Students, OpenOffice.org and Java
Today, I was glad to see
Cedric Bosdonnat (Novell) join the IRC channel
#education.openoffice.org (server is irc.freenode.net). We often have questions from students about Java, but we had not the skills to answer.
Cedric will help a lot with that.
Of course, there are
#dev.openoffice.org and
#go-oo IRC channels (and some other), but the idea is to use a dedicated channel, to avoid boring developers with simple and often-the-same questions.
Something ideal could be to have dedicated hours where students could find the developers they need. e.g. defining a list, or sort of agenda on the wiki. Shouldn't be too difficult, but we need volunteers ...
...btw, Python specialists are accepted and welcome too ;-)See you :-)Libellés : Education, effort, High Tech, java, OpenOffice, Teaching OpenSource
