Bugzilla refreshness

2017-02-08 Thread Peter Kovacs
Can we rename the Status "Not an Issue" to "is not reproduce able"?

I would also suggest to add a reason that expresses that this report needs
to be adressed on user channels first.

I think this nameing would carry more the message that we accept the users
problem as such, but we have difficulties to help.

Not an Issue has the feeling of We do not want to help you, even if this is
not true.

Re: Increase the number of tables in Calc

+1 for tests.

But honestly I would not expect a lot of effect if you are on a modern
machine with 4GB + memory and maybe SSD disks.

I would expect issues on older machines with maybe old technology and 2GB
memory.
These machines are old of course (my MacBook Air is such a machine, however
with an early SSD HD. 6 years old)
Maybe 2GB are sufficient. Depends on Data used. I think we should also test
on older machines to see the effects.

Re: Why do OpneOffice need to change Google Chrome?!

2017-02-04 Thread Peter Kovacs
I think you started the install directly through chrome. That's why it
refers to it. If you start the installer from your download file it should
not reference to chrome.
Did you check if OpenOffice was running?

Module Registry

2017-01-28 Thread Peter Kovacs

Hello,

I had some time today, focusing on my building efforts again.

I get an error for the registry build, which I find hard to sort out.

The registry module tries to build its own boost instance and conflicts 
in my build environment with the already build boost module.


I did not find the reason why the compiler thinks he has to compile 
boost again. Does anyone has an Idea where to look into this?

Re: Community building: give our User a chance to contribute!

2017-01-20 Thread Peter Kovacs
Hmm, the discussion moves in a wrong direction, with wrong assumptions. 
I am against a status quo solution. For me status quo directly transfers 
to nothing happens.


I am not talking of creating one Investor that provides Money. I aim at 
mobilizing as much as possible Open Office users has as Investors.


What I propose is a open crowd infrastructure. I do not believe Apache 
is capable of this, today. I do believe this is a near future, game 
changing model in general.



For me the model should respect:

# Fundraising itself is neutral (i.e. funds are not raised for 
developers but for tasks / actions)


# nonprofit (Funds are not ment to provide any profit to the 
organisation itself and are bound by activity. investor decided on.)


# Openess of the Infra (other Apache Project have acces to the same 
infra if they whish.)


# Openess in the community ( the funds on a task is open to all 
commiters if they manage to satisfy the requirement for a payout.)



This is just a rough outline, so you understand the direction (vision) I 
am thinking. Also please note that a lot question have to be answered. 
This is maybe 1% of a business plan.


I try to make a graph on the weekend. However I am not sure if I manage 
this on the weekend. (Thats why I have asked Raphael to give his vision).



I do not see any reason why this cannot be done by Apache itseslf. Also 
One or more 3rd Party supplier can provide the Infra in full or in 
parts. For me this question is an issue we need to deal with at a later 
stage. And I stress this point: It needs to happen in sync with Apache. 
A crowd funding community is a dragon. And as Dragons are, they can be 
difficult in times. You do well to be prepared.


I hope all are at least courious and support this with their hopes and 
fears. It would be so powerfull if we can make this work.



Stay agile, keep Chalanging

Not true. I am a Member of the Apache Software Foundation. That is just like a 
shareholder. For me that comes first. Then come PMC memberships and AOO is but 
one of mine.

In all this discussion please keep in mind that the ASF is a nonprofit and must 
not play favorites with anyone whether individual or corporation.

The ASF will protect its trademarks and expects that PMC does so.

If by negotiation there was some way the AOO project proposed funding for third 
parties to the ASF many questions would need to be answered including keeping 
the arrangement open to others, allocation of funds, auditing etc. This would 
be expensive. So, you can see that it just does not happen.

A clear separation between the third party and the ASF and the project MUST be 
kept.

I am ALL for a third party. Any developers and other employees/volunteers from 
that group who demonstrate merit here would have my support for committer 
status.

A third party might have a distribution powered by Apache OpenOffice. That 
could solicit. The project could decide to use a Powered By verification as a 
way to validate the downstream.

Something like that could work. It is close to the status quo.

Re: [lazy consensus] FreeBSD as a new supported platform?

2017-01-27 Thread Peter Kovacs
I think in future independent download source can become less accepted.
We should think of officially accept certain distribution routes.

For the definition of support I would go for what the community provides.
If we have people interested in FreeBSD then it's fine for me to call it
supported. If we do not have someone for Mac,  then mac falls out of
support.

Would it be more wise to go for BSD as OS instead of one distribution
FreeBSD? Or are BSD variants incompatible to each other?

Or we could go for solved bugs. If in one OS bugs pile up and no one is
solving they fall out of support.

I don't think we need complex categories here (especially because with
them a maintenance burden would come). In that source code README,
"supported" probably means "a platform for which we strive at producing
buildable source code".

Then the fact that we provide binaries for a subset of platforms will
simply be self-explanatory from the download page. In that view, for
example we "support" many more languages than those we build binaries for.

   Andrea.

IMHO Matthias Röllig just volunteered to start fixing the page. Maybe Sarah
Kragness and Martin Groenescheij would also step up if they were asked if
they help and we promise some help them to get up and running.

I honestly think the more upset people complain, the more we should take it
as a expression to volunteer to improve the situation. Even if they only
fix 10 templates it is 10 templates fixed.

Just my 2 cents.

jumpy Mouse behaviour

2017-02-22 Thread Peter Kovacs

Hello all,

The mouse behaviour is reacting quite jumpy if not set up right.

I had this Problem once on the mac, and I think I resolved it telling 
Open Office not to scroll by lines but by distance.


Anyone has an Idea if I can tell Windows on Opplication base not to 
scroll by lines or something?
I think I did something like this. But I am unsure... (And if so it 
might be on an older Open Office Version. My Mac is from 2009.)


All the best

we need this status to express that the reported issue is really not
related to OpenOffice.

There is already the resolution "IRREPRODUCIBLE" for what you want to
express. Together with a meaningful comment as reason it should be enough.

