Hi,

James McKenzie a écrit :

The idea of Open Source is that you add your contributions to an
existing project, or you start one of your own.

Please, stop to consider "me" only. I'm just one people in the project.
Porting project, inside OpenOffice.org project is a community project.

I just try to organize things, and create a dynamic for Mac OS X port.


  Others
add/delete/modify/fix as needed and contribute back to the entire
project.  You HAVE to include your sources with your releases

Yes, when we will be able to provide a release, we will commit our code. That's not the case currently : bridges is not completed.


> In any case, I see this
argument as 'picking at straws' and is a minor point in getting

Sorry, I do not understand this sentence


I don't know. You have a project

You're wrong : here is question of a community project. Not "mine"

That's the reason why we had a meeting : I do not want to decide alone, and am very happy to delegate.

I prefer from far learn, write and test code (debug ...).


  Keeping your project secret is not in the spirit of Open
Source and makes the rest of us wonder if it even exists.

No, nothing is secret. Florian and me want to work quietly. Our code is draft, and must be verified. Not sure it's even a good solution.

Last, create a cws is not a good idea : resync is a nightmare, and it's better to manually adapt just before to integrate


  The question
in my mind is:  Does sources exist for your project, where are they and
what type of license are they going to be released under.

Everything Florian and me will provide will be covered by LGPL license, as usual.


It appears that you want much glory and if you
succeed, this may/may not happen.

This sentence is very aggressive, and not really justified.
Please stop  with personnal attacks.


  However, pointing out the failures of
others does not do much to help your effort and may actually have a
counterproductive effect.

No, it's not in my intention to point "failures of others".

Again, please discuss constructively, about technical solutions for positive contribution.



Regards,
eric bachard
