Even though hundreds of people are members of OOoAuthors and/or the OOo Documentation Project, very few actually contribute to writing, reviewing, or editing of user-documentation content (whether for books or on the wiki). A few years ago OOoAuthors at least had many more active members.


Is it still needed to sign a license agreement and send it somewhere before you can publish any works as a new author?

I read this is needed for code, see the paragraph near the end of page http://www.openoffice.org/dev_docs/guidelines.html - but I don't know about documentation authors.

This might drive away many possible authors, just because there are so many other projects in the world that might need support and don't throw in some legalese stuff.
