Hi all,

I would like to branch NB integration plugin for 3.0 and start modifying

You can if course create a branch but I don't see the demand for it.
You can continue the development towards 4.0 on trunk. I don't see
many activity here and a branch is not really necessary from my pov.

I agree. we can always create a branch based on a revision number
later if needed.




I thought about it more and since the next changes will be incompatible
with AOO 3.4 I tagged a 3.0.2 version and created a 3.0 branch to make
it easier if someone needs to make changes for 3.4 compatible plugins.




I agree now and with my upcoming 3layer removal there will be some work to do 
in the plugin. It mainly that places of jars, tools, libs have changed.

Juergen




Is this something that will be implemented in AOO 4 release?

Thanks,
Carl

How come it is a 3.0 branch ?? that sounds old to me, shouldnt it be
3.4.1x branch ?



The Netbeans plugin versions didn't historically coincide with the OOo 
version numbers (that I know of).


When the code came to Apache it was version 2.0.7 and I tagged that 
version and started work to make it run on Netbeans 6.9 which was 
Netbeans 7.0 api changes. That's when I changed it to 3.0. Some 
additional localization work took it to 3.0.2.


I'm not sure what the best solution to version numbering other than to 
do a major number change when it's not compatible with AOO or NB and 
keep a compatibility table somewhere.



I do agree with the principle in having a branch. We have however to make
it clear to developers, that when using that branch their code will not
avalible with 4.0.


I agree, that's why I hope everyone continues to do work on trunk and we 
only merge changes if needed for some reason. But we have a well 
established break point.

Daniel,

Can you provide more information about your environment.

I see netbeans is 7.2.1.

Is AOO and SDK 3.4.1?

And what version of windows and 32 or 64 bit.

Type and version of Java and 32 or 64 bit.


It's been a very long time since I used the SDK on Windows but I seem to 
remember having trouble unless I used 32 bit Java for OpenOffice and 
Netbeans even on 64 bit Windows.


Thanks,
Carl


Re: first look at a scrolling News column...

Well, I have finally put up a mockup of what a scrolling News column on our

This is in the test area on staging at the moment.

http://ooo-site.staging.apache.org/test/

This required editing changes to the index page and a minor styling change
for the home.css styles along with using an ssi for the news instead of two
areas.

For this mockup, I did take out a LOT of old news.

Anyway, see what you think. I find the scroll bars a bit ugly but we may be
able to pretty them up somehow.

This will save the hassle we currently do with the News items however.

Re: [PROPOSAL] New Apache OpenOffice 4 logo proposals...

2012-12-28 Thread Carl Marcum

On 12/26/2012 11:07 PM, Michael Acevedo wrote:

Greetings to all in the mailing list and those in this AOO Logo Proposal
subject,

In this email, I would like to mention that I have added two new logo
proposals to the Apache OpenOffice Logo exploration wiki article. Now let
me explain what this new logo it's all about.

The new logo design does away with the orb and changes it for a gull ring
that rests under a blue background which itself rests on circles which are
inspired on the Adobe Flex logo multicolor scheme. The new gull ring while
being new, retains the familiar circular shape of the current OpenOffice
logo, but at the same time is a new take that pays respect to the orb. All
of these elements are wrapped in a modern black gradient icon than makes
the logo stand out. Furthermore, the new logo actually changes the look of
the word OpenOffice into a more modern non-capitalized openoffice word
design (also an inspiration from the Adobe Flex project logo). The latter
serves the function of highlighting Apache as the owner of the project
(whose name is in capital letters), yet the non-capitalized openoffice
names takes presence by being written in a larger size font. Overall, the
new logo design is simple, clean, and modern.

Now that I have given a sense of the new logo, I would like to show you a
reveal video:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AC-tOuhTm9Y

But there is one last detail, which actually is a testament to the power of
OpenOffice. The detail is that the logo that you see at the end of the
video was 99% made in Apache OpenOffice Draw.

Hope you liked the logo and the reveal video.

Happy Holidays!

You can see the formal proposal in the Cwiki at Apache:

Greetings Kevin, I would not mind posting the logos to that AOO UX wiki.
Thing is I don't know where it is or whether it is on the cwiki or mwiki
(if it is on the latter, I need to request an account).

Let me know.

Michael,

Great work. Design is very iterative. Keep pushing!

Using the design explorations is a great way to stimulate a conversation
which can help us better understand the requirements. Perhaps we could
harvest the criteria for success in the thread and capture in the wiki

Then we can make the design review process less subjective by having
people review design explorations relative to stated goals.

Also, the mailing list is tough place to review designs, can you post the
design explorations to the AOO UX wiki?

Regards,
Kevin

I am no designer, but I have tried to make a suggestion to better

explain

what I mean.

The current proposals all have squares / circles etc. and apart from

the

original similarity with windows8 that has a special signal value.

A surface (square/circle etc) especially with a border, signal:
  - limitation or positive a product that fullfills a single purpose
  - closeness or positive a product the specialize in one function

AOO is in my mind much more, we are open at levels where normal

products

can only dream to go:
- AOO is used in nearly every corner of the earth.
- AOO is open for translation to no matter how small a language group
- AOO is open for developers who want to hack their own specialized
versions
- AOO is open for repackaging supplying the core of a wider extented
product.
I could go on.

I think it is important that our logo signals this freedom and

openess

after all we are OPEN office.



+1. The ring around the orb give the idea of boundaries, limits, and

we

are
trying to go beyond every limit ;)





I know my design is not professional, it is NOT meant to be so please

dont

judge it on that. It is simply a thought out of the box, and

hopefully it

can trigger some ideas.

You can see my proposal here:
http://people.apache.org/~jani/aoo.png



I like the idea. No sure if it fits well on a page header,
but definitely is a good idea for announcements, t-shirts and a lot of
other situations where a big logo is needed.

Ricardo

Re: Wish List Item - Compatibility with SolidWorks

2012-12-11 Thread Carl Marcum

Hi Al,

As another in the M.E.field and a user of SolidWorks I would like this 
as well. However, I don't see that progressing far until Dassault is 
looking for alternatives. Dassault and Microsoft are large partners and 
as this quote from Dassault:
“Microsoft technologies are at the foundation of everything we do. can 
be found on a Microsoft/Dassult partner page.

http://www.microsoft.com/enterprise/partners/dassault.aspx#fbid=FEwAECyPuBb

It's not just Excel, it's IE and Windows only also.

Best regards,
Carl

Greetings!
Open Office has been a standard for me for a long time. My thanks to all who 
have contributed in one way or another.
I ply my trade as a consulting mechanical engineer to a diverse list of 
manufacturers and create all of my design work in SolidWorks. Part  parcel 
with my work are Bills of Materials, Weldment Cut lists, Table of Contents, and 
other custom spreadsheets I have developed.
My clients have no issue with the Open Office document formats I use, and in 
some cases have moved their organizations solely to Open Office.
The challenge for me is I cannot directly import Open Office documents into 
SolidWorks (any version. I use SolidWorks 2010 and 2012). It is necessary to 
convert to MS Office formats, as that is the only format SolidWorks accepts.
While I can also convert to PDF and paste, there are the typical burdensome 
steps when document changes are required.  I do the usual work-arounds, but 
it's a pain to constantly have to go through the routines. Same with MS Office 
files.
How about getting with SolidWorks and get yourselves in their game? I am quite 
sure there are many, many others that would also appreciate the compatability.
Or, if you have solution, please give me a heads-up.

Best Regards,
Al
