Hi Jan, I read through the pages on gerrit setup (two of them - they seem to be very similar to start with, and I fond that bit confusing!), and started to get onto the gerrit system. Then I found that the commands to use gerrit were totally Unix-oriented so asked on IRC and was pointed to the LO development on Windows wiki page, which implies that I have to install cygwin. Is this necessary just for gerrit registration? I won't be building LO itself, just editing the help files.

I see. gerrit is (just) a review system; in other words, a system that allows everybody to have write access - you can commit and push your changes (to gerrit), where somebody with the appropriate rights will read your change, and either comment on that (so that you know what to fix), or will merge it to the main git. You need to do a bit of a setup: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/gerrit/setup but then for your work, you'll push very similarly as with the normal git. > I don't have an IRC client (or does WIndows 7 have one built-in - > I've not found it?) so that will be the first thing.

Better if you have an IRC client, but if not, you can join via web too: https://webchat.freenode.net/ Join the #libreoffice-dev channel, I'm sure you'll find many people who will be able to help you with the gerrit setup, if I'm not around or not responding from some reason (I'm "kendy" there).
