Hi,

Thanks, Jean, for the account.

For the moment I'll work with the German documentation team.
I plan to work on English docs as well, once I'm more familiar with the process.

Regards,
Franziska

I've wanted to make a contribution to an open source project for a long

About a month ago I started a course to become a technical writer and would
like to help writing documentation for LibreOffice.

I'm in the process of reading the documents on
http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation/Development.

I would like to have a user account for the ODFauthors site and some
suggestions about where help is needed.

I know the Writer best, followed by Impress and Calc. I have used Draw a few
times, but I've never tried out Base.

As requested, I've created your account for the ODFAuthors website.
You should receive an email with instructions on how to set your
password.

In addition to Klaus-Jürgen's suggestion about German documentation,
you are welcome to work on English docs as well. At this time we are
getting ready to update the user guides to LOv4.0. There are also
other things you could work on if you prefer; see the "Easy Hacks"
page, http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation/Easy_hacks and
especially the "More complex tasks" part of that page,
http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation/Easy_hacks#More_complex_tasks

We won't have a beta of LOv4.0 until December, but there is an
extensive features list on the wiki, so we can work on the first step
of determining which topics should go into which chapters of which
user guide books. We can also look at the books in terms of any
improvements that might need to be made, for consistency or topic
order or level of detail or whatever.

The features list for v4.0 is here:
http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleaseNotes/3.7

The books will also need to include features from v3.6 and in some
cases v3.5. Those lists are here:
