Thanks Italo for the CC.

Alexander, welcome! We'd love any help that you can provide. The best 
place to start is with some basic triaging. Our backlog of UNCONFIRMED 
bugs is slowly going down but it's still well over 1,000. The issue is 
that no bug will be looked at by a developer until QA confirms and 
prioritizes it. So these 1000 plus are just sitting there until we 
confirm them.

Are you comfortable with IRC? If so please join us at 
http://webchat.freenode.net/, put in #libreoffice-qa for channel, and 
whatever name you want for your nick - something that identifies you 
clearly is best (for instance mine is jmadero). Myself, Joren, 
Colonolqubit (Robinson) are in there quite often and will walk you 
through the steps needed.

Those instructions are also good to review.


Thanks for offering to help :)


Best,
Joel
