Greetings Robert, and welcome to OpenOffice (AOO);

The usual first step we recommend is to do a first build which is available
from (https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/Building_Guide_AOO
We also recommend strongly recommend that you subscribe to the development
list. This is where the devs hang out as well as where almost all decisions
are made.dev-subscr...@openoffice.apache.org, You will receive a reply which
may end up in 
your spam folder so be sure to check there.Click reply and you will receive a
reply that you are subscribed.Once you are subscribed, Join in and ask any and
all questions you may have about building AOO our any questions about the
project you may have.
I look forward to seeing on dev@.

Hi alejandro,

Yes the list block is on purpose. If you want to help this is great. But 
we are not able to finance you.


In order to contribute I would subscribe to dev mailinglist instead of 
volunteer or recruitment.


Next step is to make familiar with where we need help. We have in 
general 4 branches where we need volunteers.


1) documentation of the software - requires writing skills

2) translation libraries - requires to know english and some language 
you want to translate too. (The translation is done in a web tool named 
pootle)


3) web development / maintaining our web infrastructure - you may need 
php skills here, and we look into containerization
4) maintaining Apache OpenOffice itself - you need programming skills. 
Depending on which bug you tackle C, C++, perl, python, java, assembler 
skills are asked for.



In order to set you up, Which line does interest you? If you do not have 
the skills you need to build them, but you would still be able to help. 
It is just harder for you ;)



All the best

Peter

Hi Jim,


Thanks for the interest in OpenOffice.

If you are interested in contributing, I suggest to start step by step.

I think the best way is to familiarize with our setup. We offer a github 
[1] presence which makes it easy to access.

Try to sync the code from there. to your system.

And as a next step try to understand how to build OpenOffice from source.

I recommend our wiki guide [2] and Arrigos presentation [3] for starters.


If you have questions or need help please ask.

All the best

Peter

Re: Starting Introduction to Contributing to Apache OpenOffice Module

[Peter Kovacs]

Hi Dineth,

We have following issues we need to look at (without poriorization, they 
are in some aspect all important):


# Fixing bugs

- Here we have especially a short coming on windows.

- We a have a special bugger code that leads to destroy files.

# Update to ODF 1.3 Std.

# Update SDKs for Windows

# Windows 64 Bit

# Move Code to Apple Silicon, and look at Rasperry pie version (Main 
issue is here a piece of code which looks at ABI code)


# replace make file (dmake, gmake with SCON approach)

# update dependencies.

# update code to c++11 standard (we need a strategy here, so that is a 
bit complicated topic)


# integrate diverse patches (they need to be checked, too).

# testing and reviewing Pull request on github.


My recommendation is to look at the build process and understanding that 
first. at least a little. If you have Windows get in touch with dev - 
Mailing list and ask for help since you need a outdated SDK.


If you have more questions I can go into details. OpenOffice is a huge, 
long living code base. It takes some effort to get into the whole code.




All the best

Peter
