In reply to your message:
I´m interested to do some work for that book on KOffice or for the KOffice project generally.
But I´m afraid that I´m not too deep in the technical details.
I´m a typical user. For 1,5 ys. I´m using the LINUX / KDE and -for the future- intend to use KOffice \
instead of StarOffice to have a productive environment without spending that much money. I´m sick of all \
that WINDOOFS stuff that costs a lot of money, functions poor and has no support.

My vision is a LINUX distribution, containing KDE, KOffice and other useful programms together with a \
helpful setup routine that allows the average-intelligent computer user to setup his system to be \
productive from the start. The average user, as I am one, wants to write documents, calculate, draw, \
store data, send and receive mail and fax, use a news-system and perhaps has remote-login.

In this sense a book should be written to guide a user step-by-step to get a fully functioning productive \
office environment. I would like to contribute to that by every thing you want me to do except \
programming code.

So, if you or the author of the KOffice book are looking for a person to be able to look through the \
"user-glasses", I´m your man.

In any other case I apologize for the inconvenience to read the mail.

With greetings from -the arctic rain forest-

F.-A. Schmidt
