Yes! Thank you.
It looks like membership is very restrictive.
I am not a coder/developer, and my contributions have been very limited,
mostly on the mailing lists, bringing input on different issues at
different times.

However, I have told about LibreOffice to dozen of people in Montreal
whenever I get a chance. Most of this was done when I was promoting the
LOCon 2013 in Montreal, but also as recently as yesterday, I talked for 30
minutes with a young women who was on AOO and she never heard of LO.

About a month ago I converted one of my facebook friends from AOO to LO,
and he told me about a bug, which I plan to submit a bug report very soon.

Are these valid contributions?
