How can I contribute?
There are several ways in which you can contribute to the NeoOffice/J project.
NeoOffice/J
End User
- Donate money - Currently (March 2005), there are only TWO developers programming NeoOffice/J. Both are employed full-time and contribute their free time. To help pay for the out-of-pocket costs associated with developing and supporting NeoOffice/J (bandwidth!) so they can focus on improving NeoOffice/J, you are invited to make a donation at http://www.planamesa.com/neojava/donate.php.
- - If you notice a bug, report it so the developers can fix it!
- Write documentation - Help update and maintain this wiki so new users will always have up-to-date information.
- - If you like NeoOffice/J, spread the word.
- There have also been some discussions on starting a NeoOffice/J user group to support NeoOffice/J and a foundation to further the development of NeoOffice/J and open-source software on the Mac generally. If you have ideas or experience regarding either of these topics, check out respective forum threads on Trinity: User group Foundation
- See this list of things to do for more ideas.
Software Developer
- This is an open-source project, so if you want to help, contact Patrick Luby or Ed Peterlin at the Trinity forums. Explain your area of expertise and we can go from there.
- Ed has written up a number of specifications for small projects that might be good starting points for a beginning NeoOffice/J developer.
- The NeoOffice/J source can be browsed online; you can also check out the
NeoLight
NeoLight (NeoOffice Spotlight Importer) is in early development. It works and is included in NeoOffice/J, but further testing (especially of the support for the forthcoming OpenDocument format) is welcome.
Read the NeoLight documentation or browse the source.
NeoOffice/C
The NeoOffice/C project is no longer under active development so that all efforts can be focused on the continued improvement of NeoOffice/J.
