+ <h1 id="level-1-volunteers">Level 1 Volunteers</h1>
+<p>As a volunteer at Level 1 you will gain basic familiarity with the Apache Software Foundation and how it works,
+get signed up for various important online project services, and introduce yourself to the other volunteers on
+the project's mailing mailing list.</p>
+<p>Level 1 is focused on connecting you to the project.</p>
+<h2 id="steps-to-complete-level-1">Steps to Complete Level 1</h2>
+<ol>
+<li>
+<p>It is important that you understand a little about the Apache Software Foundation and OpenOffice,
+what it is, how it is organized and how the Apache OpenOffice Project fits into the overall Foundation. This is partially
+organizational knowledge and a little history. But it is important for understanding how things work here,
+and understanding the culture of this open source community. Suggested readings are:</p>
+<ol>
+<li><a href="http://apache.org/foundation/how-it-works.html">How It Works</a> (to learn about how the ASF is organized and works)</li>
+<li><a href="http://www.apache.org/foundation/faq.html">ASF FAQ's</a> (browse to see if it answers any questions you might have)</li>
+<li><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenOffice">OpenOffice Wikipedia article</a> (for basic historical background)</li>

+</ol>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p>As a globally-distributed all-volunteer open source project, there is never a time or place where we can
+all meet together in the same room or even on a telephone call. Because of this, and out of respect for
+everyone's busy and varying schedule, we use mailing lists to coordinate our work, make proposals, gather
+consensus and resolve community issues. There are three mailing lists that every Volunteer should be on:</p>
+<ol>
+<li><a href="http://incubator.apache.org/openofficeorg/mailing-lists.html#development-mailing-list">ooo-dev</a> This is the
+main mailing list for the project, and gets a lot of traffic. But this is where project-wide discussions occur.</li>
+<li><a href="http://incubator.apache.org/openofficeorg/mailing-lists.html#announce-mailing-list">ooo-announce</a> This
+is the official announcement list for the project. It is used for announcing things like new releases,
+security patches, conferences, etc.</li>
+<li><a href="http://incubator.apache.org/openofficeorg/mailing-lists.html#users-mailing-list">ooo-users</a> This is our users
+list and is one way in which we provide support to end users. Although you may not be interested specifically
+in user support, it is still recommended that you follow this list, even if just to get a feel for
+user concerns, problems, feature ideas, etc.</li>
+</ol>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p>You can also review other mailing lists we host and which may be of interest, including ones focused on
+specific <a href="http://incubator.apache.org/openofficeorg/mailing-lists.html">project functions</a> and
+<a href="http://incubator.apache.org/openofficeorg/native-lang.html">native languages</a>.</p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p>One of the first practical tests each Volunteer faces is dealing with the volume of emails that comes from
+participation in an open source project like this. A good email client for this kind of work will support
+folders, rule-based folder assignments, and most importantly quote collapsing. A common practice is to make
+a separate folder for each Apache mailing list and define a rule to move incoming emails directly into that folder.
+If you have a question on how to configure your email client to do these things, try your help files,
+or a web search first, and if that fails post a question to the ooo-dev list.</p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p>Because our mailing lists can be busy, and we're not all native English speakers, and because email text is
+a crude medium which makes it hard to express nuanced emotions, we need to be careful and tolerant in how we
+use it. Please read over our <a href="http://incubator.apache.org/openofficeorg/mailing-lists.html#participation-guidelines">Participation Guidelines</a>
+and <a href="http://incubator.apache.org/openofficeorg/list-conduct.html">List Conduct Guidelines</a> for more information.</p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p>Now that you have signed up for the mailing lists, you should send a note to ooo-dev list and introduce
+yourself to the other Volunteers. Who are you, where are you from, what are you interested in? These are all
+good things to cover.</p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p>Aside from the mailing lists there are several online services that every volunteer should be signed up for:</p>
+<ol>
+<li>Our <a href="http://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Main_Page">MediaWiki</a> (sometimes called MWiki) used for user documentation and many other things.</li>
+<li>Our <a href="https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OOOUSERS/Wiki+Home">ConfluenceWiki</a> (sometimes called CWiki) where we do project planning.</li>
+<li>Our <a href="">Bugzilla database</a> (sometimes called BZ) where we report and track status on bugs.</li>
+<li>Our <a href="http://forum.openoffice.org/">Community Forums</a> These are available in several languages.
+This is the primary way in which we engage with the user community.</li>
+</ol>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p>Finally, once you have done the above, Edit this wiki page <em>TBD</em> containing project volunteers. Add your name
+and indicate that you have completed Level 1. Congratulations! Please send a note to the ooo-dev list so we know
+you are ready for the next Level.</p>
