Hi Hinrich,

We are not talking about the same page. In fact the english version gave me the hint what to do. The german page http://oooauthors.org/de/ did not. It has been changed as Marko pointed out.

Okay, good  :-)
And I'm glad the site is getting better.


Yes, naturally. Most newcomers are hesitant, and it's important to make the process easy and make them feel welcome.

An example would have been helpful, the email of somebody else, who did this before, just to lower the hurdle.

I don't understand this part.  :(


I'm not sure I understand this. Could you elaborate? How would we used a structured feedback form in this project? (writing documentation).

The origin of this idea is a marketing approach: Do it with one single click, instead of asking three times for a permission. Use a given form to introduce yourself:
I want ... as my username
I am an OpenOffice.org developer     No/Yes since
I am an OpenOffice.org user        No/Yes since
I have experience in teaching OpenOffice.org     No/Yes since
My special application is ( )writer ( )draw ( )math ...
I am experienced in producing screenshots No/Yes
My professional background is......
I would mostly work in this language...
I would appreciate to have a tutor, please name me one
Here is my further comment:

But we don't currently ask any of these except for the username. Do you think we need to ask those other questions?

Another "complication" here is that I'm not really an expert in Plone. I wouldn't know how to add those questions to a form and make them do something useful. Maybe Marko does. But in any event, do you think it's important that the potential volunteer answer those questions?

Cheers,
Daniel.
