Hi Dalwin, and welcome to the Documentation Project. The first thing to do is subscribe to this list, or you won't see any replies. Send a blank email to dev-subscr...@documentation.openoffice.org The Documentation Project has two main mailing lists: dev@documentation.openoffice.org, for discussions related to project infrastructure and policy, and auth...@user-faq.openoffice.org, where writers, editors, reviewers, and others discuss documents they are working on. We recommend you subscribe to each of these mailing lists. To subscribe to the authors list, send a blank email to authors-subscr...@user-faq.openoffice.org To get an overview of the project, look at the Documentation Wiki at http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation There you will find most of the documentation that we have available for OOo. Work on the user guides mainly takes place through the OOoAuthors website, http://oooauthors.org/english Those docs are then make available through the Documentation wiki. Most of the other materials produced and maintained by the Documentation Project, including how-to's, tutorials, and FAQs, as well as documents for system admins, programmers and developers, are wiki-based. So, to work on the FAQs you'll need to get an account on the wiki. BTW, we are in the process of evaluating what the Project is doing and how it's doing it, so some parts of the wiki and the website are being reorganised and rewritten. If some things seem inconsistent or unclear, that's probably why. We also use the wiki for planning purposes. You are welcome to join in. And don't be shy about asking questions on the list when things are unclear.
