[dev] How to get started.

[G. Michael Carter]

Lately I've been having an argument with my brother-in-law.  He claims that MS Excel is more powerful than OpenOffice calc making it the best choice for the "average users".    His examples are: "There are two major problems:  I need the TREND worksheet function to be capable of third order polynomial trend lines, which it seems that it cannot based on the OO help.  Also, in the graph there should be a sixth order polynomial trend line added within the options of the chart, as I have done in excel.  I was looking at the chart options in Calc and polynomial trend line isn't listed.  " None of my 14 home users have any clue what he's talking about... but It dawned on me.  If I just fix it and submit it to the OO code tree than he has no leg to stand on... How hard is it to fix bugs?  What do I need to get started? Thanks, Michael -- G.
