I believe LibreOffice is already taking action on binfilter, and it would be useful to see if we can match their approach.

Also, I think there was (again on LibreOffice) a technical discussion on simplifying the dependencies.


I did a lot on simplifying the dependencies with OOo4Kids and OOoLight, but before I need to know what you need to simplify.

About binfilter, there are several issues :

1) the binfilter directory contains duplicated headers. I had a private discussion about that with Jens Heiner Linkenau, aka ause, and I can retrieve everything about the exact reasons why.

2) for compatibility reason, and as good compromise OpenOffice.org should to continue to provide a way to "open" old format files (staroffice 5.x for instance), and to propose to save them in a more recent.

3) build binfilter means there are a lot of warnings, and warnings are error. I worked a lot on remove warnings on binfilter, and I can help on this side, if ever (or students can help for sure).


I got other ideas, about simplifying the build, but I'll keep them for a best moment (too early now)


This was initially by having redundancy, with the idea that a better refactoring would come later.


I must have missed some mails. What is the current plan ?

Eric Bachard