Maybe, but then it was not the right choice. ;-)

OO Build Guide Fedora

2017-02-10 Thread Peter Kovacs

Hello all,

I am looking at 
https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/Building_Guide_AOO/Step_by_step#Build_Instructions


Especially the Fedora part. We have here parts regarding 10,14,19, 21. I 
have downloaded from the Fedora Page Version 25, and Installed it in a VM.


Cant we move all Sections into one generic Fedora guide?

I am a bit buffeled that is so different.

Re: recently opened files change max entries

2017-02-10 Thread Peter Kovacs

Hi Matthias,

Thanks for your Brainstorm.
I checked and if you select an Open Document option, and start to type a 
recent document its already autocompleting.


You are suggesting to replace it with a dropdown that shows a filtered 
recent Document list?

Is this what you are suggesting?

All the best

Hello!


I think the number of entrys should be configurable in the settings.


If you thinking in this direction I have also a suggestion.

I have the “Load URL” field visible inside the Standard tool bar. This 
have many advantages:

1. A very longer history.
2. AutoCompletion for URLs. (directories/file)
3. Because under Ubuntu it is impossible to open files by dragging it 
from the file manager to the title bar (like under Windows), I can 
drag the file to the URL field and hit [Enter].


But I have a wish for this:
It would be very(!) nice if I could begin to write a filename and the 
URL field would suggest/list the hits in the history.




I also often move my files after editing.
When I click on the list of recently opened files most of them are not
accessible any more.


For the URL field I wish it like in firefox:
scroll to the desired entry and press ([Shift]+)[Del].

Re: recently opened files change max entries

2017-02-11 Thread Peter Kovacs

Hello Matthias!

I thought about this a little. I think to mix up both behaviours is not 
simple anymore for users. I dislike the implicity of the approach. For a 
new user it is not transperent that OpenOffice will take the recent 
document into account.

I think we should stick with a transparent approach.

what I could imagine would be a virtual folder Recent documents, that 
would contain a list with all entries from recent document List. You can 
work with this folder and search as you are used to.
However that is then not part of the recent Document list rework 
anymore, but an overhaul of the Open Item, where we also have to think 
about cloud working as you have pointed out.

So I would not like to mix both topics, even if they are related.


All the best.
Peter


On 11.02.2017 10:11, Mathias Röllig wrote:
Not really. In a Linux/Unix system a path always begins with / (in 
Windows with :\).


So my proposal is:

1. The behaviour of now (leave it unchanged):¹
If one type the beginning of a path → autocompletion.
Please consider that you can change the offer with cursor up/down.
Example: If you write »/D« AOO completes to »/Documents« 
with »ocuments« highlighted. Press [↓] it will change to 
»/Downloads« with »ownloads« highlighted. Or open ([Alt]+[↓]) 
the dropdown list with the matching paths/filenames.
Select the desired folder with [↓]/[↑] and press [→]. Repeat until you 
have selected the right file and press [Enter].



2.  Additional(!) behaviour (wish):
If one type the beginning of a filename (without any path 
identification) /then/ there should open a dropdown with the matching 
/filenames/ from the history.

Example: If you write »m« open a list with
|/minions.odt
|/minions2.ods
|/my file1.odt
|[…] aso.
With the next letter the search will refined.
With [↓]/[↑] one can go through the list and press [Enter] for the 
selected entry. Or simply click on it with the mouse cursor.



Number 1 works (as I know) only for the file system.
Number 2 respects all protocols (http, ftp, …) you have used and which 
are in the history.



Regards, Mathias
¹ At the moment there seems to be a bug.
If one types the beginning of a path and one afterward delete this 
input, the history doesn't come back – there stays the list with the 
matching paths/files.

Re: download of software and back up

2017-02-16 Thread Peter Kovacs

Hi Vl

In Order to avoid missunderstandings.

Apache Open Office does not provide back ups for Microsoft Office.

We do provide an alternate solution to Microsoft Office.

You can download Apache Open Office from http://www.openoffice.org/

There is no key or what so ever needed to make use of the full 
capability of the suite.



Please note despite you can use all functionality of Open Office, we 
rely on voluntary help of the Product.


So any improvements are dependant on the voluntary help of its 
community. So I personally do not like to call the suite free.


But the price is felxible and depends on how you want to support the 
community.



If you tell us the language you nativly speak we can provide you maybe a 
link in your mother tongue.



All the best

gnu make port and the build.pl script

2017-02-15 Thread Peter Kovacs

Hello,

will we get rid of the build.pl script once the gnu make port is over?

just asking, because I then I dont start debugging the script. I have 
realy strange issues.


I run into an compile error with build --all.

Then I switch into the module start again build --all and the module 
builds and delivers flawlessly.


It is very strange behaviour.

Included that the Script produces different results at each run, does 
not give me confidence.


I would very much decomission this perl build tool all together.

@Dave can you name one of this group you refer to?

they have such structures they might be close to what AOO needs.

Also I will check out the mailing list. Maybe I can get an insight on how

And while I am at it, is there a picture how our community currently works?

2017-01-18 Thread Peter Kovacs
Star Citizen proofed that a community can follow developers intend and
raise the money needed.
Even if we can not use the business model, we can learn something from
their communication model they have developed.

Also what becomes clear to me is that we can not operate with a single
entity. If I consider that we need to position us global right from the
start, this is not so bad.

Maybe it would be better if we lay out a white paper on some model. Then we
talk about this. We can then check for concerns. Note them down and find a
solution for it.
@Raphael do you like to write your idea in a document? I think we have a
similar idea. Maybe I can put my idea as variation suggestion next to it
afterwards.
Then we can see if we can refine the document.
I think we need to focus on reaching a goal somehow, this discussion
dissolves somewhat because we focus to much on the ASF and bugs. Then on
goals concepts and stuff.

When we have a clear view, we can reach out to the ASF and hear their
concerns, update the concept based on their feedback. I assume this way we
will find a solution that works for everybody.

In Germany it is said that to lay out a business model takes 8 -16 month.
So IMHO we have time, does not need to be perfect.

All the best

Re: Community building: give our User a chance to contribute!

2017-01-17 Thread Peter Kovacs
If a member can not collect for the hole project, I think the ASF should
do. That would be the simplest solution.
Can we ask the ASF what they think? Are they against a simple OpenOffice
development specific fund?
After all this is a end user product, not some IT component.

