Thanks! Don't worry about lack of experience, we are here to help. 
Vietnamese is about 95% complete and with your help it will be feasible 
to complete the translation in December and release OpenOffice 3.4.1 in 
Vietnamese in January.

The next steps you should take are:

1) Please subscribe to the localization mailing list or you will miss 
important messages. To subscribe, just send an empty e-mail to 
l10n-subscribe@openoffice.apache.org and respond to the confirmation 
request you will receive. If traffic is too high, remember that you can 
also subscribe to a "daily digest" (1 message per day); ask us in case.

2) Read this page: http://openoffice.apache.org/translate.html ; it 
describes the translation process.

3) Wait for the "PO files" for Vietnamese. Juergen, our release manager, 
will likely send them to you early next week. Please write back if you 
haven't received them by then.

Regards,
   Andrea.

po files Vietnamese can be found under
http://people.apache.org/~jsc/translation/aoo341_vi_po-files.tar.bz2

- helpcontent2 is contained as well but can be ignored for now, it
contains the help files
- basic/source/app.po can be ignored as well, it contains the not longer
used testtool strings, already removed for AOO 4.0
