Hi,
I'm with the OpenOffice.org code base since the very first beginning.
While still being an Oracle employee, my engagement here will be on an
individual base.
Here are some aspects of my OOo history in a nutshell:
- started at Star Division as lead developer of the Impress application
C++ implementation in core and UI, integration of the Drawing Layer,
Edit Engine, SFX, etc.
- project lead of the graphics project at OOo
kicked off the graphics project which includes Impress, Draw, Chart,
Drawing Engine, etc.
- project lead of the i18n project at OOo
kicked off the i18n project which focus on all aspects of
internationalization and Unicode support
- co-lead of the performance project at OOo
kicked off the performance project which takes care of startup and
load/save performance
- member of the OOo engineering steering committee
- coaching internal (at Star Division, Sun and Oracle) and external
developers over years, intensive team building
- deep knowledge about the office market and product requirements
- deep knowledge about building and delivering OOo releases in time and
in best quality
ODF related work
- helped to initiate the ODF standardization at OASIS
- helped to initiate the ODF Toolkit project at odftoolkit.org
- member of the engineering steering committee of the odftoolkit.org project
I would love to see one united OpenOffice.org project and hope that this
Apache project can be the base of all OOo flavors.
Regards,
Dieter

By my count we have now have over 60 individuals listed on as proposed
committers for the Apache OpenOffice project. I think this is a
respectable start, though obviously the project will need to have a strong
commitment to recruiting additional developers and growing the project
further,
On the list are many names on the list familiar to me, some from the
OpenOffice.org community, some ODF experts, some involved in training and
certification, some in globalization, some from downstream projects,
commercial and open source, Symphony, RedOffice, EducOOo, even some TDF/LO
names.
There are also a lot of names that I do not recognize. This is good as
well. I may have need of some new friends soon ;-)
I think it would be good if the proposed committers who have not yet done
so, could post a quick note to the list, to introduce yourself and your
interest in this project. Think of this as an opportunity to introduce
yourself to your future collaborators on Apache OpenOffice.
Regards,
-Rob
