RE: I would like to contibute to open office
Several months ago I contacted Openoffice Apache Org; and downloaded what you suggested. Honestly I wasn’t able to understand your software and ended up uninstalling it. I was hoping to find a simple and logic programming environment like in Microsoft Visual c/c++, Microsoft Visual Basic or Borland, etc. All were simple to use because I only had to open the main program to do all I ever needed, with an ease to understand and use compiler, and simple to access all I ever needed to create any kind of program/application.
I understand that today there are many more languages than during those old days and that were created to perform and simplify the actual variety of Developments and its related applications.
I downloaded MS Visual Studio 2017 hoping to learn all I stopped to learn since the year 2005, imagine my actual ignorance.
I honestly appreciate your continuous messages of motivation. I feel strongly that some day I shall return and join the Apache Organization, because it will be an honor to participate with a very different and special kind of organization.
Best Regards,
Juan B. Rodriguez, Electrical Engineer

Welcome to OpenOffice.
You are contributing by taking part in the OpenOffice Project. There is
no formal boarder.
We give you access as you go along. So do you have tried to do already
something?
Try to solve some bug (https://bz.apache.org/ooo/), try to build
OpenOffice from our guide:
https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/Building_Guide_AOO
https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/Building_Guide_AOO/Step_by_step
If you see in the wiki something you want to change or write some code
documentation ask for an account on dev mailing list.
If you have any questions especially when you get stuck ask on dev
mailing list.
I hope this gives some orientation.
All the best
Peter

I know building AOO is difficult. The first time a tried I gave up. The
second time, I asked for help each time I got stuck, and succeeded in
building it.
The core problem is a combination of history, and the number of
different supported platforms.
