John,
I would like to request for the UDK project as what Ingrid
requested for
the Chart. The UDK already is available as a 'standalone' component,
namely as the URE (Uno Runtime Environment).
The point I would like to repeat because I think that it was overread by
some on this thread is that the "UDK already is available as a
'standalone' component'".
We have a third one, the SDK ;-) Ok the SDK depends on an installed
Office but it is a separate product as well.
What this basically means it that what we do have here is a "second
product" besides OpenOffice.org itself that is offered here and IMHO it
is a very valid request to make this second product visible on the MAIN
page. If we´d be a company "selling" two products we´d be stupid to not
show both of them on our companys main page; same thing should apply here.
I haven't got a URE icon on my "Start" menu ... or to put it another
What is the "Start" menu? ;-)
The user audiance for this "second product" and the user audiance for
the "main product" - OpenOffice.org itself do only overlap a little bit
and it´s not "simple application end users only" it´s developers of
extensions for OpenOffice.org and developers developing their own
probably not for extensions, that would be primary the SDK. But the URE
is necessary for using the UNO technology in own new projects or
applications.
Juergen
software totally in no relationship with OpenOffice.org which might make
use of this "second product" and than there is also a subset of users
which do create complicated documents with our "main product" which are
enhanced by programming in various available programming languages which
can make use of this "second product". This "second product" consist
mainly of a technolgy (UNO) used inside the main product together with
stuff like documentation and programming libs etc. If we would be
talking about a house building company we would basically be talking
about the bricks we use here. Now well we would like others to provide
things for our houses other than those that we do currently offer
ourselfs and to make those other things fit with the rest of the houses
we offer they would be using our bricks. On the other hand our bricks
are very good bricks and other things than houses (OpenOffice.org and
OpenOffice.org extensions) can be build with it, that´s why we want to
sell them seperatly [ well of course we are not selling anything, we
give that away for free as well as anything else ;-) ]
We want others to develop and offer extensions for OpenOffice.org and we
do also want to allow that technology to spread into other software.
Basically what´s being asked here for is to get those bricks which are
our "second product" on the main-page. Can we do that please?
