Sam;

First let me apologize for this response taking so long. We always
welcome contributions to the documentation effort. As this appears to be
an inquiry from a corporate entity I have forwarded your initial posting
to our Project Management Committee. They should be contacting you directly.

Request to contribute documentation on accessibility

2017-03-13 Thread Sam Peck
Hi everyone.

We just wanted to discuss contributing documentation in the form of "how-to" 
guidance that helps people/instructors create accessible content from Open 
Office authored files for anyone/students.

We thought it might be helpful to contribute content that would appear 
somewhere amongst your on-line user guidance, so Google might pick up questions 
being asked by anyone who might require the guidance documentation, and 
possibly feature the answer in search results. Much like if you searched for 
“save as tagged pdf using Microsoft word 2016”. This does work for the question 
“Saving as tagged PDF using OpenOffice”. Only, coming from an Open Office 
online resource, while structured better might make more an impact and trusted 
if sourced from an Open Office URL.

We have a few flows that are written and edited to start from. Is this 
something you would be interested in see us contribute?

Thank you,
Sam
