Don & Peter,
I think it is a very good opportunity to promote Apache OpenOffice in
China marketing through Apache Asia Roadshow 2012. And from another side,
the wide influence of OpenOffice can also help to promote Apache.
I'd like to work with Peter together on it. The target can be not only
attract individual volunteers to participate the community, but also
demonstrate the business opportunities and attract local business partners.
While first of all, I'd like to know more details about this event.
Perhaps Jimmy is the right contact?
indeed, let's put together such a session for the Roadshow. A possible
brief outline would be:
- Introduction to and history of OpenOffice
- What's happening around AOO in Beijing respectively China. Engineers
of IBM and of CS2C could share what they are working on.
- How businesses and users can benefit from AOO, ways to join the AOO
community.
How much time we can spend on the parts would depend on how much time we
would get in total.
BTW, I just took a small surgery yesterday, and in the following week I
have to spend most of the daytime in hospital for subsequent treatment. So
my response to the mail threads may be slow. But I will try to catch up on
this topic.
Get well soon!
Best regards,
peter

Hi Don,
thanks for the notice. Unfortunately, the Apache Asia Roadshow 2012 seem
to lack of promoting the event. I only heard about it by coincidence a
couple of days ago.

we plan the main topic around cloud computing: open source really

The Apache OpenOffice community has a significant local representation in
Beijing. I'm cc'ing the community
to alert our Chinese contributors to reach out to you and explore the
possibility of adding an Apache OpenOffice
session to increase its visibility. We just graduated to an Apache TLP, so
we have a solid foundation upon which
to build with a strong global community. The Chinese community is very
important and making a large contribution.
As I seem to be the only one in Beijing who's with OpenOffice from the
beginning, I'd like to offer a talk about the history of OOo, if that is of
interest. As the 13th is a weekday, I just have to find out if I can take a
day off my daily job.
@concom: I cannot find anything about the Apache Asia Roadshow 2012 at
http://wiki.apache.org/**apachecon/ <http://wiki.apache.org/apachecon/>
Do you have a link to the Apache Asia Roadshow 2012 for me? I want to
write an event announcement at the homepage of the Beijing Linux User Group
(http://blug.chinalug.org/). We're reaching quite a few geeks.
Best regards,
Peter