Maybe we think and speculate to much, and should talk with the ASF first,
asking them for help.

After all the donation text does not sound like ASF is against something
like this.
And they have seen what it means if no core team is availabe.

I guess they are open for ideas.

Re: Community building: give our User a chance to contribute!

2017-01-19 Thread Peter Kovacs
Dennis, I agree that the PMC has to take the discussion in the end. 
However for me as a noob, the PMC is a Part of the ASF.
I also agree on the beeing specific part. Thats why I would like to have 
better layout, because I believe that centers the discussion more 
solution finding.


This is also a topic that in my eyes is a PMC core point. We have a 
unique Community structure, because a lot of our community are none IT 
knowlegeable folks.
And currently we do only little work in community building. Plus we 
realy suck from the dev side in communicating with our community.


I personally do not care so much if we have 100 entities following up on 
the goal.
But in my eyes we need a way to ensure project health and turn towards 
the community we have. We were last year at the edge of project 
retirement. We are slowly fighting our way out by pure voluntary work of 
people that belive in the market name Open Office.
How long can we keep this up? Especially with the constant annoyance of 
Libre Office shooting at our faulty structures.
We need ways to build strebgthen our core, and that goes beyond what we 
do now. How we can achieve this I do not know.


I think LibreOffice are to a certain degree correct. The ASF is not 
capable to do the Project Open Office at this Point. The structure of 
Libre Office is a much more healthy one for the kind of Project 
Libre/Open Office is.
However I think we can build a similar powerfull structure if not more 
powerfull. At the same time we must walk in Sync with the ASF.


This is what the Discussion is all about. If we move in the wrong 
direction, please suggest a better one.


At least this is my view on the topic. I declare also that I personally 
have no interest in payed dev work. I switch my employee soon, and my 
future employee restricts my codeing work towards my contract with the 
ASF. I am currently enjoy more freedom. I am doing this out of love 
towards Open Office. I say this so no one gets the wrong thoughts.


All the best
Peter

I have comments in-line.

Also, let us speak of chicken and egg.

I observe that the Board and the Offices of ASF do not wish to deal with hypothetical 
cases.  Exceptions must be specific and actionable.  Also, exceptions do not create 
precedents.  If one project sees something they want as exception for them, they must 
create specific exception of their own.  (AOO has exception for bundling some writing 
tools in binaries only, not in source code, because licenses are incompatible.  It is 
very specific and not a precedent for other projects. When details of another exception 
are worked out, it is often revealed that the cases are not the same. The ASF avoids 
common risk of others seeing more "precedent" for their case than there 
actually is.)

It seems to me that if there is a request for some sort of external 
relationship(s), the external parties must already exist and be prepared to 
provide detailed agreement on how it will partner with AOO project in a way 
that preserves the principles and purpose of the ASF in how AOO participates in 
the arrangement.  This is not hard.

I do not think making exceptions about hypothetical arrangements and then 
seeking external parties will work.

That is why it may be better for external party to be created first, operating 
as good downstream citizen, before requiring anything of the AOO PMC and ASF 
Board.  Ideally, no significant attention will be required.  The only thing 
external entity cannot do, and PMC would have to intervene, is make use of 
Apache trademarks in other than allowed ways.  Since it is not proposed that 
the external entity release any software product, this should be agreeable.

Also, the external party should not promise others that requested features will 
be incorporated in AOO in the manner they desire.  They will never have the 
authority to control AOO project actions, even though by mutual work, there may 
often be good alignment.

Only my thoughts, not thoughts from any PMC or Board discussion.

Even if we can not use the business model, we can learn something from

Also what becomes clear to me is that we can not operate with a single

I checked today the Wiki. It was very confusing to me. "Development" 
seems to think more on Extending OOo in the sense of an Extension. It is 
not so much focusing on OOo Code itself. So I am not sure what you refer

[Issue 123308] [Discuss] Close Issue 123308

2016-09-13 Thread Peter Kovacs

Hello all,


The Case:

The reporter reports that shortcuts has been changed not by him. He 
added a Document with hebrew letters. Later a screenshot was added by 
the reporter that prooves that the shortcuts has been changed.


The possible Issue:

What i can make out is that the Shortcuts have been changed for unknown 
reason.



My conclusion:

This bug refers to 3.4.0. Could not get confirmation until today. I 
tried with 4.1.2 on Mac. And failed too. In order to corner this 
Incident more closely we need more information. I doubt anyone knows 
what happened after so longtime.


I would like to close this Issue, in combinaton with a comment to kindly 
ask in case this problem persists in an actual version, to file a new 
bug or reopen this bug. Not sure which process the project prefers.



At least I would like to downgrade the P1 Priority since this is no show 
stopper, more a shadow hunt.


What are your thoughts?

All the best

I want to support OO development

2016-09-11 Thread Peter Kovacs

Hello Open Office Dev Community,

Dennis E. Hamilton forwarded my message to this list. Thank you for this 
activity. I was in the opinion that I have no time and therefore can not 
join the list or help.
However OpenOffice devlopment is on my mind for a complete week now. So 
I decided I free up time and will focus on developing for Apache Open 
Office.
The activity of freeing up time is not that easy, and I am still working 
on it. So for starters I will use 4h per week for OO trying to move up 
to 8h.

However I have to solve some other topics for this.

I worked for the last 10 Years as a BI specialist consultant with focus 
on a language called SAS. I am experienced SQL Scripter.
In my last project I had to take over a simple .net Program because the 
originated Programmer could not be further payed.
I wrote once a Java Application in order to give a customer an easy tool 
to verify the Outcome of a delivery.

I even had to document a COBOL Programm once.
My Diploma thesis involved a webapp Application written in php and perl 
(ver. 5).

I was messing around with python for a while and I am a big fan of Ceylon.

And most important since my study times I now and then mess around with 
c++. I am a big fan of Bjarne Stroustrup " A tour of C++" and still 
trying to understand Alexandrescu " Modern c++ design"

So I hope no one minds if I try to utilize this knowledge.

