For example, do you need to demonstrate a specific quality assurance technique? Or just contribute in some what related to entering defect reports? There is a good intro to how we do QA : http://openoffice.apache.org/orientation/intro-qa.html We're currently finishing up a minor release, Apache OpenOffice 4.0.1, which should be done in the next couple of weeks. There will be an opportunity to do some testing there.

Probably QA would be a good place to start, we have a QA mailing list and an introductory module to learn about the way to contribute to QA and testing: http://openoffice.apache.org/orientation/intro-qa.html > > Thanks > -- Alexandro Colorado Apache OpenOffice Contributor http://www.openoffice.org - To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@openoffice.apache.org
