Keeping Playlist Sequence.
Hello, I have a new computer with windows 8.1. I do not have Microsoft Works? I need to be able to copy and drag my Music Play list out of my iTunes in the same song sequence into a New Folder on my desktop. As it is now, after I have copied my Play LIst to my new folder the Play List is NOT in the same Sequence as it was in my iTunes. If Open Office does have a sequence procedure can you give me the STEPS HOW TO USE IT. Thank you for any help in this matter. Gerald Williams.

Krista Watkins - Introduction
Hello Everyone, My name is Krista Watkins and I am looking forward to beginning my volunteer work here with OpenOffice. Now, for a little background on myself. I am a second year student at Regis University working on a bachelors degree in Computer Science. Most of my work so far has involved using C++ but I also have basic knowledge of Java and SQL. Unfortunately, though, I have not had the opportunity as of yet to use my schooling in any real world setting. I am hoping that volunteering with this group will allow me to gain some much needed experience both in coding and also in the other aspects that go into creating and maintaining programs. To do this, I am willing to work with bug reports, coding, clearing tickets, and pretty much where ever else help is needed. I am hoping to be able to contribute about 2-3 hours a week at this point, with a hope to contribute more in the future. I have begun working on Modules 1 and 2 and I look forward to working with everyone. Kind Regards, Krista Watkins
RE: [DISCUSS] Inappropriate Compliance Costs
I think the enumeration provided by Rob below is more grounded and conditional than the web page itself. For me, the page itself is simply propaganda, as appealing as it is for those with an ideological commitment to open-source development. Whatever the facts it is based on, however true they are, it lacks reality and context and, by omission, exaggerates how much this impacts anyone. For example, it suggests, absent context, that Linux is a bad proposition because of the GPL. Likewise GNU Tools and the LAMP stack (not to mention issues for on-line services with some GPL3 variants). That leaves what? FreeBSD, OpenBSD, and other software based on permissive licenses. I don't think there are many here who are satisfied with that conclusion and those concerns, while happily running Debian/Ubuntu and other distributions as well as OpenSolaris, etc. I can certainly understand why folks like Bradley Kuhn and those who have learned of his objections are dismayed over this. Note that Kuhn presents the Compliance Costs openoffice.org page as being from the Apache web site and he uses it to suggest that the ASF has become copy-left hostile. Identification of the page with the ASF is a fact, too, if one looks at who hosts the site and owns the domain name. It fits his agenda to point that out (and not point out that node.js is under a permissive license). One can also see, then, how this situation elevated onto the legal-discuss list. In any case, my attention is going to be on Apache OpenOffice as an affirmative offering of value, not contrast with suggested negatives. AOO appeals to those who consider adoption of AOO in support of their personal and office productivity needs. They and their organizations are supported by demonstrating how AOO can be relied upon as dependable and useful in their actual circumstances. I think that is the most important way to establish that an open-source project has delivered something tangible and practical. - Dennis -Original Message- From: Rob Weir [mailto:r...@robweir.com] Sent: Friday, January 30, 2015 12:58 To: dev@openoffice.apache.org; orc...@apache.org Subject: Re: [DISCUSS] Inappropriate Compliance Costs On Fri, Jan 30, 2015 at 3:36 PM, Dennis E.

There is a risk, when we are essentially preaching to the choir, that we sink into some sort of fundamentalist hyperbole as well. It is satisfying, it is credible to us, and it can be a mistake. Facts are more nuanced than portrayed. It is also unnecessary for the voice of the project to be taken there. There are many places where such matters can be discussed without embroiling the project. The page boils down to saying the following: 1) Companies that use commercially licensed software are exposed to compliance risk that can be mitigated with time and expense. 2) Companies that use copyleft software are also exposed to compliance risk that can be mitigated with time and expense. 3) There is a class of open source licenses that represent a middle path and avoid much of this risk. The Apache License is one example. 4) Apache OpenOffice uses the Apache License, so if you are concerned with the cost of license compliance you might want to look further into using OpenOffice. I'd argue that this is a factual, relevant and appropriate thing for us to say. Regards, -Rob A company is certainly not going to learn about the risks of running pirated software here first. I don't want to get into fine points of how the BSA operates. Anyone can research the rewards for whistle-blowers on settlement without lawsuits at https://reporting.bsa.org/r/report/usa/rewardsconditions.aspx. My main point is that an AOO stance is insignificant and not informative to someone for whom license management is a serious concern. Also, the BSA does not pursue individuals using software separate from and outside of their employment. It is more important, to me, that there be clarity about what the AOO licensing conditions are and how easy they are to satisfy at essentially no cost. Comparative cost-benefit is much larger than that single factor. AOO site and resources could be more helpful in determining how to migrate successfully, though. That's something where we have an opportunity to act as a contribution to the public interest. The business about copy-left versus permissive licenses is evidently what attracted the attention of the legal-discuss list here at the ASF. I had not known what the actual discussion was at http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/www-legal-discuss/201501.mbox/browser. The conclusion later in that thread led to the footnote on the current version of the page at http://www.openoffice.org/why/why_compliance.html. (Another list I need to re-subscribe to.) A still

RE: Keeping Playlist Sequence.
Hello Gerald, From your description, below, it does not appear that the situation you describe has much to do with Apache OpenOffice (or Microsoft Office). Perhaps some basic details of what you have done will help us to see better how OpenOffice can be useful. When you say you have copied your Music Play list, what exactly is it that you have copied. Is it the files for the tunes themselves, or is it some files of data that are about each iTune on a Music Play list? Or something else? What are you using to look at what you have copied? Are you looking at how the items appear in the Windows view of what is in the folder? There are ways to control what order is used using the Windows File Explorer. Are you using that? When you double-click on items in the folder, does the tune play? I don't use iTunes, so I don't know details of how it provides playlists and control over them. If it provides a sequence that works for you, what is it you want the copied Music Play list for? If you can provide a specific scenario of how the iTunes Music Play list is ordered (or do you just move songs around?), that would be helpful. Also, do you still want to use iTunes to play the tunes or does it work for you to play the music directly in Windows? (This will depend on the format of the tunes as they are stored on your computer.) I am recommending that you continue this discussion on the users list where more people may be familiar with what you are attempting. - Dennis PS: You have reached a public mailing list on which volunteers contribute to questions from other users like themselves.

RE: Krista Watkins - Introduction
Hello Krista, Yes, welcome and thank you for introducing yourself. The combination of C++, Java, and SQL can come in handy as you get deeper into Apache OpenOffice. We do have some Java dependencies and the OpenOffice Base application uses JDBC and Java-based database services. There are some other features that bridge to Java implementations, and folks can develop extensions using Java. A lot of this is tied into the UNO model for objects (in C++) that you will encounter. That's nothing to pay attention to now. It is something may catch your eye as you dig deeper into Apache OpenOffice. Enjoy your studies and the familiarization exercises here. - Dennis -Original Message- From: Kay Schenk [mailto:kay.sch...@gmail.com] Sent: Saturday, January 31, 2015 15:16 To: dev@openoffice.apache.org; kwatkin...@gmail.com Subject: Re: Krista Watkins - Introduction On 01/31/2015 08:27 AM, Krista Watkins wrote: Hello Everyone, My name is Krista Watkins and I am looking forward to beginning my volunteer work here with OpenOffice.
