Starting Introduction to Contributing to Apache OpenOffice Module

Hello,

I started using Apache OpenOffice earlier this year.
I haven't had MS Office on my computer since my license expired a couple of
years ago.  However, I don't ever remember MS Office working as well as
OpenOffice does.

I have several years of experience writing code in Java and C++, so I
decided it was time to start giving back to this project.

Hello and welcome to Apache OpenOffice!

We usually suggest going through our Orientation modules as an
introduction to how things work:

http://openoffice.apache.org/orientation/index.html

Given your background, you'll probably find the Development module
useful. Most of Apache OpenOffice is written in C++.

We are here to make your volunteer experience successful, so please use
this list for any questions you may have.
