I tried sending an email to the subscription department and a permanent error message was sent back to my email address. I have C++ skills and I am a novice- beginner with a lot to learn and I am willing to learn. I have skills in HTML5, CSS, bootstrap and JavaScript for making websites. I am willing to work on anything that involves coding software with C++ to improve, test, and find bugs for Open Office Software. I would also like to work with a website to make new features, work on bugs, test, and anything that needs to be done. I do not know how to do everything but I am willing to learn what I do not know to fix the problem. I have Packt as a learning resource that could help me when I need to learn something coding or website related. I have been studying for many years and I am looking to get in the field someday. Contributing to Open Office would be a great way to add to my portfolio. > >Sent from Mail<https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=550986> for Windows
Greetings Mike, and welcome to Apache OpenOffice; This is indeed the right place to get started with the project. There was a name change for this mailing list to [email protected]. To subscribe send a blank e-mail to [email protected]. You will receive a reply to that asking you to confirm that it is you. Reply to that mail and you will get a reply saying that you are subscribed. Be sure to check your spam folder as some mail clients will send them there. The project is always looking for people with your skills. The code is written primarily in c++, though there are other languages used as well. The first things we usually suggest for new developers are to subscribe to the developer mailing list, and to make their first build of AOO (Apache OpenOffice). For the mailing list just send a blank e-mail to [email protected]. This is the main mailing list for development, as well as where project-wide discussion takes place. For building AOO, there is a build guide on our Media Wiki at https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/Building_Guide_AOO. The AOO code is a complex system so when you have questions ask them either here or on the development list. There is also set of orientation pages available at https://openoffice.apache.org/orientation/index.html that will give you background on the project as well as the Apache Software Foundation (ASF) that we are a part of. Again Welcome to AOO and I look forward to seeing your contributions. Regards Keith N.
