How to get the author role

To receive the author role, simply write to the list and ask (see How to join the list). We will give you the author role with all speed. Please give us your username, we will need that.

What does the author role mean?

It means that you can add files inside the Authors workspace.

Why do you do it this way?

The documents inside the Authors workspace require more communication and coordination. We require an email to the list so that we get an opportunity to "meet" the new contributor.

OpenOffice.org v2.0

Posted by gdhorne at 2005-08-04 07:03 PM

Hello, I have been using OpenOffice.org since the first public release. I thought it was about time I started giving back to such a great project and when I came across this site I decided to take the plunge.

Hi All,

Being technical writer for the past three years I never had an opportunity to work on open-source documentation. Though new to OOo I am eager to learn and extend my help in any of the documentation project.
Please free to drop a line and I would be happy to help you.

Best Regards,
Shampa
