The next steps are dependent on where you feel most comfortable. All of the Introductory material and the Writer Guide need to be accuracy checked against Version 4.1.2 of the OpenOffice software. This entails opening AOO 4.1.2 and then following the steps in the wiki page to make sure they indeed get the result proper result; eg. if the wiki says click file->save as to save a new document, does doing that in v4.1.2 bring up the Save as Dialog for you to name the document and decide where to save it. If you are more interested in writing than there are numerous pages that either need to be written or sections expanded. If this is where your interest lies than check the status document and pick one that needs doing and start working on it. Just remember to add your signature to the Authors line and let the list know what you are going to work on and when you start and end. Lastly there is proof reading and editing a document. This entails reading the document for accuracy, and also for use of proper grammar and spelling etc. and then making those changes to the document. All of these roles need to be done for each separate wiki page. Rule of thumb is if you Author it someone else needs to proofread and Accuracy check it. The status document at https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/UserGuide/Status is where we document what has been done and what still needs done for each page in the User Guides. Take a look at that and see what you feel comfortable attempting and go for it. Just remember to let the list know what you are working on and when you finish and to sign the status doc by entering 4 tildes next to what you did. Any questions you have or suggestions on how to make this process easier bring them to the list. *All* communication around the documentation should take place on this list so that all members of the team are aware of what is going on.
