Re: [board-discuss] Enable TDF to contribute more code to LibreOffice with in-house developers to address our donors specific needs
Thanks for making it clearer. I'd like to imagine LibreOffice with myriads of code contributors and no users. Better not. Fact: users donate. Currently donation is not tied to any TDF obligation, it is an expression of satisfaction or good will. Donation is a also pain that users go thru in spending time and money to express their satisfaction. One cent in donation is a manifest of satisfaction on LibreOffice. It sums to ~1M yearly of users satisfaction. Other users express their happiness translating, adding linguistic stuff, documenting and building culture in askbot, telegram channels and regional meetings. I wonder who is actually listening to users.

So, everyone and everything being an important piece in the mosaic for the big picture for a FLOSS office suite, called LibreOffice. Perhaps trivial, but it is just as easy to constructively get behind these TDF objectives instead of getting lost in the details, treading water and getting nowhere.

Re: [board-discuss] Re: [tdf-members] Discussion about options available with marketing plan draft and timetable
On a upside-down view, my proposal is to have a LibreOffice "as-is" for download from TDF website as Download LibreOffice from Collabora (and have C'bra brand/splash) Download LibreOffice from CIB (and have CIB brand/splash) 2 packages, gratis, open source, same software, no fancy edition, no enterprise chevrons. User choose (click for d/l) what looks better for him. If that doesn't solve the income issues of the ecosystem, it nevertheless brings the ecosystem companies in front of the user. A "ad-sense-like" splash display on each time user starts the software.

Re: [tdf-discuss] New Tutorials website
Hello Dave No offense intended. So it is not a business proposal. Fine. The foundation do business when it find suitable for its mission and business is controlled by the Board. On the "Free" on the very top of the page, I missed it, even after clicking on every menu entry. We have just launched a documentation website that is getting quite amount of traffic from the Help menu of LibreOffice 5.3. It may be interesting to add the tutorial as option to the site visitor. Calls from other pages of our websites are also to be considered. As we agree, we want to build synergies. The documentation website is http://documentation.libreoffice.org . It was designed to let user quickly get documents, no cumbersome reading. It works, half of the visits ends in a download. Having the adequate call for the tutorials, makes the offer richer. Now that I had a glimpse on the OpenOffice.org tutorial, I retain an important asset which is the curriculum of the lessons. It can be the ground base of a richer user experience if one add multimedia, such as videos or screencasts.

Hi Dave Interesting proposal. There is always the willing to build-up synergies. What I see in the page is a mockup, right? I can't seem to be able to evaluate one of the tutorials or navigate beyond the homepage. But I have a question (couldn't catch it so far): is this a simple non-for-profit collaboration (e.g. the tutorials are for free) or a business proposal that involves the Foundation?

Re: [board-discuss] hiring Christian Lohmaier
+1 Olivier Hallot The Document Foundation Em 10/06/2013 13:15, Florian Effenberger flo...@documentfoundation.org escreveu: Dear community, in its last private meeting, the board of directors has made a decision I would like to share with you today. We decided to offer Christian Lohmaier a work contract, for a limited period of one year, part-time with 20 hours per week, specifically for web development. This involves developing, enhancing and bug fixing our web applications, like our CMS system, and like the new download page. Given TDF runs more and more applications that are critical, and has very special requirements e.g. in terms of localization and scaleability, which are not always met by the upstream products we run, several community members have proposed paying someone with development skills - especially in PHP, Python, Perl, C, C++, Java - to implement those requests. After careful research, the board has come to the decision that hiring Christian Lohmaier on a part-time, time-limited basis specifically for these development tasks is the most economical solution, and will provide huge benefits to the wider community. Code produced will, wherever possible, be also filed upstream, to the benefit of the open source products we use. Christian has been around for many years, contributing a lot especially to our web applications, and the board is looking forward to have a fixed amount of his time in the future. The total costs for TDF, including dues employer, translate to approximately 25.000 € per year. After the contract has been drafted now and sent to the board in private, I hereby ask the board to 1. vote on hiring Christian Lohmaier, for a limited period of one year, part-time with 20 hours per week, specifically for web development, at costs not exceeding 25.000 € per year, 2. authorize Thorsten Behrens and me to sign the work contract on behalf of TDF Looking forward to working with Christian!

