Hi all,

I thank our Chairman to take the time to explain his vision of the 
freeze, which I share (at least, the vast majority of it, TBH). As such:

Re: [board-discuss] [VOTE] LibreOffice Online freeze-related topics

2021-01-16 Thread Lothar K. Becker

  
  
Hi,

let me give some explanation before the individual votes in this
cast: I cannot vote this in a whole block because out of my
understanding of "frozen" so far, there have to be different answers
for the various items in my opinion.

***tl;dr

"Frozen" means to me: We are temporarily not able to deliver own
source/binaries with an TDF branded LOOL solution, because we are
not able to maintain the source with security patches in our own
code repository and further more we cannot guarantee if or when a
source contribution in our code base will be delivered in a
binary/package, because we cannot build and deploy it because of the
luck of security patches coding know how. 

So for the moment contributors with every contribution to LOOL (code
as well as non code) which is accepted in our own code base could
become frustrated about bringing in something but getting it not (or
not knowing when) into a binary version for use as a TDF branded
LOOL. So for the time being in which we are not able to do that, we
could hint to the source base of one of our valuable ecosystem
partner and we should freeze for new contributions but maintain a
playground (in which tool soever), where the source could be seen,
where out of it for new future code contributors can be learned but
the source be understood. From the moment on when we are able to
maintain the source again under TDF delivery process ability and
responsibility the freeze should be eased.  

With that it is clear, that I absolutely support the hint from
Nicolas, that I am also hoping (but not just hoping) to have an TDF
branded LOOL in the near future again. We should have that to
full-fill the TDF own duties as well as to have a market demanded
"independent" solution, certainly there could be
differences/restrictions for the TDF one to the ecosystem partners
one to reflect that professional deployments should use a version
under professional supported conditions (which is far more than
security patches). 

But this will not happen by its own. In the meantime we should talk
with the ecosystem partner who have moved for coming back as well as
with potential new code contributors (not just for LOOL but with
that focus, because we also need new code contributing
volunteers/ecosystem partners for the core). And indeed, therefore
the tendered development mentor is very important, because he/she
will help newbies to become or grow in such a role and help also the
ecosystem partners which are already here with the work (additional
investments from others). But also for that role of a development
mentor of TDF there should be a TDF controlled source base in the
status we have frozen with a official temporarily "read only" mode.

***end of tl;dr***

Long read with short answers, that is why I vote as follows:

+1 from my side.

I still hope we'll see "online" back at TDF in the future.
