Hello Vlad,
thank you for this updated proposal. The present stage of your
project is already impressive, and I'm sure that an Ukrainian
native-lang project can be a great success.
I'll update IssueZilla and Louis will set you up once he's
back from vacations.
+1 for the Ukrainian native-lang project!
Best Regards,
Charles-H. Schulz.
The purpose
- Popularization of OpenOffice.org among
Ukrainian-speaking users.
- Informing Ukrainian users about aspects of use
OpenOffice.org
- Creating community of Ukrainian developers and users of
OpenOffice.org
Why?
Ukrainian users are largely not informed of features and
opportunities
OpenOffice.org can bring to them, about conditions of its
distribution
and use
licensing.
For example, one Ukrainian company sells OpenOffice.org
under the
trademark
"OpenOffice" they've successfully registered to themselves
at the price
of 50
euro for one copy, not giving source codes and obscuring the
copyright
notice.
Thus, representatives of this company try to forbid the
distribution of
OpenOffice.org on Ukraine employing questionable methods
(like TM fraud).
At present Ukrainian OOo developer community hardly exists
while proper
localization project is long-awaited by those who use
existing translations
(there are two and a half flavours of Ukrainian ones, two
Russian ones
and at
least one English one) along with Ukrainian dictionaries;
there's also
OpenOffice.org.ua. Mass media also questions whether there
will be a proper
rival to the Ukrainian translation of Microsoft Office which
was
approved for
use in government and education.
I wish to declare especially that the given project is
opened for all
who wishes to participate in localization OpenOffice.org 2
for Ukraine
Planned steps
1. Open Ukrainian page (ua.openoffice.org)
2. Create developers' and subsequently users' maillists to
help with
concentration of independent developer and group efforts
geared at
creation of
Ukrainian OpenOffice.org.
3. Merging of existing glossary projects with the
difference in dialects
taken into account
4. Help promote OpenOffice.org via articles in Ukrainian
web and mass
media
It is possible to speak about success of the project, taking
into account
- good contacts among the community in which I have honour
to participate
- the consent about every possible help from the project
ru.openoffice.org
(approved by Anatoly Yakushin (yakushinATopenoffice.org) and
Rail Aliev
(railATiqchoice.com))