Re: [tdf-discuss] Marketing material suggestion: Why LibreOffice?
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hi, Believe me, as a emerging country point of view, one of the strongest point of Microsoft Office is because it is... outrageously expensive! But they will never write that. Hard to admit, but many decision makers love big checks. Is is a macho behavior. Cheap is for sissies (and I let you guess what happens when big money is on the table). So, all FUD around feature A or B missing in suite C or D is a smoke screen for a CIO that cannot fight the MS lobby (especially in Public sector). For example, they have to explain why a lot of enterprises have Lotus Notes instead of MS Exchange and why these entreprises aren't doomed because their mail does not work with Office Outlook. Just to remind, pivot tables are used by less than 0,01% of the user base. Technical issues are the easiest to fix (when money is there, of course) And collaborative tools are being addressed in LibreOffice with the CMIS implementations undergoing, including Sharepoint access. Let's see V4.0 of LibreOffice. Anyway, I am happy to see such pamphlets sprouting and LibreOffice name inside... It shows we are inconvenient to them. It also shows they need to care of their cash-cow harder than before. Happy 2013!

This productivity package includes Writer, word processing and editing of web pages, Calc (Spreadsheet), creating and editing spreadsheets, Impress, creating and editing multimedia presentations, Draw, creating and editing drawings, diagrams and graphs , Base (Database), creating and editing Databases and Math (Equation Editor). With this change to a Free Software, besides the lack of a financial burden due to the inexistence of licensing (Free Software), this City Hall has adopted open standards in accordance with Law 36/2011 of 21 June. It has also started the standardization and universality of digital formats in the files used by the City Hall and its residents. This type of software enables the use of a variety of operating systems for use of various tools, it has been adopted internationally with very positive and encouraging results, it has the ability to import / export various proprietary formats (Word files, Excel, Powerpoint, Outlook, etc.) and establishes the native creation of PDF files. Other interesting feature of the software is to be fully in Portuguese and have writing tools also in Portuguese.

[steering-discuss] Candidacy for Board of Directors
I thereby announce my candidacy for a Board of Directors seat at the Document Foundation My name is Olivier Hallot, I am a 53 old electronic engineer living in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. I am a former researcher and executive of IBM and Oracle. I am involved with open source software since 2001, where I started working into the translation of OpenOffice.org for Brazilian Portuguese. I am a former member of the OpenOffice.org Community Council and founder of The Document Foundation, as well as a member of the Steering Committee. Today I am working as consultant in a large LibreOffice deployment project in a Brazilian enterprise and I am advising several LibreOffice projects and initiatives in Brazil. My Document Foundation resumé Since early 2010 I got involved into the design and birth of the Document Foundation and I became member of the Steering Committee since the beginning. During the last 12 month I have been participating into the decisions of the SC and I worked to allocate as much Brazilian resources as I could to TDF. I still hold the position of translator for Brazilian Portuguese (a market place well above one million users) and I have contributed into several bug reports and features lists necessary for large enterprise deployments. I also did some bug fixing directly into the code, less than I would like to, but time is short and the matter is complex. I have used my professional connections to leverage LibreOffice and TDF in many public companies and in government and I am actively pursuing the goal to increase the number of contributors to LO development. Why am I applying for the BoD? After one year of existence, the enormous amount of TDF members energy and sharp professionalism lead us to great achievements. We rock. The road ahead however seems to be another challenge for the Foundation: Secure the positions already obtained and move to address the needs of the multiple faces of the community, from individuals to enterprises, while understanding the marketplaces forces that will drive TDF ahead. Of great importance, it will be necessary to design and implement the correct business model for the Foundation sustainability and LibreOffice evolution. These are fields I am willing to contribute with my industry experience, connections and personal energy. I am available for further questions.

Well, lets put this way... Every aging file, non-ISO standard file format, should consider a format facelift.

Re: [steering-discuss] Proposal: how to use the GSoC money
Hi Thorsten, All... Em 17-08-2011 11:09, Thorsten Behrens escreveu: Hi there, with GSoC 2011 nearing its end, it's the time of invoicing Google for the organisation money donations, and the mentor summit travel reimbursements. Since we're an accepted SPI subproject, it's easiest to route the money that way (SPI is a registered vendor at Google). There are a few nice conventions on how to spend this money, and I'd like to make the formal proposal to keep them also here with TDF: * google pays travel for two gsoc mentors, to attend the mentor summit in october. conventionally, the org admins go there, mingle with the other orgs' admins, and conspire to make GSoC even better next year. note that this part of the google donation is earmarked for specifically this travel (google wants to see ticket invoices separately) * google pays $500 per student to the mentoring organizations; in past years, we've used that money (in part) to pay travel stipends for successful students, to attend the conference. Proposal: * accept GSoC money through SPI +1 * reimburse Fridrich and Cedric for their travel to the mentor summit +1 * offer travel stipends to successful students, for the LibOCon +1 * cap above expenses at $5000 (the amount we receive from Google) - or slightly less, does SPI charge us something for handling the money?