I am long time user of Open Office and its derivate Libre Office. So I 
am quite proficient with it as a user. (However I have to admit I am 
latly useing mostly Microsoft products due business focus.)
I am german nativ speaker, with acceptable english skills. And I have 
some crappy hungarian skill. ;)


I even have a "build experience" of Open Office. Back in 2005 (I think) 
I was a big fan of Gentoo. I even build Open Office from source code. It 
just took me 11h compile time on a Athlon XP System. Which was the 
longest compile effort I had to wait for back then. lol! (The credits go 
to the awesome Gentoo distribution, my effort was only the patience to 
wait that the update finishes.)


Long story short. I know
# a lot of languages badly
# a language that is itself a mess.
# how to development in crappy envoirments.

I value
# maintainability
# necessary documentation
# comments
# smart easy to use code.

I would privatly like to achieve to improve
 #  build times
 #  maintainability

This is my 3rd Open Office Project I was involved.
# piArmada I want to produce a follow up version. But I lack the skills, 
and it is hard to build skill alone.
# AutoRealm, I supported a redevelopment a little bit. However I did not 
feel very comfortable due to my rather low c++ skill.


My suggestiones I send to Dennis are still valid for me. They should 
give orientation what I prefer, but I think I am the Noob here, and it 
is not my place to decide. Maybe when I have manged to build some 
reputation I will bring one or the other topic up.
Reference: 
http://www.mail-archive.com/dev@openoffice.apache.org/msg28377.html


I use Arch Linux on an ASUS Ultrabook which is my devlopment machine, 
since it has the best hardware.

I own a macbook air from 2009  and Windows 10 on a desktop system.

So I suggest I start with trying to buid OO on the Mac. See how this 
goes. I had the impression this could be a quick win for the project and 
a good entry point for me.

If someone has a different Idea, I am open for discussion or swap focus.

So Here I am at your service. :-D
I am looking very much to code with you.

All the best.
Peter


Re: [discussion] Where to talk about Issues?

2016-09-13 Thread Peter Kovacs
Thanks for the info.
I do not want to rampage through bugzilla and close/reject Issues because I
think they are rubbish.
Rubbish means I can not define the next action to proceed.
So better discuss this first, and check for other opinions.

All the best

[Discussion] Office Architecture

2016-10-05 Thread Peter Kovacs

Hello all,


I am trying to understand the Architecture of OO. And i have a bit 
difficults to this. Mainly because I am Data Driven programmer (I suck 
when i have to write a gui), and the approach taken seems a GUI driven one.


So from hat I understand is, that on the Low lever we have "Primitives". 
Those Primitives are not an abstract view of Code, but already Graphical 
representations. (I found references from UNO to AWT. So I assume this.)


From these Primitives OO tailors an Abstract Toolset, called Framework 
which then get implemented into the Application like Writer or Calc etc.


Is this fundamental Idea of the Architecture correct?


Thanks

Peter

My fear is: if AOO exports in OOXML (as LibO does), what will happen

You seem to like the way ODFormat is defined. I think we should support 
you and offer you the choice for various options on this file format.
Maybe something a compatible ODF definition towards MSO, so you are safe 
that you MSO buddy can exchange documents with you.

Or offer you ODF 1.2 standard. So you feel more home and save.

But what is with Bill Pate, who has done a lot of work, and is looking 
atm for a different tool.
He has fear that all his work is lost or unsuable of sorts when he 
imports to Open Office. Or maybe his work is lost after a while he finds 
out he misses MSO so much he wants to return.
We should also try to answer towards his fear. (please note I assume 
here something, but the assumption is for makeing a position clear not 
for anything else.)


See I want to stay open. That means I work into the direction that 
supports your requirement and to Bill Pate requirement. Giving both of 
you the maximum of choice that is possible to provide with the available 
ressources.
This is a huge maybe impossible challenge. But I have some Ideas. Still 
looking what Open Office already implements of them and what has to be 
improved. And I will not manage to deliver on time atm. But I hope I 
find support. In you and others that are interested in OO.
Openess incorporates for me /*Liberté, Égalité, Fraternité*/. Not fully 
supporting OOXML means giving up on Égalité. Not accepting the Users 
requirements is against my whish for Fraternité.
For me there is a political dimension in joining Open Office. And also 
imortant one in this times.

The ASF has a signing solution (from Symantec) available, but if I 
recall correctly it does not apply to Mac, only Windows. I can 
double-check but, due to a long history of misunderstandings and

like to be sure that we are serious about getting this done before 
proceeding.


I agree. This is a complex topic with a lots of possible 
missunderstandings if not spoken clearly.

I would like to see the old communication. Was the dev mailinglist involved?

What kind of seriousness do you need?
Like I volunteering to drive this in a civilised provesional mannor 
would be sufficient for you?

Or should we do a vote?

In case of a vote, I would prepare all the facts I can find. So everyone 
can have at least a summary what we are heading towards before proceeding.

Of course this will take a bit. Since I am not Quick :-D.

More Code Documentation available?

Hello all,


I have some Problems in understanding the Concept of the code. 
Especially the not obvious parts are difficult.


So What I have read are some architectur overview Documentation on 
OpenOffice wiki. Also on the same ressource some uno Documentation.



I am currently focusing into understanding how the Writer manages a 
document.


Is there a unified concept for Multithreading?

Does someone still understand the part or knows if we can reach out to 
the developers who resigned from it in order to ask them Questions?


Do we have more documentation in general somewhere?


Thanks!

Re: 4.1.4 Release Manager?

2016-09-17 Thread Peter Kovacs
Hmm, does anyone know an artist that has some time and can draw a splash 
screen?
I would love to see the next edition Called 4.1.3 Phoenix addition, And 
I would love to see a Splashscreen that shows an Phönix carry the AOOo 
Logo upward.
That would make a statement. Actually thinking of it, if this is liked 
by the community I would pledge 50 Euro for an acceptable artwork (means 
liked by AOOo. If this is dev or all involved we could discuss.).

Haha.

for the followup release I would stay with 4.2.0 as the /life, the 
universe and everything Version of OOo. I actually like that too much./


5.0.0 I would like to have for something moonshot like. I have fear you 
will hate me for what I have in mind, because this is a meocratic 
Project, and stuff. I did not came around yet to read what Jörg send me 
for reading to understand you guys more. Hope I manage later to day.
But I would call the 5.0.0 Version Sun. Which is also a great Wordgame 
for something that has been moonshoted and if you look at the history of 
OO. As Splash I would suggest the Logo with a sun corona.
This would be so super cool. I would also pledge some money here for 
an artist, if the Community agrees. Haha!

