Thanks. Please review the existing guide so you get an idea of what is involved. You can see this on-line at http://api.openoffice.org/DevelopersGuide/DevelopersGuide.html or as a pdf from http://api.openoffice.org/docs/DevelopersGuide/DevelopersGuide.pdf This is a VERY large document but with some analysis I think we could start by figuring out exactly which subjects should be tackled first. I have looked and, at this point in time, an uncertain where to begin. So you input will be welcome. Lastly, there has been some indication that the current devguide and some others will be made avaiable to the community for work. Schedule for this is unknown but shouldn't preclude us from having a go. > I might volunteer to help with the Dev Guide.

I do not have your openoffice username so could not add it to the cc list of the task. Please do this. -- G. Roderick Singleton <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> OpenOffice.org