As we had no quorum in the call, I'd ask every SC member / deputy to vote on the statement we agreed in the call. The statement is: It is noted that several members of the SC acknowledge the existence of a legal risk to display screenshots of LibreOffice on Windows, but the risk is deemed low, therefore, while screenshots on GNU/Linux should be the default ones, screenshots on Windows are also possible.

Hi 1) +1 2) +1 regards Olivier 2011/7/18 André Schnabel andre.schna...@gmx.net Hi, this topic has already been discussed here at the list and briefly in our last SC call. But there is no formal decision yet.

My proposal to add David Emmerich Jourdain did not get consensus (while the other two items seemd to have this) - so I'd skipp this part for now. Please also note, that this changes would be temporary, as we will have to re-elect the MC soon after BoD-elections. So I'd ask each SC member / deputy to vote on following two items: 1. approve all current deputies of the MC as full MC members. (so the MC will have 5 members in total - Sophie Gautier, Fridrich Strba, André Schnabel, Thorsten Behrens, Cor Nouws ) 2. approve that the MC should decide on applications in consensus with a needed quorum of 2/3rd (means currently 4 members).

Re: [steering-discuss] proposed bylaws changes
Hi Florian +1 for the 4 changes. Regards, Olivier 2011/6/9 Florian Effenberger flo...@documentfoundation.org Hello, as we are moving forward with legally setting up the foundation, and translate/adapt the bylaws into German, we noticed that some tweaks and simplifications are required - in general we feel the shorter these documents are, the better it is for understanding. Proposed change #1: --- We should replace the words moral commitment (which are rather off-putting to many with a stark view of their integrity and morals) with something softer: from: Every membership applicant must have been active for at least three (3) months, and should make a moral commitment to at least six (6) months activity (not counting the first three (3) months of fulfillment of qualification). to: Every membership applicant must have been active for at least three (3) months, and should make a best effort commitment to continuing their activity for a further six (6) months. Which I hope captures the spirit, without invoking things that cannot be predicted. Proposed change #2: --- Then a separate set of changes cleanups around the Advisory Board: * The /Donor/ definition is not referenced outside of the /Sponsor/ definition, and so should be collapsed into there. * The /Sponsor/ definition is referenced in a redundant, non-normative way by the Members/Contributors definition and should be removed. from: The Community's Members are people who contribute their time, efforts and skills independently (individual persons contributing on either a paid or unpaid basis), or who may work for Sponsors (refer to definition of Sponsors). to: The Community's Members are individuals who contribute their time, efforts and skills whether on a paid or voluntary basis. Proposed change #3: --- * Remove the Sponsors section. This is now only referred to in the Advisory Board definition and sections, and as such can be expanded there. * Expand the Advisory Board definition. from: The Advisory Board represents the Foundation's Sponsors. Each Sponsor is entitled to appoint one representative. For more information, see Advisory Board under Governance. to: The Advisory Board provides a forum for organisations that provide a substantial minimum level of financial, or other support as determined by the BoD to meet with the BoD and provide advice. For more information, see Advisory Board under Governance. Proposed change #4: --- * Re-work the Advisory Board section: from: The Advisory Board [AB] is staffed by Sponsors' representatives (refer to definition of Sponsors). Each Sponsor can have no more than one representative on the Advisory Board. Each Sponsor's representative is appointed for a term of one (1) year, but can be re-appointed for a further year in office at the end of each term. The AB's primary function is to represent The Document Foundation's Sponsors, and to provide the Board of Directors with advice, guidance and proposals. to: The Advisory Board [AB] is staffed, at the BoD's discretion by organisations that have made a substantial contribution to The Document Foundation. Each organisation appointing a single representative to the Advisory Board based on a yearly fee to be determined by the BoD. The AB's primary function is to represent these organisations by providing the BoD with advice, guidance and proposals. Thoughts?

This is a change management project, and you can put it entirely into a PMBOK vanilla change management project. That does not means it will be easy to execute. Vendor lock-in thru specific proprietary extensions in migration projects is the holy grail of all users that hate the idea of loosing their beloved old and costly proprietary suite. If you fix this, they will cut their wrists and bleed to death. Beware! :-) You may publish tons of recomendations in a workgroup for this purpose, it will not avoid the need of a high qualified consultancy in migration.

Nothing you can do about it I'm afraid Yes you can do something about it. Don't enable writing in that format. Use PDF's for communicating. If a MS user needs to be able to modify a document, use .doc format. There is no need to use .docx format. MS Office 2008 and 2011 can still read .doc files. The thing is, *you can* prevent LibreOffice/OOo from writing in proprietary format. This requires a configuration in one of the xcu/xcs config files.