Any real reason to name it 4.2.0 ?


Two years of miscellaneous changes and fixes, a radically

improved build system, unit tests at build time, updates of a
lot of libraries, support for new languages, new
translations, new dictionaries... if this is not 4.2.0 it
should be named 5.0.




That was kind of my thoughts... or maybe call it 4.5.0

The idea is to represent the "re-charged" AOO project with
a meaningful change in version.


OK, an idea which I understand.

But one could, in this context, not to think about a completely 
different way of

naming?

(a)
What if we took us Ubuntu as an example?

Ubuntu 4.16 is called "Xenial Xerus" and AOO 4.2 or 4.5 or 5.0 (and 
so on) might

be called "Lively Phoenix"? (just an example)


as an addition to the numbering schema this could work. Then we can 
give the release a special touch/meaning/expression or whatever is 
best for the respective release time frame.



(b)
Or you choose a more formal type of label them.
OK, "AOO XP" would probably not so great, but what would be, for 
example, with

"AOO NE" (for new experience)?


From the view point of a normal user I find it confusing as there is 
no comparsion pattern and you don't know what was first and was next.


I think that the reason that Microsoft has come back to numbers for 
the versioning schema. I don't see any need to go their way, make the 
same experience and come back to the numbers.


So, please no version numbering with words/text only.

even *try*. If you do something, at least try to be the best, and 
don't just copy what another has done in the hopes of some success.


With computer games, this is often shown with the lack of creative story.
I recommend the documentary: indi games: the movie. Gives you an Idea on

Re: 4.1.4 Release Manager?

2016-09-19 Thread Peter Kovacs
The idea for the Phönix Motiv is ment as a statement. And IMHO has most
drama on 4.1.3 release.

Today Xing (Germans linkid social media ) posted the article from ZDF.de
(Germans 2nd state TV station) about the upcoming death of open office.
Referring Dennis email about the idea of retirement for open office as
upcoming result.

The arguments were:
No update
Outdated developer plan
Only 6 active developers
Dropping user numbers
Dennis mail of retirement  (that it is a discussion point is briefly
ignored)

But true, maybe it is not worth the attention ^^

Re: Become the IMAP client for documents [Re: Differentiate or Die]

2016-09-17 Thread Peter Kovacs

Hello


I have a question.

I dont know the Open Document Foundation. But maybe they work on it. I 
mean they forked from Oracle OpenOffice because they were frustrated 
that the errors were not fixed.


I personly do not know, but I would not be surprised if Apache 
Foundation as the successor to Oracle has not has such structures. I 
think classic way is within Apaches Foundation that they cooperate with 
one or more  interst groups (free devlopers, communities, cooperations / 
Companies) that has an interest in development of the Product. With this 
method different Companies can cooperate in order to achieve their 
individual goals and save money with synergy. Can someone maybe enlight 
this point? Am I right?


So the question is which Structures does Apache Open Office offers to 
users?



Xen are you willing to pay a sum in order to get a fullfillment of your 
needs? - Or is it more important to you that the feature you need 
already exist?


(Maybe WPS is a good alternate to you then. I read in the german Linux 
magazin (I think latest edition) that they are pretty stable and quite 
good on working with docx.)



I believe Open Source as such has no Market interest. They exist as long 
as someone has the Code. Development is not the main focus.


All the best.

Phillip Rhodes schreef op 08-09-2016 22:18:

So anyway, just wanted to seed this discussion and hopefully provoke 
some
serious thinking around this.  Let's think hard about what we want to 
be so

that
we can easily say "Why develop/use AOO instead of X?" type questions.


I just wanted to take this opportunity to voice my ideas again ;-).

I will keep it short this time.

I am a user who is disgrunted by both the features and stability of 
LibreOffice and probably also OpenOffice, since many features are the 
same. One important feature for me is a GOOD undo facility and both 
products don't have it, because they don't store, or merge, block 
level undo's resulting from typing. In mostly any editor I can go 
infinitely into the past as I undo stuff but in OO and LO it is 
limited to a few sentences at most.


Last time this happened I swore to never use LO again and started 
using Google Docs.


The only reason I am not using Microsoft Office (365) now is that 
there is no Linux variant of it.


Given these flaws and failings for me (and sometimes LO just crashes 
and takes your work with you and it is unrecoverable) and given the 
fact that I think OO looks outdated (on Linux), I would have ventured 
in the past that these were the most important things for me:


* I do not want to be exclusively dependent on the ODT format editors 
anymore
- In Windows I have much better fonts available (or more of them) than 
in Linux
- Even Google Docs just has much better fonts than Linux and it even 
has the Linux fonts, so there you ahve that.


* I would like AOO (or anything) to be a glue between the platforms. 
Cloud is becoming very important or is already so. Being able to 
reference documents on Google Drive can be important. Being able to 
reference documents on Microsoft OneDrive can be important.


- Google Docs natively saves.. or ehm, downloads, documents in .docx, 
but can also process .odt, I believe. So in order to stay relevant you 
must focus, for instance, on perfect interoperability between AOO and 
the .docx that result from Google Docs.


- Since there is no Microsoft Office client on Linux, and neither do 
they have an online editor, it becomes product to become that client 
to Microsoft OneDrive that can also edit or save in .docx format. Now 
there are a few meagre solutions for using OneDrive on Linux, but it 
is not much.


Suppose AOO had its own OneDrive client plugin? That you could use AOO 
to browse and modify, load and save, documents on OneDrive?


Just the same as that Microsoft Office would do, is what I mean. Just 
become cloud-ready. Just allow a person to save on OneDrive.


* Fix the OpenOffice looks (at least on Linux). That black hard shadow 
behind the "page" is not good enough anymore. Make sure it looks nice 
enough and start with that thick black border.


