Dear Recruitment list, my name is Arrigo Marchiori. I have given very small contributions to the OpenOffice code in the past, in the form of bug reports and patches. At the moment, there are three open pull requests I proposed on GitHub.
Lately, I have been trying to invest more of my free time into this project, as I see quite some room for improvement and I would like to help shape this great program, that I use for my daily work. I am already subscribed to the dev@ mailing list. Today I found the "Orientation" section of the web site and... here is my first step, introducing myself on this list. I am not a rockstar, neither a programming genius. My computing skills include C, C++ and Python, that I use at work on PC and on embedded systems. I have experience of Linux (Ubuntu, openSUSE) and FreeBSD systems. I can work under Microsoft Windows but it is not my platform of choice. My native language is Italian. I hope my English is... acceptable. Being blessed by a family and a daily job, I can only offer my free time to this project, and even not 100% of it. But if you will be willing to accept my contribution, I will be honored to help. Regards, -- Arrigo Marchiori (rigo) http://rigo.altervista.org
