[board-discuss] Budget, final call

2013-03-04 Thread Florian Effenberger

Hello,

we should approve a budget for 2013 this Wednesday. I have now factored 
in all wishes I received into the budget at


https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/File:Tdfbudget2013.pdf
(page 2!)

As said, it is a wishlist at the moment. Please make your comments no 
later than tomorrow, Tuesday, so we have a final document available for 
Wednesday's call. Most likely, we need to cut down several budgets to 
make it fit, but that will be topic for the call.

 The first question would be: what is the license ? I looked in the
 repo on github but did not see any information regarding any licensing
 regime.


Clearly there are some attractions to having uniform licensing / git
 hosting / translation tooling / release process etc. for everything we
 create.

I, to be honest, said nothing about Git repo and translation tooling.
The release process is quite different: Heavy feature between LibO
releases, compatibility problems at beta1 up to the final release.
Translation tooling: As I am using C# I am using (Microsoft's) system
to do all the translation, it would not make too much sense to change
that


It seems as if you have a nice solution in the extensions repository
 though for this already ? is this problem-solved :-)

No, this provides only a installer, which downloads the necessary files via FTP.

Everything works except some people have problems concerning the FTP
server of the free host I am using...

I hope, that you understand, that my only need is a FTP server, so
that everyone can access the program I developed for this
community

All the best,

Michael.

I think the problem that Michael points out is that when we do so, it 
will be an official TDF product, thus it needs to follow TDF's workflow.


I would not be overly strict with this, as e.g. we also support the 
LibreOffice-Box which has quite a different workflow. Plus, personally, 
I'd like to encourage people like Florian to keep up their good work and 
engagement!


However, someone has to check Florian's product and see if it fits into TDF.

Any volunteers within the board to do so?

Hi,

as announced we will have a weekend Impress sprint in Dresden in about
three weeks, which is kindly hosted by the Dresden Technical
University

  https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Marketing/Events/ImpressSprint2013

Our host has a budget for accomodation and travel, and with current
registrations it appears we will not exceed that. Still, to not have
participants being deterred for lack of money, I'd like the board to
approve an extra € 1,000.00 for travel bursaries, only to be used when
host budget has run dry.

Thanks a lot,

So, I have not looked into deep details (and I won't since it is in
C#). but on principle it seems to address a useful problem: helping
people do QA more easily on windows
by helping them having multiple version concurrently... iow allowing
them to test a new version without messing with the stable version
they rely upon.

I would not mind hosting the source repo on gerrit... and then we
could poly host the binary on gimli... neither of them are big.
This is not unprecedented, we are doing that for few 'satellite'
pieces already like cppunit and others...
The difference being mostly hosting 'binaries'... which incurs an
extra layer of 'trust'...

So, my personal opinion is, we should encourage and support such
satellite project, whose main aim is to make thing easier for QA
people on windows... and QA is a very important thing, anything we can
do to get more people involved and productive there is a 'good thing'

Hi Florian,

appears folks are generally happy with that - though we would like to
ask you to move the git repo over to our gerrit (with some more added
benefits ;)).

Also, please add proper license headers to all source files (if you
are the sole author, you are free to do so). The preferred
LibreOffice license is this:

/* -*- Mode: C++; tab-width: 4; indent-tabs-mode: nil; c-basic-offset: 4 -*- */

your sourcecode

/* vim:set shiftwidth=4 softtabstop=4 expandtab: */

(adjust comment style to file type in question, of course).

Beyond that - seems you're doing great stuff there, thanks for all
that work! :)

Cheers,

1/ I need you to register to gerrit.libreoffice.org and send me the
email you used to register (so I can give you proper ACL on the new
repo)
2/ Can you pick a repo name that is not insanely long..
LibreOffice_Server_Installation_GUI  is really too long for confort.
losig.git maybe ?

to give you an idea here are the kind of repo names we have so far

binfilter   
buildbot
core
cppunit
dev-tools
dictionaries
gerrit-etc
help
libcdr
libexttextcat
libmspub
libvisio

[tdf-discuss] Install path for LibreOffice under Windows

2013-03-04 Thread Pedro
Hi all

I just updated my LibreOffice 3.6.5.2 install to 4.0.1.2 under Windows for
the second time.
The first time I used the suggested install path (%ProgramFiles%\LibreOffice
3.6\ and %ProgramFiles%\LibreOffice 4.0\)

I noticed that all the extensions installed as shared (i.e. for All Users)
were left behind in the %ProgramFiles%\LibreOffice 3.6 folder. So I had to
manually delete the folder (because there is no way to uninstall the
leftovers otherwise) and had to reinstall again under LO 4.0

Because I was testing for items not imported in the user Profile
(https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=57061) I decided to give it
another go and start from zero.

So I installed LO 3.6.5.2 in folder %ProgramFiles%\LibreOffice\ added all
the extensions, changed all settings to my preferences and then updated to
4.0

In addition to finding that profile migration (albeit not perfect) is much
better now, all my extensions were correctly working.

So my question is: is there any reason that LibreOffice under Windows does
not install to \LibreOffice\?

Under Windows a single version is associated with the registry keys and with
the odf files, so the installer removes the previous version before
installing a new one. I can see no advantage in installing to a version
named folder under Windows...

If there is no particular reason, then the future LibreOffice 4.0.2 (a month
from now) could be a changing point and install to \LibreOffice\ and be the
last version where these problems occur...

Then when Version 4.1 is out (somewhere in July) this problem would already
be solved (hopefully forever :) ).

Just another 2 cents ;)
Pedro
