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?

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!
