Hello my friend, welcome! :) I'm not a developer, but I have some expertise in wikis (Mediawiki, Moinmoin, Trac), translations (I am a former translator for BrOffice Magazine and I helped to create contents for pt-br LibreOffice website and wiki), localization (pootle), websites, blogs, and documentation (many chapters of LibreOffice pt-br documentation have my contribution), etc. Paulo is one of the best I know how to work with the Wiki. It also speaks / reads English very well. I'm sure he will make great contributions. Best, Albino Paulo, hello! It's good to see you here! Louis

As we spoke (in pt-br), is easy to take the content from a place and put in other, organizing it while does this work. But now, the challenge is greater. I already did the support for translation, but need to continue the work. What you think? Best, Claudio

I already did the support for translation, but need to continue the work. What you think? Hi. Just like I've posted in another thread, I think it's needed to decide what wiki to work on. Should we build a new structure for AOO in Cwiki, or should we maintain Mediawiki and recycle the information in it? I like to think a little far ahead: What do people expect to find in the wiki? Based on this question, I would choose Mediawiki as the main platform because of their semantic capabilities. I just don't know if Cwiki has those capabilities, also. Maybe someone more familiar with that tool could help me.

Introducing myself
I've been away for the past 2 weeks, so I've missed all the happenings. I'm now catching up on the list archives and hope to be confirmed soon as a committer. Meanwhile, I thought I would introduce myself, because I've seen several topics where I think I can contribute information and ideas. I am Jean Hollis Weber, currently Co-Lead of OpenOffice.org Documentation. My background is 30 years of technical writing, editing and publishing, mostly on computer software related projects. My area of expertise is user-oriented information, including user guides, how-tos, and online help. (I have written an award-winning book titled Is the Help Helpful? as well as other books under my own name and quite a lot of the material in the official OOo user guides.) I also have some project management (documentation team leadership) experience related to coordinating the production of multi-authored documents such as user guides. Although there may be no formal team leads here, I think it's often useful for people to take on a leadership or coordinating role once work items have been defined. I've found that many publishing projects stall without someone in that role. I don't actually want to spend a lot of time leading (I'd prefer to be writing new material), so please don't read that as me looking to take charge of documentation! --Jean
