Apache OpenOffice Voulenteering

[Peter Reddish <pe...@hotmail.co.uk>]

Dear Open Office,

 

I would be quite interested to help in any way I can in regards to getting
your user guides ready.

I consider myself to be an all rounded individual with many skills, apart
from drawing or graphical design.

Editing, proof-reading and technical verification would be the ones that I
feel that I am best at.

If you would like me to help in anyway please contact me.

 

Regards 

Peter Reddish

Hi Peter, I suggest to read the styles guide as well as the past OOAuthors
manual which also define some of the conventions of the manuals. This will
help guide our efforts on the new user manual for version 3.4.1-4.0.