Google Docs works awesomely if a bit slow (due to the internet 
connection) and you can't do everything you can do in a regular editor 
(particularly positioning and such things) (and you can only choose a 
few font sizes) but in general (apart from not being able to actually 
manually really save stuff) the editing experience is much nice than 
either OpenOffice or LibreOffice. And it's just a new product, right.


It's not perfect but looks much better than anything else I've seen 
and you don't run the risk of losing your content, that I constantly 
have with LibreOffice/OO.


I have probably lost important court battles due to LibreOffice.

So I will say 3 things:

- fix the looks
- interoperate with OneDrive and Google Drive if possible (OneDrive 
more important) and ensure perfect compability with these

[Noob] Code question

2016-10-02 Thread Peter Kovacs
Hello all.

I am reviewing code whenever I find time.
I find the code sometimes hard to read, due lack of experience with c++.
So I would like to ask if someone can confirm / explain the following
definition to me:
File:  basicmanagerrepository.hxx
Class BasicManager;

Namespace basic {
  class SAL NO VTABLE BasicManagerCreationlistener {
...

Question:
I am irritated by the lonely global class BasicManager.
So the file defines the class global and the other class in the name space
basic? (Both are independent by this definition( not talking about the
implementaition)?
What does SAL NO VTABLE mean? Is it macro code?

You find the file in main/basic/inc/basic

All the best
Peter

Re: In regards to Open Office

2016-10-02 Thread Peter Kovacs
Hi Bill,

According to the german Linux Magazin 09/16 which has tested the import
capabilities of Apache OpenOffice, LibreOffice, softmaker office and WPS,
it depends on your documents. For Apache OpenOffice I found the following:
If you consider the operating system, too. You should make sure that you
install all fonts you used in your documents in order to avoid layout
breaks.

OpenOffice 4.1.2 has problems on the docx format if you use graphics. It
can happen that these graphics are not imported and dissappear.
You could save your writings in this case using the legacy format, however
under certain circumstances OpenOffice treats the pictures differently then
Microsoft and the layout breaks.
The layout difficulties can also happen with tables.

I did not find the time to investigate this further. So I am not sure if we
have development on the mentioned issues already.

I would like to encourage you to try never the less and be careful. Make a
copy of the documents you check and investigate if our project is importing
the document to your satisfaction.
If not we would be happy on feedback for further investigation on our side,
in case of issues.
I will keep an eye for your response and try to help you in a timely
matter. However I do this on my free time.

I understand that this is not the result you are looking for but our
product is not charged through the work that has already done. Our belief
is that only the work that unfinished is worth charging. Currently the only
payment we accept is that you invest your precious time and report your
problems you face at the import to us.

At least that is my current knowledge.
All the best
Peter

Re: In regards to Open Office

2016-10-02 Thread Peter Kovacs
You guys now lost me.
A file should have a consistent state independent of the implementation of
the writing software. And we should take care that our implementation leads
to the same positioning on the paper.

The tool that is able to read what is on the market or the next big thing
wins the race. I would like to see that we try to work in that direction.
I mean the operation should be always similar.
In doubt we can offer the user import tools to decide which behaviour he
wants /needs.

Good night.

[Proposal] Publish Apache Open Office on the apple store.

2016-10-03 Thread Peter Kovacs

Hello all,

I would like to propose to publish _Open Office_ as _Apache Foundation_ 
on the Apple store.


I am always dissapointed when I see some unknown developer publishes 
Open Source, and the Project itself is not present.

Afaik this costs money (99$/year).
Here is a blog post that explains the details what is involved as effort:
https://www.raywenderlich.com/127936/submit-an-app-part-1

Does the Apache Foundation allow this?
What does such a move involve on our side?
Where can we get the money from?
Do we want to do this on a general thought?

I would volunteer as a Apple Store publisher, if it comes down for 
volunteers who do it.

But I think this is only the last piece to think about.

all the best
Peter

Well, I dont know if it is exactly a fud. There is a cornerstone truce 
to this.
Do not forget Microsoft was pretty much surprised by the success of ODF 
specification becoming a public ISO Standard.
Their first definition was hastely published, in Microsoft style. It was 
a agressive reponse. The stake back then was high for both sides. Media 
did support all sorts of sides in this time.
With ODF becoming ISO standard, the doors into US public service were 
open. This was acclaimed as a break of the Microsoft Office monopol.
As much as I remeber the OOXML allows you to add binary files directly 
into the document, which are not further defined. I mean it could be 
anything, and only Microsoft Office did know what it saved in these spots.
So yea the standard could techicly be only a shell and still remain 
intransparent. But IMHO it was only a specification flaw. For OpenSource 
warriors this was of course the invitation battle MS.
I think on Open source front, the success of ODF changed the attitude of 
embracing other Formats.
Before that there was a strong drive to make the Microsoft binary 
formats work. And support to support other Formats. This will dropped 
after the success of ODF.
But with OOXML tied to MS, and OO focusing on ODF the seperation on the 
market was imident, which was bad for bizzness.
So I think it turned a little when Novell (looking back, who had already 
bad experience with a similar situation n the UNIX market ;) ) made the 
cooperation deal with Microsoft to jointly work on both formats.
It is the turning point for Microsoft from fighting open source to 
embrace it.
However I think the bad Karma from the days still sticks for most 
people. Ballmer style just broke to much Glass in his time and MS just 
was to good Empire for the Rebellion.


I do belive that real openess is about choice, not about transparency. 
Transperency is about trust.
ODF has a better trancperency then OOXML. But beeing open we need to 
embrace and value both formats.

Re: [Issue58861] Bugzilla too intimidating ?

Hi Peter, all

Bugzilla is a technical tool designed by developers for developers.
The simple fact that you need to subscribe to bugzilla is the first 
obstacle to reporting a bug.
As a long time bug reporter I consider that Bugzilla is NOT user 
friendly. It is possibly the most systematic tool available.


I am not aware of any bug tracker system that is user friendly... I 
think that it's not possible to be systematic, concise, accurate and 
friendly at the same time.
Haha, sorry. Thats not my opinion. I am quite content with Bugzilla as 
it is.


