It's worth bearing in mind that for a documentation project for a software such as OpenOffice or LibreOffice, the technical writing is going to be accompanied by a lot of investigative testing of the programs and content development work. You can't just write, sometimes you have to actually develop content to be able to write around it. At the LibreOffice project, we need people to work on a guide for the Base database interface. If you're interested in working on this, please sign-up to the LibreOffice Documentation team mailing list and make contact there: http://www.libreoffice.org/get-involved/documenters/ All the best, :-) -- David Nelson -- ----------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe send email to dev-unsubscr...@documentation.openoffice.org For additional commands send email to sy...@documentation.openoffice.org with Subject: help
