welcome at OpenOffice Greg. It#s a good start to get familiar with the build system (the beast). Many ideas are flowing around how to improve it and to consolidate the 2 existing approaches (dmake versus gnu make) and if you are interested to help you are welcome. I have introduced Google test to replace cppunit which is license incompatible and many existing tests have to be migrated. This can be also some interesting task to get started and learn more about the code. Just let us know where are interested in. It's also interesting to pick a specific issues and try to debug the root cause. This is always a good approach to learn more about the code and how it works.
