Hi Oliver,
since nobody els has answered, I'd like to offer some advice.
If you're serious about learning to program, I suggest you start with
something smaller than OpenOffice.org. OOo consists of millions of
lines of C++ code, which is daunting even for a seasoned developer.

If you want to learn C++, a good way is to google for C++ tutorials on
the web or - if you have the money - to buy a beginner's book.
Microsoft is offering the free Visual C++ Express Edition, which I
consider a good choice for a beginner.

You could also ask your school, if  they have computer courses. Last
but not least there are also a lot of computer programming summer
camps.

I hope this helps a little. If you have more questions, don't hesitate to ask.

Greetings

 Dear Sir/Madam
 I was hoping to be able to develop for OpenOffice, however I’m only 13 and
 my programing is experience is little, I can make a web browser in visual
 basic and that's about it. I was wondering if it would be possible to get my
 ideas through to you or if you could make a program to help me program for
 you. I hope you can help me.
 I look forward to your reply,
 Yours Faithfully

[dev] computer science class participation

2011-06-14 Thread therese . smith

Dear Sir or Madam,
Your excellent projects would also help our students develop
respectable resumes. We have a class in which students are studying
software engineering, and we think they will find good examples of
organization of code, and coding styles, by downloading snapshots of
your development repository(ies) and trying to develop, for example,
add-ons I think students would obtain very useful experiences.
   I'm going to try to explore what's there, and would be very grateful
for any suggestions you might send.

Sincerely,
Thérèse
