This proposal was discussed in the ODF TC and accepted to be added to ODF 1.2. Now it was time to finalize the cws. After a review of the code, the cws was built, handed over to Stefan for testing, and eventually integrated into DEV300m39. To sum this up: If you consider the amount and the quality of Martin's contribution, this definitely is a fantastic example of what is possible in an open source project.</p> - </div></content> - <author> - <name>Frank Meies</name> - <uri></uri> - </author> - <source> - <title type="html">jpmcc's shared items in Google Reader</title> - <link rel="self" href="http://www.google.co.uk/reader/public/atom/user/06203502505240591501/state/com.google/broadcast"/> - <id>tag:google.com,2005:reader/user/06203502505240591501/state/com.google/broadcast</id> - <updated>2009-01-23T12:00:28+00:00</updated> - </source> - </entry> - </feed> File [changed]: index.html Url: http://marketing.openoffice.org/source/browse/marketing/www/planet/index.html?r1=1.1432&r2=1.1433 Delta lines: +15 -20 --------------------- --- index.html 2009-01-23 12:00:58+0000 1.1432 +++ index.html 2009-01-23 18:00:37+0000 1.1433 @@ -37,10 +37,24 @@ <a href="rss20.xml"><img src="rss2.gif" alt="Link to RSS 2 feed" /></a> </div> -<p><em>Bloggings on marketing topics by project members - see <a href="#disclaimer">disclaimer</a>.<br />Last updated: January 23, 2009 12:00 PM GMT</em></p> +<p><em>Bloggings on marketing topics by project members - see <a href="#disclaimer">disclaimer</a>.<br />Last updated: January 23, 2009 06:00 PM GMT</em></p> <h2>January 23, 2009</h2> <h3> +<a href="" title="jpmcc's shared items in Google Reader"> +GullFOSS</a> : +<a href="http://eric.bachard.free.fr/news/2009/01/colored-tabs-implementation-in-calc.html"> +Colored tabs implementation in Calc</a> +</h3> +<p> +... or howto help a new contributor joining the <a href="http://www.openoffice.org"> OpenOffice.org Project</a>. <br /><br />Many thanks to <b>Daniel Watson</b>, who wrote this new feature, and I would like to mention the great support from <b>Kohei Yoshida</b>, another OpenOffice.org developer from Novell, who is a Calc expert.<br /><br />From my side, I welcomed Daniel .

Since two days, we work together, (<b>mostly on the #education.openoffice.org IRC channel</b> ), to avoid bothering other devs, with basic questions, like explaining the build process, how to debug, rebuild including symbols, how to improve the code (like respect the coding guidelines .. and son on), and I fixed some builds issues with him ( + I started the code review ). The biggest issue we encountered was a dark visibility issue, but SC_DLLPUBIC macro helped to solve that.<br /><br />To illustrate the great work Daniel did (mostly alone !!), better use screenshots :-)<br /> <br /><b>Please note, I used Mac OS X Aqua version for the screenshots, but it should work the same way on all ports</b><br /><br />The first one describes how we can set the color of the tabs :<br /><br /><a href="http://eric.bachard.free.fr/mac/aquavcl/patches/aqua_January_2009/23rd_january/colored_tabs/setTabColor01.jpg"><img src="http://eric.bachard.free.fr/mac/aquavcl/patches/aqua_January_2009/23rd_january/colored_tabs/setTabColor01_mini.jpg" border="0" align="center" alt="The contextual menu" /></a><br /><br />The next illustrates the result : <br /><br /><br /><a href="http://eric.bachard.free.fr/mac/aquavcl/patches/aqua_January_2009/23rd_january/colored_tabs/setTabColor02.jpg"><img src="http://eric.bachard.free.fr/mac/aquavcl/patches/aqua_January_2009/23rd_january/colored_tabs/setTabColor02_mini.jpg" border="0" align="center" alt="The contextual menu" /></a><br /><br /><br />Yet another example : <br /><br /><a href="http://eric.bachard.free.fr/mac/aquavcl/patches/aqua_January_2009/23rd_january/colored_tabs/setTabColor03.jpg"><img src="http://eric.bachard.free.fr/mac/aquavcl/patches/aqua_January_2009/23rd_january/colored_tabs/setTabColor03_mini.jpg" border="0" align="center" alt="The contextual menu" /></a><br /><br /><b>Now what ?</b><br /><br />Of course, the road is long before integration, but Daniel created a <a href="http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/User:Danielbw"> wiki page</a>, to start with specifications, and <b>if you want to help him, feel free to contact him ! </b><br /><br /><b>At the end, I just would like to say this is fantastic to welcome new developpers like Daniel, the message to the other who hesitate, is : please don't !!</b><br /><br /><br /><br />---------------------------------------<br /><br /> <a href="http://eric.bachard.free.fr/wikibe/index.php?title=Wikibe:Donations_en">Donate to Education Project</a><br /><br />---------------------------------------</description> + <pubDate>Fri, 23 Jan 2009 13:58:39 +0000</pubDate> +</item> +<item> <title>Italo Vignoli: BlackBerry to Support OpenDocument Format</title> <guid>http://www.italovignoli.org/?p=496</guid> <link>http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/ItalosOOoBlog/~3/TKk1evnvYeY/</link> @@ -291,17 +298,6 @@ <p>Â </p></description> <pubDate>Tue, 13 Jan 2009 12:56:27 +0000</pubDate> </item> -<item> - <title>GullFOSS: Yet Another Great Community Contribution</title> - <guid>tag:google.com,2005:reader/item/0bd4dfc3247023f2</guid> - <link>http://blogs.sun.com/GullFOSS/entry/yet_another_great_community_contribution</link> - <description><div> - <p>It is my pleasure to announce the integration of the new <a href="http://eis.services.openoffice.org/EIS2/cws.ShowCWS?Path=DEV300/overline3">overlining feature</a>. I like to thank Martin Whitaker for his outstanding work on this. Let's have a look at what Martin did to get this feature done. First, he submitted a draft patch that implements this feature.</p> - <p> <img border="0" src="http://blogs.sun.com/GullFOSS/resource/sbres_1231798034_0__.png" name="graphics1" /> </p> - <p>Just to give you an impression about the extend of code that had to be written or adjusted, this is the list of modules that were affected by the patch: vcl, svx, cppcanvas, drawinglayer, filter, officecfg, sfx2, svtools, reportdesign, chart2, sc, sd, sw, xmloff. Of course we need a specification for all new features. So Martin set up an <a href="http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/CWS_Policies">I-Team</a> consisting of Stefan Baltzer (QA), Uwe Fischer (Documentation) and Frank Loehmann (UX) and wrote <a href="http://specs.openoffice.org/appwide/formatting/Overlined_Text.odt">this specification</a>. But there was still some way to go: Since this new feature had to be added to <a href="http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/tc_home.php?wg_abbrev=office">ODF</a>, Martin wrote a proposal email to the <a href="http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/comments/index.php?wg_abbrev=office">ODF office-comment mailing list</a>. This proposal was discussed in the ODF TC and accepted to be added to ODF 1.2. Now it was time to finalize the cws. After a review of the code, the cws was built, handed over to Stefan for testing, and eventually integrated into DEV300m39. To sum this up: If you consider the amount and the quality of Martin's contribution, this definitely is a fantastic example of what is possible in an open source project.</p> - </div></description> - <pubDate>Mon, 12 Jan 2009 22:22:21 +0000</pubDate> -</item> </channel> </rss> --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
