Isn't the "Help Wanted" page already a good list? https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OOOUSERS/Help+Wanted It is not in the form of a roadmap, but it already contains a lot of content, well structured. > > What do you think? A "Contributing" paragraph in README.md with a link to the above page could already be a step forward. Then, we could focus on making that page better, more up to date, in tabular form etc. ...and just because we are discussing README.md I would appreciate if someone added it to the AOO41X and AOO42X branches! They are worth at least a minimal description...
