Hi, Testers!
In order to spend the time until OOo 2.4 RC1 is available (For sure NOT
before Monday, I was told by Release Enginnereing), I would like to
invite you to have a look at a feature preview for OOo 3.0.
This CWS is not finalized because it must be resynced to changes from
other CWSes. However, time runs short until UI freeze for 3.0 so we must
"get agile" for this.
The issue:
https://so-web.germany.sun.com/iBIS/servlet/edit.ControlPanel?tid=i1598
(Yes, a 4-digit one! :-)
The specification (NOT final yet):
http://www.openoffice.org/nonav/issues/showattachment.cgi/51423/MultiplePageView-Spec_DRAFT_Jan_14_2008.odt
Install sets for Windows and Linux (rpm):
http://ooo.services.openoffice.org/pub/OpenOffice.org/cws/upload/fme/
(...use the latest ones, of course...)
The iTeams Wiki page:
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Writer/ToDo/Layout/Multi_Page_Layout#Implementation:_Progress.2FToDo
ToDos:
- Install
- Read the specification
- Toy with the office (Yes, toy! At this point, there is no test case
description yet)
- Tell about your findings (Either by mail to me or as a reply here).
I will gather the feedback, discuss with the iTeam and "translate" it
into issues.
I am interested in severe problems:
Loops, crashes, "P1 and P2" issues, hinderances in daily work. Severe
regressions in UI. You-name it (until I'll stop it, if needed :-)
Note that that CWS will have THE SAME bugs as the master SRCm242.
We shall NOT discuss the spec or exchange ideas "how to make this
DIFFERENT and even better from scratch". Note that the I-team DID have a
close look at other applications with this feature and that we decided
to implement it the way we have it specified so far.
Further questions?
Go ahead!
Regards,
Stefan Baltzer
