Introduction & question about contributing source code?
Hello there, I started to subscribe these list since May. I began by asking question on API list, volunteer translation on l10n and doc, than finally, I start to investigate annoying issues I encountered. I come from Taiwan and am interested about issues specific to traditional Chinese. I tried to submit issues I've found ( https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=125400 ), also attached the patch I've made, not knowing if I've did it right. I think you are busy releasing new version these days. Now that I know how to build and debug now, I may be able to help more. However it seems that wiki page for contributor is outdated: https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Contributing_Patches ( it suggest to use hg to make patch, and domain developer list marked outdated, URL to IRT & IIT links are invalid now. What is the correct procedure to propose a patch for defect ( or enhancement) ? Please advice. Sincerely. -- Mark Hung
