Hi,
I've been following the development of OpenOffice.Org for a while now. While OpenOffice.org isn't quite to the point that I can completely dump MS Office in favor of OpenOffice.org for day-to-day use, the stability and feature set are impressive (particularly the PDF support). In some respects, Writer seems a little more polished than MS Word. It wouldn't surprise me to see OpenOffice.org become a viable alternative to MS Office within the next year or two. Getting to the point, I've been impressed with what the community has accomplished, and I'd certainly like to contribute what I can to the project. Since I'm clueless when it comes to programming languages, I was thrilled to find an area where I could put my skills and experience to work. Since I've been working in various technical writing/editorial roles for the last six years (and now that I have the time), the documentation project seems like the perfect fit - assuming you guys need the help, of course. -- J Joyce
