Tasks
http://rakesh.gnulinuxcentar.org/?p=107 has all details of all tasks.
Othen mentioned above:
Tasks being worked out are:
1. Fixing warnings - for folks who have a working instance but don't know much about code base right now.
2. Baseline starmath - fixing baseline in starmath module.
Pre-requisites
Know C++
Have a OOo already build on his/her machine. Its is a ~2GB checkout and takes 10-12 hrs to build and much more time resolving dependencies and there are few known tweaks which you will need to do. This is very important. If you don't have a build instance, you wouldn't be able to participate. For any help regarding building catch me.
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/ has all details for building your instance. You latest DEV300 and milestone > 30.
Participants
Rakesh Pandit, Rajesh Sola, Rehman, Srikanth
