Hi there, this year's OpenOffice conference took place in Beijing/Peking at the beginning of November (at the same time the US Apache conference took place).
Among the many talks there was one about adding a scripting language to OpenOffice org (a.k.a. "OOo") using BSF by me, for which the slides are available online already. [OOo's scripting framework itself is not implemented in C++ but in Java, therefore BSF fits very nicely into it.] All the presentations were videotaped and the tapes are supposed to be made available at the end of November. Cf. <http://marketing.openoffice.org/ooocon2008/>, resp. <http://marketing.openoffice.org/ooocon2008/programme/thursday.html> Thursday presenatations, resp. <http://marketing.openoffice.org/ooocon2008/programme/thursday_1501.pdf> the presentation introducing BSF. Should you contemplate to add your favorite scripting language to OOo using BSF, you should also look into what you could/should do to ease programming/scripting OOo. The presentation <http://marketing.openoffice.org/ooocon2008/programme/thursday_1501.pdf> stresses the areas in the OOo UNO ("Universal Network Objects", a coarsley CORBA-like) component architecture for which one should/could create specific support for a scripting language. Should you have any questions in this context, just come forward and ask them. As you can see, ASF's BSF being a "matured" technology has many interesting applications...
