Ciao, Joerg The same holds true for 'scripting', as there is a module with this very name in project 'framework'. This leaves 'addon' as the only candidate: addon.openoffice.org +1 The modules are not visible to the outside world except when you deal with cvs and getting source code from it. As far as I expect the new project is not a coding project but a documentation and content providing project so I think we can bear this name clash. OTOH addon is a bad as scripting because *both* are technical terms that just describe a single aspect of what the project is about. extensions is much better suited for the project: it is a non-technical term and it is understandable by everyone. It describes the project as something about extending OOo by everything that adds functionality to it, be it Add-Ons, Add-Ins, other UNO components or macros, templates etc. Besides that it would be nice to use a name that sounds familiar to developers outside OOo - extensions are well known from the Mozilla project. So +1 for extensions.

Re: [dev] new incubator : Call for Name
my vote for extensions, as the other two words confuse newcomers because of the mentioned reasons (addon is already a certain term in the API, scripting excludes major languages like C++ and Java). 2005/10/26, Laurent Godard [EMAIL PROTECTED]: - addon.openoffice.org (already 1 vote) - extensions.openoffice.org (already 3 votes) - scripting.openoffice.org (already 0 vote) -i leave it in case -- Best Regards Christian Junker - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

We can simply change this source modules if really necessary (i would volunteer if that would make problems). We are searching for a good name for a project independent of any build and environment issues.

[dev] new incubator : Call for Name
Hi all Following the OOoCon, i will setup the new incubtaor project i proposed on my presentation http://marketing.openoffice.org/ooocon2005/presentations/friday_c8.sxi to sumarize, the purpose is not to compete with api project but to help it, puting a bridge from new addons developpers to it. The new incubator project will adresse these points - help new commers to deal with first steps in addon production Help in their naive-lang may be nedded - build generic tools implementing best-pratices for each scripting languages so that a maximum number of addons share the same developping guidelines and same look and feel - provides a browsable repository - provides a tool for users to install in 'one-click' an addon from a list see the presentation for more details The long term goal is to bring OOo usefull features through addon (in whatever language supported) and integrate it in OOo if popular You are all welcommed on board. There is a lot of work to do and not especially hard coding but also translation and new commer welcoming Obviously, some volunteers dealing with basic, python, java, c++ are welcommed to help building the tools (i say, a generic wizard, translation mechanism compatible with OOo translation tools ...) For now, it appears that this incubator needs a new name as it is more than scripting and we need something that identifies all the concerned levels (dev, repository, end-users) Here are the propositions - addon.openoffice.org (already 1 vote) - extensions.openoffice.org (already 3 votes) - scripting.openoffice.org (already 0 vote) -i leave it in case We are actually discussing on the dev@scripting.openoffice.org mailing list. Feel free to join the discussion there I plan to close this discussion on friday and move to the new putTheNameHere.openoffice.org list when up Thanks again and join us Laurent -- Laurent Godard [EMAIL PROTECTED] - Ingénierie OpenOffice.org Indesko http://www.indesko.com Nuxeo CPS http://www.nuxeo.com - http://www.cps-project.org Livre Programmation OpenOffice.org, Eyrolles 2004 - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
