Greetings, All! My name is Natalie Kononenko. Nice to meet you!
I am a young ukrainian professional on the quest for acquiring new experience and skills. It has been about two years since I've transferred to Linux and delved into the open source world. One of the most appealing sides of the system is it's extensive documentation. What is more, it is often written with a sensible amount of humour! I'd like to make myself useful to the community by participating in the document project of OpenOffice. Though I am a newbie in techwriting, I could proofread, edit, translate (Russian) and possibly write the chapters of the books in working. I'd like to have the author role please (uid: natkon) in order to have a go at reviewing. Also, could you point me to the chapter that needs extra work done? Right now the whole documenting process seems to me a bit confusing, since there is no practice of _assigning_ chapters to individual users. It seems that some chapters get all the attention while others are left practically untouched. In the outsourcing company that I used to work with, I've seen a neat online solution for project management that helped to see exactly who is doing parts of the assignment and the progresss of it. It looked as something like this http://www.easyprojects.net/QuickTour/project_list.asp . I don't know whether the _assigning_ part is applicable to the open projects like what you're doing here, though. Anyhow, you're doing a great job and I wish to be a part of it. :) Best regards, Natalie Kononenko.
