Re: [libreoffice-documentation] Release 4.2 icon set

2013-12-03 Thread Martin Saffron

Hello,

I don't know what has been discussed previously but I believe LO4.2 will 
introduce a new icon set.  I've read elsewhere that they may be the 
default.  Take a look here:


https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleaseNotes/4.2#GUI

A new set of icons have been included in LibreOffice 4.2, these icons 
named Sifr, where designed to reach the goal of having a beautiful 
non-distracting icons to help the user concentrate on the document. 
(Issa Alkurtas, Norah Abanumay, Mirek M., Pavel Haratický and Ahmad Harthi)


Thanks

Martin

On another point, is the template being changed from the LO3.4 template?.
Again, that was mentioned earlier in the year I think.

John,
Thanks for the nudge about the new template, which I have been working
on and should get to the stage of making available to all. Okay,
that's my priority task for December. I *will* get this done.
Meanwhile, please carry on using the old one.

As for the icon set, yes it probably is time to make the change from
Galaxy to Tango, unless someone knows a good reason why we should not.
(A good reason being something like: the hypothetical situation of the
Design Team seriously considering changing to yet another icon set.
Note: I have no idea if that is under consideration; I haven't been
following design discussions. But might be worth checking if something
dramatic is coming up on the design side.)

Re: [libreoffice-documentation] Translating French Math FAQs

2013-12-03 Thread Glen Reesor

Hi Jean,
I just realized I should have directed my question to someone in 
particular :-). Also, a better wording of my question is below:


The first link I've created for the English Math FAQ is:

[[ How do I put a left bracket without including a right one? | How do I put a 
left bracket without including a right one? ]]


Should I instead use something like this?

[[ Faq/Math/001 | How do I put a left bracket without including a right one? ]]

And then the next one would be Faq/Math/002?

Thanks,

Glen

Is there a standard for what to name new pages in the markup? For example, the 
French markup looks like this:
br
[[FR/FAQ/Math/001 | Comment mettre une parenthèse à gauche sans en mettre une à 
droite ?]]


But I have used the title of the page as the first field in the [[ | ]] markup 
as shown below:


[[ How do I put a left bracket without including a right one? | How do I put a

Is there a preference between the two?

We (FR group) created this numbering in the article links to make it
easier to maintain translation, it's easier to see a number increased
than a new string in another language. So it's up to you to follow it,
but I guess it will be easier also with a number for other groups
translating from English into their own language in the future.

Kind regards

If it's any help, I started working on the Impress FAQs translations
and used the same number approach as the FR team did.

Tango(Automatic) is still the default installation icon set. While it

Re: Fwd: RE: [libreoffice-documentation] I'm not a spammer!

2013-12-03 Thread Glen Reesor

Hello Florian,
I'm not having the problem any more so I can't give you the exact error. 
What I do remember is that I was being throttled because I was doing 
too many  things (I forget the exact word) in a short period of time. It 
then suggested waiting a few minutes.


Thanks for offering your help. Hopefully I will have no problems now :-)

K-J LibreOffice wrote on 2013-12-02 08:07:


I think I know what's happening. I haven't answered a number of the
anti-spam questions correctly, and the time for which I'm blocked is
*really* long.


What's the blocking message? I haven't configured our Captcha so that 
it locks users, at least not on purpose, so I'd like to have a look 
whether that is really the culprit or some other plugin.


The problem is that we have heavy spam problems, being one of the 
largest free software projects. Rather than switching to manual 
account approval, we decided to leave the registration open, but that 
means we have to take some provisions. Just as with e-mail spam 
filtering, they are never 100% perfect, neither in terms of false 
positives nor false negatives. :-(



As for the questions I'm getting wrong, here are some (paraphrasing):
What's the 3 letter acronym for this organization? I typed TDF but that
wasn't correct. Perhaps it's expecting lower case?


TDF in upper case is correct.


What's the street abbreviation without number? I typed Kurfürstendamm.
No idea what the abbreviation would be since I'm not German.


Sorry for that glitch - it indeed contained the old address. The new 
one has a special character (Umlaut) in it, so I completely removed 
that question now.



What's the phone number for TDF? I've tried 609856720 and 30
609856720. My next try will be +49 30 609856720


That sounds about right. :-)


Anyway, long story short, I'd say some of these questions either have
unexpected answers or non-obvious ones for English speakers like me.
Furthermore, being locked out for a day or more seems excessive :-).


Sorry for the bad experience you made, that's definitely not what we 
intend. I have fixed one of the questions, and if you let me know the 
exact error message about locking, I am happy to have a look.


You can also let me know your desired username, then I create the user 
manually for you.
