Hello Shari, Thank for writing and volunteering to help. You can read more about different areas of the project here: http://openoffice.apache.org/get-involved.html As you will see, it takes a lot more than just programmers to make Apache OpenOffice successful. Volunteers are welcome in any of these areas. We're currently in the testing phase for our 4.1 release. If that interests you at all, we certainly need help there. You can write to our QA mailing list at q...@openoffice.apache.org to get started there. We also have new volunteer "orientation modules" on the website that give more background on the project and how it works. It also describes to get involved in areas like documentation, marketing, etc.: http://openoffice.apache.org/orientation/index.html Let me know if you any questions getting started.
