[dev] First Open Source Project

2008-09-16 Thread Matthew Fehskens
Hello -

I've always wanted to be a contributor to an open source project.  I'm a
computer science graduate from Rowan University in Glassboro, NJ, USA and
currently work for a branch of the US government doing data mining while
also being a part-time graduate student at Stevens Institute of Technology
in Hoboken, NJ. I have Python, C/C++ and Java in my programming-language
repertoire, as well as experience with numerous other languages including
Prolog and Lisp.  I have extensive experience with web programming with PHP
and MySQL as well as Javascript on the front-end of things.

I want to contribute as much as possible because I believe OpenOffice.org is
what the world needs:  a free, open-source office suite.  I have used it
since version 1.0 and I would love to see it get as strong a market share as
Microsoft Office currently has on the world.

Thank you very much!

+1 from my part


+1 from my side. I would however appreciate a discussion on my  
proposal on the eligibility of Category leads and more NLC  
representatives (in the Talk section of the charter proposal).


Best,

Hi,

 Original-Nachricht 

Von: Charles-H. Schulz [EMAIL PROTECTED]




That's some progress, but again, where do Category leads fit?  
Product

Development Representative? Can you confirm something about it?


sorry, I obviously neet to prepare an entry page so that we can  
easily

find all information.

As said - all project memebers (including category leads) are  
eligible.
The difference is in the electorate or constituency. Category leads  
are

mentioned for the electorates:
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Community_Council/Items/Election_Process_Proposal#Council_Constituencies


Ah, I had never seen that page. So do you (and others ) confirm that  
according to this council draft that the Category leads of the  
Incubator project can be elected as a product development  
representative and the Category leads of the NLC as a NL  
representative? . Then we have a basis for discussion. I am not  
exactly satisfied with the numbers of NLC represenatives as I wrote  
earlier, but I'll start the conversation on this on [EMAIL PROTECTED]








Well, I don't really agree with that but if in general the NLC does
not see anything wrong with this I won't object...
Do you think we could perhaps discuss this on [EMAIL PROTECTED]


Yes, please. But please try to focus on this special topic.
It is very hard to follow the discussion on 4 or more lists.


Sure. I'll keep it on focus.

best,
Charles.

Re: [dev] help with userpaths for OO 2.4.1

2008-09-16 Thread Oliver Brinzing
Hi,

 so, for my version of OO, can i add a unique path (i want to have
 non-standard templates located in a folder outside of the standard
 tmepaltes)

to add a templates path's you can add a Paths.xcu file to 
.\user\registry\data\org\openoffice\Office

for example:

?xml version=1.0 encoding=UTF-8?
oor:component-data xmlns:oor=http://openoffice.org/2001/registry;
xmlns:xs=http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema; oor:name=Paths 
oor:package=org.openoffice.Office
node oor:name=Paths

node oor:name=Template
prop oor:name=UserPaths
value$(inst)/share/template/$(vlang) 
file:///E:/Share/Templates/value
/prop
prop oor:name=WritePath
valuefile:///E:/User/User_Templates/value
/prop
/node

/node
/oor:component-data


BTW: it's possible you have to add the following node to the Commons.xcu too 
to make it work:

node oor:name=Path
node oor:name=Current
prop oor:name=Template oor:type=oor:string-list
value xsi:nil=true/
/prop
/node
/node

The NLC Category lead might even be elected as CCR or Code Contributor 
Representative. Any project member can candidate for any (but the Sun) seat.
Obviously it would be better to candidate for a seat, if the electorate 
knows you and can confirm that you will be able to act in the name of 
this specific group.
