This is a public list that can be viewed from the internet so is not a good
idea to post private information unless you understand the risks.

But private information can be safely stored by the moderators. Technology
has ways of doing this

We do have a wiki page where volunteers can record their information:

http://forum.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?f=107p=254779

Anyone can create a wiki account and add their own information.

Note that this is a global volunteer list, so you might search for
marketing to find the marketing volunteers.  If we really wanted a
separate page with only the marketing volunteers we could do that as
well.

Regards,

-Rob

I tried to sign in to
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OOOUSERS/Directory+of+Volunteers.
But the funny looking image with text made fun out of me. I think the web
page does not like me and stopped vehemently entering your site. I will try
once again to morrow.

 Oh, I need another cup of coffee  g

 Wrong link.  Sorry. I meant to paste this one:

 https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OOOUSERS/Directory+of+Volunteers

 You should then see a sign up link in the upper right.