What argument would you use to close it? NOT_AN_ISSUE is not true. It 
is definitely not OBSOLETE...
Maybe WONT_FIX with the true argument that the community does not have 
the manpower to switch to another tool.
done. I did not waste a thought on this. For me Not An Issue is as true 
as wont fix. The result is the same. But I think it is also nit picking, 
and wont fix, might be more aceptable then not accepting the issue of 
someone else, i changed it.


I wanted to know in case if there is a change to Jira planned if we want 
this Issue to operate on.
In my opinion a Bug tracker is Dev Space not user space. And even if 
when I try to give a user a satisfactory answer, I am fine if someone 
else gives a non satisfactory answers.

And most Answers we currently close tickets with are none user friendly.

In my opinion it would need a Community team instead of a QA team to 
translate User issues (from a Forum?) into Bug tracker Issues. But we 
dont have that ressources I think. We can only work through the Mess we 
have and see if we find stuff worth solving.
Sorry for the rather negative picture. But I checked and we have 3000+ 
unconfirmed Issues. I will try to help here as much as I can. But I also 
want to develop something. And it is realy not easy if there is the 
thing you want to do in one corner and the thing that makes sense in the 
other corner. This is a bit frustrating Picture for me. :P

Re: openoffice programming

2016-10-14 Thread Peter Kovacs
  Instead of Languages I rather would like to discuss overall 
architecture. The initial Architecture has not been changed much since 
it was introduced i think.
But over time the requirements I see in the code have changed. Solving 
Requirements with code and without adjusting the architecture leads to a 
certain maintainability decay.


I.E. it looks to me that at first the sw had a document class, and was a 
simple writing app. Then someone had the Idea that features he needed in 
writer, he could use in tables too.
So the UNO Idea was born. But this new feature was only attached to the 
existing architecture. And because Java was the cool thing of its time 
they used it.
Please this is no critic or complain. Just the way I think  the code 
might become what it is today. these things are normal. I see it every day.


For the existing architecture the central thing is in my opinion the 
"framework".
Which melts the document together with the GUI, by using UNO 
architecture. (roughly, may be wrong)
It has various concepts doubled, or distributed through the code. trying 
to package funcionality into small modular "services"



I want to plead for a more natural abstract Architecture approach. Which 
is Modular on a greaterscale, to provide orientation. And being Modular 
on small scale to be as much as possible stay generic. In between we 
need to be concrete and descriptive.


The Core piece for me for a futer possible architecture is an 
UNO::Document. The UNO::Document represents an Abstract view of a 
Document and its components.
And it delivers One Memory implementation for the structure the user 
works on.

That would be for me in a  (not comlete) list:
 # tables
 # paragraph (text)
 # Linked Lists
 # Pictures
 # grahical Items
 # Indexes
 # documents
 # formdefinition
 # Layouts
Which offers one abstract implementation independant of the target 
program (writer, tables, math, base).
Plus haveing one Interface to Manipulate and tracks Manipulations of 
these elements.


Gathering all GUI stuff into a Control Architecture. So we can Produce 
the (G)UI want. (MVC or MV are one of the Buzzwords I think of)
This part can focus on its usage like classic office apps, document 
fabric service, online service, or what else we want to add.
I advise to move over to use Vulcan, HeavyMetal and/or OpenGL as 
graphical render languages in the long run. This might seem to shoot 
with cannons on birds,
but to be honest, modern PC Architecture is based on GPUs and multi 
purpose CPUs, and it is stupid not to use both to show stuff. Makes live 
so much easier, the GPUs do take care of all the stuff we want.
Also Android or iOS architecture can be targeted if we do it right, 
without a big fuzz. However we need to think differently user experience 
on those devices. I think with a Office renderengine we can focus on

this.

Also we should cluster Importers/Exporters into one set. OOXML and 
ODFormat is the same XML Idea.
There should not be the trouble of inventing the wheel all over it again 
and again.
Also data connectivity should be placed here. There should be One 
approach to access or write to Disk, cloud, internet, database.
I would prefer Java here, since it is quite capable of handling XML, 
internet, db and data streams.
Maybe not obvious that I see a database here. For me a DB is never a 
Frontend, only a backend tool. OO is to me a clear Frontend tool.


I would like to cluster is to have One MacroInterface where all 
Languages can attach to.


The only thing this Architecture might be difficult are Extentions. We 
need to think how this has to be handled. Especially with the existing 
stuff around.


I think this aproach is easy to understand even for starters, compared 
to the Architecture currently used. If you think on the details just 
think of components you would expect to drill down in this section.
Also we could start with only clustering the existing code, so we know 
what we look at. I think current Architecture does feature some of the 
layout at least a bit. Then start slowly to change code to honor the 
target architecture more and more. In total I think maybe a bit naive, 
that this way is do able without the need to do it all in one step, and 
beeing able to iterate at a speed we manage.


I want to add I am not completly sure about the current architecture. So 
if I am wrong and my understanding is frawed, please take my apologies.
I wrote the mail because I do not believe in language discussions 
without haveing a architecture discussion first. And so I bring it on 
the table with the preperation state I am in.

It is better to have a bad start then to miss the discussion.
I rather would have liked to check more on current code befor makeing 
proposals which are based upon the Idea what I would like to have in 
order to guide me.


In the end I think even if you like the approach this can only the start 
of an architectural discussion. If you do not like the approach we need 
to sample

Where? When you cite the wiki please always send the link, since there 
are a lot of outdated pages that are not marked as such (by the way, 
if you want to help in doing so while you go through the build you are 
welcome; just ask for a MWiki account here on the list in case).

sure. I am sorry I thought its obvious which page I look at.
If I change something depends on the need to do it. I am open for

Give the precise URL and we can take a look. Note: using a search 
engine will often bring you to an outdated page. Always start from 
https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/Building_Guide_AOO
My appologies. I thought there is only one build guide - the one you 
mention. And this leads you to the Linux section:

https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/Building_Guide_AOO/Building_on_Linux



Which Versions do our build bots use? I think they should be the
reference or?


We build daily snapshots and releases. For daily snapshots we use what 
Infra wants to supply (usually a long-term-support Ubuntu); for 
releases we use our reference baseline (currently CentOS 5, a very old 
distribution; this guarantees that our binaries will run on all 
distributions that are the same age as CentOS 5 or later, so 
practically all Linux desktop machines in use).
I am not sure if I was readable. At least you do not answer my question. 
Please let me refrase:
Should the reference gcc Version mentioned in the wikipage be the same 
that is used in CentOS 5? (In my Opinion yes...)

