How may I assist?
Also making inquiry as to how I might become employed by Open Office at
a future time. I have been accepted by the Converges company to become
an outbound Customer Service Rep, so do I have qualifications if Open
Office has a need for an overnight Customer Service or Sales position.
Thank you,

 Hello:

 My name is Kathryn O'Donoghue and I am a PhD candidate in English and a 
 lecturer (English) at Queens College, CUNY. I would be interested in helping

A number of people involved in the Apache OpenOffice.org project also
work in parallel on the LibreOffice project. As such, I'm allowing
myself to speak up here.

In the LibreOffice Documentation project
(http://www.libreoffice.org/get-involved/documenters/) we have a
number of live and interesting work projects to offer you, that would
enable you to practice your expertise and gain Open Source experience
and kudos for your future career.

The LibreOffice Documentation project has excellent technical
facilities to practice and expand your team collaboration experience,
and we can liaise with you to define an interesting work project on
which you can work at your own pace with backup and advice from other
team members.

May I suggest that you consider joining our Documentation team mailing
list and come talk to us?

Subscribe to: documentation+subscr...@global.libreoffice.org

All the best,

Hi,

My name is Gaurav, and I am a 4th year student at the University of Waterloo
in Ontario, Canada, studying Rhetoric and Professional Writing. I found out
about Open Office from a technical communications website which highly
recommended writing for the projects within your website for the purposes of
building a strong technical writing portfolio, as well as improving writing
skills in general.

I would love to contribute to the User Guide (or wherever else you have
positions that need to be filled) and write for your website. I have
completed two separate co-ops (paid internships) at Side Effects Software (
www.sidefx.com) and Sybase (www.sybase.com) and have worked on User Guides,
Developer Guides,  as well as general instructional How-Tos during these
internships.

Hopefully I can contribute to your site and continue building my experience!

Thank you for your time,


Gaurav
