Hi Terrence, The most, erm, interesting, area of OOo for friends of low level C/C++ stuff probably is the bridge code between Binary UNO and the various C++ ABIs (bridges/source/cpp_uno, one sub-directory per ABI). Here it is where calls to C++ member functions are synthesized and synthetic C++ objects are instantiated, to pass UNO method calls back and forth (see udk.openoffice.org for pointers).

Hi Terence, I think it is exemplary of you to get involved. OOo is a great way to pass the time productively and have fun, too. Per already pointed you in the right direction, but I also thought I'd also point out: http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/BugBountyProgram/Issues http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Extensions_development#Ideas Glad to have you with us! You are very welcome in the OOo community and doing good stuff here is an impressive addition to any resume.
