
and, since it is a wiki, you can just register and start editing pages.
Of course, for any major changes or more information please refer to
this discussion list.
Regards,
Andrea.
