Hello Maho-San,

thank you very much for your report. Getting students interested into OpenOffice.org development and especially into QA is very welcome. We've already been working together with several universities so far like the University of Szeged in Hungary where students did source code quality research and there were internship programs with other CS schools.

eg.

A good starting point would be to ask the students about their computer science skills and get some more detailed information about what they plan to do. If they 'just' want to contribute to the QA project then they could specialize into doing application QA as an example. Please ask them to introduce themselves within the QA mailing list. If they're interested into doing development then they could join the education project http://education.openoffice.org/ and they might introduce themselves at the OpenOffice.org developer mailing list [email protected]. Maybe they like to start development with an OpenOffice.org extension if they want to develop something.

On 2010/11/15, I did a lecture at NAIST (Nara Institute of Science and 
Technology),
titled "How academia can participate to OpenOffice.org", slide is uploaded
too (in Japanese). Students are really enthusiastic and motivative. Really
wonderful.

I discussed with Ihara-san, who is a PhD candidate and two students
of Prof. Matsumoto-lab. They are interested in FLOSS development process,
and of course, QA process.

I'm wondering how we collaborate, and improve our process.

[BTW: I have long been waiting and looking for such collaboration.
and thanks for Dr. Komachi-san for invitation.]

Kind regards, Joost
