For anyone interested in learning about QA stuff I recommend reading https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/BugTriage which breaks down workflow relatively well. And yes, I do invite everyone to participate in our triage competition/event and to join our QA channel where you'll find quite a few helpful people to get you started :) Hope that didn't come off as rough, just want to be clear that the top section is meant to be for people who know what they are doing - and learning requires individuals to be a little proactive. Plenty of people (myself included) offer help all the time, definitely willing to meet people half way if they want to join - you (Tom) know more than most that we could surely use the help :) Warm Regards, Joel -- *Joel Madero* LibreOffice QA Volunteer jmadero....@gmail.com -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: users+unsubscr...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