Re: [tdf-discuss] Re: Non-removable extensions
Hello Michael PLease consider removing all these undesired dictionaries and extensions. Actually, I agree with OOo project where we should keep LO as lean as possible and offload collateral delevelopments to extensions, which by the way is a very nice feature. Now with no intent to spark flames, I am concerned in distributing LO to a corporation as large as 120K desktops. Every single useless extension is a source of concern for failure, doubts and support costs. 120.000 small annoyances is a huge problem, believe me. So I beg to remove them. All of them. I need to have LO focused in my locale, with only one or two upgradeable extensions (dicts, grammar checker) that I can manage for 120.000 users. The corporation I work for only allows extensions under strict business need. Thank you very much indeed.

If there are bugs that make these unususable, or particularly problematic - then, we should fix those instead IMHO. ie. can we fix the bug in the right place ?

Re: [steering-discuss] Updated draft of the Community Bylaws
Hi Some thoughts and questions from my personal experience: 1) I am a bit concerned of the definition of project: It looks like TDF will foster several software projects, which is fine for me, but then (may be I am a bit biased by OOo structure), how do we manage NLC, L10n, Marketing and other projects? Does software development include all these activities? 2) I really appreciate *oxygenation*. Letting a chairman ad aeternam in place is a source of trouble and will let him build strong and unbreakable ties with the BoD, the employees and selected sectarian members of the Foundation (the goodfellas), aiming to preserve his status and position and offering whatever is needed to keep support on him. A one or two year term with one further nominaton will ensure fresh air (sort of) to the TDF Chairmanship. The leaving chairman can be reconducted later, but only after another one took his place for at least xxx month. Oxygenation also improves governance and transparency. 3) About disputes: It seems that the disputes will be settled inside TDF by the BoD, then the Chairman. Question: Is it advisable, for the sake of transparency, to let the members decide as the upper instance? 4) On conflict of interest, I personnaly prefer 20% figure instead of 30%. 5) Should any member of the Membership Committee (MC) have a veto power? 5a) Oh, by the way, what is the decision process of the MC with respect to the aplication? votes by simple majority, 2/3 members, 4/5? 6) How many members will take place in the MC and how are they appointed, for how long, how often they meet? Are we going to allow memebers of the BoD, AB, and the Chariman to be in the MC? 7) If a Member stops contributing, such that the merit criteria are no longer met, membership status will be revoked after a certain period of time. Does it means that a founding member of the TDF will be revoked if he/she does not participate on a xxx period of time? Shall we give them a honorary membership (dangerous).

Re: [steering-discuss] Fwd: Re: LibO Drupal site
Hi all I am not a CMS expert, just frequent visitor of some Drupal sites, and maybe SilverStripe as well but I did't noticed it. Anyway, I have no problems to give appropriate credits and visibility to those experts who help us. I just want a more long range vision of this partnership. What comes to my mind is CMS maintenance and upgrades. As an exampple, BrOffice.org is stuck in old version of Drupal and to revamp/upgrade it costs us a lot in terms of energy and time, and we are on hold on that issue. Can our Drupal friends address continuity somehow? Olivier Em 09-11-2010 08:52, Florian Effenberger escreveu: Forwarding in agreement with James to this public list What are your thoughts on this?

Now that the SC has come to a decision (a SilverStripe site will be created and later a Drupal site will be created and data from the SilverStripe will be migrated to the Drupal site), I thought it would be a good time to re-affirm our desire to create the LibO Drupal Website Team. So, are you still committed to help run a Drupal site? We can just start with a show of hands and then move on. Ben (Benjamin Horst) is working on a permanent Drupal site and he could maybe chime in with a reply as to what he considers as important first steps to raising a Drupal site. I have in the meantime, to stem the questions about the ability of the Drupal site to perform some of the conditions of a LibO site, I have created a LibO Drupal test site here: http://www.parEntreprise.ca . I can give you admin and ftp permissions if you need it for the test site. User logins are: LibO1; LibO2; LibO3; LibO4; LibO5. Please note that the login/pswrd are the same for each user account (example login for LibO1 pswrd: LibO1). Note that once we have a formal team, we could create a forum on the official LibO Drupal site to discuss issues etc. If we are going to create it then let's use it for real-life experience. Hope to hear from you soon. Many thanks for your support, Marc -- Marc Paré http://www.parEntreprise.com Hi Jim: Sorry, I can't speak for the TDF and cannot say if they would agree to these terms.
