Hi,
> Mr. Yabuki setup cvs repo for MacOSX porting.
I appreciate that you put your patches into this repository. On the other
hand, MacOS X porting already has its CVS. It is the same repository as the
complete OpenOffice.org project is using.
Maho and myself have build several versions of OOo 1.9, and I would
expect by now that these patches have worked back into the master
workspace, most notably IZ 42998, which has been open for quite some
time now.
What we need is people who will actually work on integrating them, not
people who will collect them in their own private space.
I think that Maho is trying to make public what he is doing to show what
he did to build OOo 1.9 milestones successfully. Instead of placing a
bunch of files in an obscure location, he is using CVS to make his work
available and this is easier than downloading the same files over and
over again.
As a point of discussing I am using his work to verify that his builds
do work with current versions of MacOSX. I do have a second system
available, but it is otherwise occupied. However, if it does become
available in the future, I will definately work on building on more than
one system as part of verification that a certain patch that works on
MacOSX does not break builds on a different operating system.
I do have one comment. That is that Maho should update the issues with
results from his builds. I think that he is putting his information on
good-day.net so that a second, third or maybe fourth person can do
confirmation builds, to update issues and that way they can be moved
back into the MWS quickly. I know that Eric B. has opened several child
work spaces, and those need to be worked back into the MWS, but only
after confirmational builds and testing that demonstrates that the
patches do not break builds on other operating systems.
If we all shared information like Maho, we may move quickly towards a
Release Candidate for OOo 1.9 for the Mac.
