Welcome to Open Source development and Apache OpenOffice, Joash.
We work on voluntary basis and pro bono. I hope this is no issue. Any volunteer work is welcome. We are working on the basis of self organization and initiative.

Dear Sir/Madam My name is Joash Tafadzwa Guchutu. I am a 4th year student at Manicaland State University of Applied Sciences in Zimbabwe studying towards a degree in Mining and Mineral Processing Engineering. I currently do not have any experience in C++, but I am willing to learn. I am more than willing to contribute to an open-source project up to August 2025 when I return back to school to finish my final year. If I find my schedule accommodating, I can even extend my stay. For now, I was hoping I could help with QA, and even maarketing Apache here in Zimbabwe maybe 2 hours a week for this time.
most communication these days is done via [email protected]. I would subscribe there and ask for pointers on our test procedures, what people know. I am not sure how well the situation is.
I would recommend that you write to the dev list, say you want to do qa, and check out what is send to you. If you have an idea do it. We value action over doing.
If you need assistance write to volunteer or dev mailing list.
Looking forward to hearing from you. Regards, Joash
all the best peter
