Welcome Gilles! We could use some help in writing the Base Guide. (Base
is the database component for OpenOffice.org.
Either Clayton or Jean will be contacting you later with instructions
that you need to get started. In the meanwhile, perhaps you could
describe what types of databases you have worked with. We have a chapter
whose outline is below. If you have experience in this area, you could
prove most beneficial to the writing of this chapter.
I am sending you a copy of this email as I don't know whether you have
subscribed to this mailing list or not yet.
