We are looking for volunteers to do the following tasks. But please do not feel limited to these items. For inspiration on other ideas we recommend reading "14 Ways to Contribute to Open Source without Being a Programming Genius or a Rock Star"."

If you are interested in working on any of these items, please send a note to the dev@openoffice.apache.org mailing list and we can give you hints on how to accomplish the task.

  1. Document or find tools. Specifically, external diff and merge tools for Subversion that can process ODF documents.
  2. Fix bugs, create and update OpenOffice. Skills needed: an Apache OpenOffice Bugzilla account, subversion (svn) git or github knowledge, C++ (Apache OpenOffice is mainly written in C++, though there is some code in Java and Python). See the Developer FAQ to get started.
  3. Build ApacheOffice from source. We can use feedback on the build process. Skills needed include familiarity with C++, and your system's batch or shell processing capabilities.  See the Source Control webpage for more information on obtaining and building Apache OpenOffice.
