I have made a decision

[Keith N. McKenna]

Pastor Randy;

I just wanted to let you know that I have made a decision on staying
with the church. After much prayer and discussions with people I trust
and respect I will be staying with both the Episcopal Church and with
Trinity. Though there are trends in both that are disconcerting, I feel
that I can be a more effective agent for change from within. My heart is
here and I receive my spiritual growth and strength through the Liturgy
and through my service to the church.

I do have to cut back some though as I was burning out. I will continue
to serve as Don's back-up as Verger and I have asked Suzanne to put me
back on the schedule in October as a LEM, and would like to continue as
an LEV. I am also going to become more active as an Acolyte. I seem to
feel the call most strongly to serve at the Altar and that is where I
need to put my priorities.

I hope you and Karin are enjoying your time on vacation.

Regards
Keith

Hello and welcome to Apache OpenOffice!

We usually suggest going through our Orientation modules as an
introduction to how things work:

http://openoffice.apache.org/orientation/index.html

Given your background, you'll probably find the Development module
useful. Most of Apache OpenOffice is written in C++.

We are here to make your volunteer experience successful, so please use
this list for any questions you may have.

Starting Introduction to Contributing to Apache OpenOffice Module

[OO Bugs]

Hello,

I started using Apache OpenOffice earlier this year.
I haven't had MS Office on my computer since my license expired a couple of
years ago.  However, I don't ever remember MS Office working as well as
OpenOffice does.

I have several years of experience writing code in Java and C++, so I
decided it was time to start giving back to this project.

Re: ODF Plugfest: participation and leaflets

[Stuart J Mackintosh]

Dennis,

Thank you for supporting this initiative and providing the response from 
the AOO community. I will include the AOO entry in the Application 
Choices table as proposed.


Should AOO choose to feature as a sponsor for 100GBP per language 
(English & Dutch), you will need to let Basil know by 14:00 GMT in order 
that the design can be updated.


Your participation would be welcome if it can be arranged, but fully 
understand if it cannot due to the short notice on this occasion. For 
future ODF Plugfests, we will try to provide sufficient notice for you 
to debate and prepare in good time.


Best regards,

Stuart.



From the Chair,

Stuart, thank you for your patience and keeping the AOO community tied 
into the planning for the ODF Plugfest and preparation of the booklet.


It appears that the “Application Choices” convergence achieved with 
the suggestions from Andrea Pescetti is quite satisfactory.There have 
been no objections whatsoever.


I appreciate that it is already evening where you are.The deadline for 
committing to booklet design will be early tomorrow for some of us, so 
I want to summarize where we stand.


PLUGFEST BOOKLET SPONSORSHIP

There is a simple consensus process for deliberation on travel funds, 
agreement to provide a sponsorship, and so on.


Although it was suggested that a proposal be deliberated on, it seems 
to have been a non-starter.I think it’s safe to say that we will not 
be requesting presentation as a sponsor for the booklet.If that 
changes in the few hours remaining, I will let you know as soon as 
anything to the contrary comes to my attention (at UTC-0700).


REPORTING TO THE PLUGFEST

Finally, the Plugfest is only 7 days ahead of us.It might be possible 
to have a few slides on “ODF in the Apache OpenOffice Marketplace” for 
the Tuesday, 2015-09-15 session on “ODF in the market place.”This has 
prompted barely-tentative discussion here.Again, there has not been 
much headway.It is definitely something for the project to look into. 
I am not certain what kind of findings can be provided at this point; 
having anything for the Plugfest seems doubtful.The topic is still 
open though.


Regards,

-Dennis

Andrea,



On reflection, we were not comfortable with the previously
published
"Application Choices"  table, we feel it was not fully
considered, so it
will be replaced in this version. I have included the proposed
replacement table at the end of this email


We don't CC you on all replies, but you can find a draft of the
current updates we would make to the Application Choices table
(limited to the OpenOffice entry of course) at
http://s.apache.org/Hoh (scroll down until the end)


I have reviewed the thread, thank you for your efforts and community 
engagement with this.



If that changes further, we'll send you an updated version by
Tuesday morning European time, but you can use that version for
the time being.


I have made a couple of minor alterations and propose that we include 
the following entry:


*Software*



*License*



*Formats (file types)*



*Platforms*



*Support*



*Link*



*Notes*

Apache OpenOffice



Open Source (ALv2)



All



Windows, OS X, Linux



Community



https://www.openoffice.org/



The default and recommended outputs are Extended ODF 1.2 documents. 
Third-party ports to Android, FreeBSD, OS/2 available



Please advise if this is acceptable.

Best regards,

Stuart.

RE: ODF Plugfest: participation and leaflets

[Dennis E. Hamilton]

Thanks, Stuart.
 
To be clear, I was not thinking of direct participation but something simple to 
be used in providing the “ODF in the marketplace” session with some useful 
self-explanatory data from the Apache OpenOffice Project.
 
In any case, I doubt there is something that could be done in this short time 
window.  I am thinking it would be something useful for the project to track 
and report on a quarterly basis, if feasible.

(Note, those of us with long standing in this project, and I count among them 
Andrea, Roberto, me, plus many others, may be forgiven moments of déjà vu, the 
sense that, "Haven’t we done this before? Solved that? Written the wikis, the 
guidelines? Established best practices?" To which, one can answer, Yes. Now 
let’s do it again.)

I think adding this event would be fine, and hopefully someone from the
AOO community will be there. Actually, this was my intention in posting
this email -- to include "non-official" events lacking awareness by us
but that might have general interest to the AOO community.

Agreed, and I'm really sorry I couldn't make it. In future we might want to
have a small team of people who knows how ODF Plugfests work and are
willing to attend, give a speech and run tests. I believe we need all these
three pieces to make our participation meaningful.

Considered the US long week-end 'issue' and the time frame, plus Dennis'
concerns it seems clear we're late for this. Also if I understand correctly
what that means is that they won't print our logo featured on the inside
back cover, not that the leaflet won't be printed. Given the fact we're not
attending or participating, this seems the less important thing to me.
