imho this is what is worked here :)
Yes, Joerg has been fantastic.
If they can maintain the stability of the current beta releases, I think that would work well. I know a couple of people who are already using the beta release as their standard release. I don't because I still find it too unstable. But it's at the point where people who are inpatient can start using it (at their own risk).
and help with feedback and IZ confirmation.
Good thinking.
I never managed to figure out the package manager. That was a big barrier for me. That's why I decided that writing macros wasn't worth
my time because none but the most committed members would be able to
install them. The other barrier I hit was documentation.
Now that you can read French, may be you'll find what you search for here :)
It also looks like the system is easier now (with the new package manager).
Yes I've tried it with m93, it's really easy and transparent for users. PKGCHK was something I always would like to see more known and promoted.
My life is a little crazy right now. But it's certainly
something I'll look into in the future.
Sorry, I forgot to add the link once connected : http://fr.openoffice.org/Documentation/Outils/Addons1_1fr.sxw http://fr.openoffice.org/Documentation/How-to/Basic/XrayTool40_fr.sxw
The issue with site multiplication is the wasting of energy for those who are not speaking English. They need to retrieve informations on OOoMacros, OOoExtras, Code Snippet, Scripting, OOoForums, Darwinwar, Andrew site, etc. Most of the time, all those ressources are simply anusable. This apply to other sites that are created without any care of the NLC which is not a translation machine and may have difficulty with IT depending on the part of the world they are based.
I agree that website proliferation is a problem. Although it's good to use an external website if you need something that can't be done on SourceCast, we should still try to minimize the proliferation of URLs.
yes,
For example, I think it would be good if (1) code snipets (2) macro documentation and (3) the add-ons themselves were all in one place. I see a lot of value in having those outside SourceCast. For example, you could use Wikis, and you can make it easier for people to upload their add-ins. But I think it should be on one URL, not three.
Having all in one place was the first idea. Having it on SourceCast, or more exactly on OOo official site has one effect which is pretty important : it shows community activity and participation.
The documentation part on FR site has been very attractive for new contributors. The quality (responsivness and profesionality) of our lists is now recognized and some companies and administrations are miroring them for their employees, leading to new contributors and members, to more feedback and interactivity.
Puzzling the ressources is also puzzling our visibility imho and as already said a waste of energy for users.
Wiki (we have a wiki in FR community and I'll put one in place for 2.0 features feedback when it will be RC time) could be used for day to day work provided at the end it will join the master OOo site.