Which is the GCC Version that CentOS 5 is using ?
:-D
I am sorry. I am sometimes not paying attention what other people read.

  Andrea.

I have the  persistant issue mentioned in the subject with the icu

I have found nothing what so ever about the meaning through Duckduckgo

It is some bold issue on my side I am sure.

and RedHat (and derivatives, like CentOS, Oracle Unbreakable Linux,
etc), respectively.

GCC 6 will not build the OpeonOffice suite; however, GCC 5 will
happily build the Apache professional office suite application.

Well, lets see if that can be fixed.


The following recent blog entry may provide insight on my procedure:

[Issue58861] Bugzilla to intimidating ?

2016-10-17 Thread Peter Kovacs
There is this Bug where people request to make it simpler to file a 
Problem...


I dont know. I find it intimidateing to file a bug at all.


Should we close this?

https://bz.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=58861


Or would we keep this as a link to maybe switch to Jira. (I personly 
prefer Jira over Bugzilla. But I think it is a huge effort to switch the 
tracker.)



All the best

Please be aware that there is currently a bug affecting GCC 6.2.0-7 (and up)

< https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=841368 >

The bug may also affect other than kernel builds -- as yesterday
gcc-6.2.0-9 failed 'make' during my build of GRUB2 from git and had to
use gcc 5.x.y

Keep that in mind in your efforts to build OpenOffice 4.1.3

Ahh okay, I understand. Well I guess this is distribution specific.
My distribution files far less open bugs for them.
https://bugs.archlinux.org/?project=1%5B%5D=31=gcc

But they are puting all efforts on doing one thing right, instead 
maintaining different Packages.
So hmm, we will see. I do not think this is a compiler issue, thats only 
related to the compiler.

Compile Problem - invalide ELF headers

2016-10-24 Thread Peter Kovacs

Hello all,


So I found my true problem. which is

LD_LIBRARY_PATH=../lib:../stubdata:../tools/ctestfw:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH 
../bin/icupkg -d ./out/build/icudt40l --list -x \* ./in/icudt40l.dat > 
out/tmp/icudata.lst
../bin/icupkg: error while loading shared libraries: 
/home/legine/workspace/aoo/main/solver/420/unxlngx6.pro/lib/libgcc_s.so.1: 
invalid ELF header


So I made a softlink against my system libgcc_so.1 in /lib and compile 
error was solved. YAY! One step forward!!


so where does the libgcc lib come frome? I assume we copy it, can anyone 
help me and point me to the right build script?


I am on trunc and I had this Issue in icu module so I have a chance in 
understanding the issue behnd the issue ;)



Thanks.

I have downloaded the Original SampleICC-1.3.2 and see if there are some 
difference. But maybe someone else has a better Idea.
Maybe the SampleICC needs an older implementation of Boost? - Not sure. 
1.3.2 is pretty old version...

Hello ,

The given ressource i have no access to.
Can sombody support who has access to the internal Apache stuff and

I would like to have access. How ever I am with you only for roughly one

Talking more then delivering ;) So I am unsure if you trust me enough to 
give me the same.

So I can drive the topic atm further. :)

Note that the current priority (in case this makes any difference) is to
get a valid signature that will be recognized by Gatekeeper. This is
probably a prerequisite for the App Store, but for the App Store we
would probably need further code changes that may come at a later stage.

I don't think it makes a difference at this point. Access to the ASF's
Apple developer account where we have a signing key for production
applications is governed by the same process.

Note you have the option of using the existing ASF-wide ID to sign the
app or creating a specific OpenOffice ID.

Re: recruitment@

2016-10-21 Thread Peter Kovacs
The traffic on development was a barrier for me.
I did not consider recruitment, because I did not see it in the wiki
joining page.
Maybe if the recruitment section on the wiki is more generic and guides the
interested persons there first, it would be used more.
However because I want to develop I had to deal with the load sooner or
later.
Recruitment makes sense if people do not know where to start or what they
want.

Re: Query about Open Office

Hello,

I am sorry. I do not think so.
Does Open Office meet your requirements at all?
Corel Print House comes with an own Grafik designer. Not sure if our
toolset for pictures etc is sufficient for your work.

However I think this could be a nice feature in the future.
Can Corel export to another file format?

Re: Petty and Sad

2016-11-25 Thread Peter Kovacs

Hello Kevin,

Why do you write to us, not ask the users for some opinion? There are so 
many sealots in the past years claiming that Libre Office is the better 
Project.
Also the media has declared Open Office dead. And still people are using 
Open Office.
It is not our fault people like Open Office and not Libre Office. And I 
think the logic if Open Office dissapears people are forced to Libre 
Office is lame and not very open minded.


To me Libre Office is a sister project. I love it like I love my 
sisters. Sometimes realtionship are better sometimes not.
Currently the relation ship is bad. If you want to do something in 
favour of FOSS, please help to enhance the relation ship between the 2 
projects.


We Open Office, I think can say this for all of us devs, have made clear 
that we will not join Libre Office.
However I would welcome any open minded, fair cooperation between both 
projects. In my opinion that was not the case in the past.
Another point I see that will not make you fond of the Idea, is that you 
loose your source of Schadensfreude. You seem to need it.

You are welcome to read our list in the future in order to feel better.

I am very happy with the Open Office Community. I see a great and kind 
and very active user base. And my fellow Dev Community is awesome.
I realy like it here. And I would like to ask you to respect this. Don't 
blame us for people not using your favourite office suite.


Please give them the freedom to use what they want, instead of what you 
want.


All the best
Peter

But I gotta say it's pretty sad and petty to be giving false information to
uninformed people about what their options are instead of using MS Office
or some other proprietary tool. Lot's of these people are poor or
struggling businesses looking to save money to survive. You guys don't
mention LibreOffice out of spite, when it's an obvious solution, or you try
to communicate that the project is doing great instead of addressing the
issues, and I have to say it's pretty petty and also hurts the FOSS
community. Shame on you, really.
