Hi Everyone,

files.

My accepted patches for LibreOffice until now :
https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/#/q/Irem

Before GSOC working, I was working on
" tdf#46279  Show restart message after extension installation" non-trivial
bug and I sent patches for this bug.
Now I'm working on adding Styles part to Table format dialog in Writer. If
you suggest something else, I can work on that. Thank you for your time and
I look forward to hearing from you.

Best Regards.

Welcome

As you surely have seen we require you have solved a difficult easyHacks in 
order to be aproved, you can find our step by step guide here:
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/GetInvolved
The patch you point to is a very simple patch.

We have a few ideas, where there are currently no named mentor but I am pretty 
sure the UX team can guide you.

Chris@ even though a bit late, could you please formulate your idea with a

Interested in contributing to Libreoffice : GSoC 2016

[Akshay Deep]

Hello everyone,
 I'm currently studying as an undergraduate student at Indian Institute
of Technology, Roorkee. I am interested in applying in two GSoC projects
this year: Template Manager and Table Styles. Most of my contributions have
been in UI/UX related bugs.

Here is the link to all my submitted patches to gerrit:
https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/#/q/Akshay

Also, some of my contribution have been mentioned in the release notes :)

https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleaseNotes/5.2#Selection_Filter_in_Cross_Reference_Tab
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleaseNotes/5.2#JVM_Start_Parameters

I'm in touch with the mentors of both these projects and looking forward to
submit a proposal on these projects.

Contact Info: E-mail:  akshaydeepi...@gmail.com   IRC: akki / akki_

[Dipankar Niranjan]

Hello Everyone,

I am Dipankar Niranjan, a sophomore student studying Computer Science and
Engineering at IIIT - H in India.
I'm interested in the idea "Template Manager"  for GSoC 2016.
I do hope that no one has expressed interest in this idea as of now, as I'm
really interested in contributing to this. :D
As of now, I couldn't see any specific person assigned to this idea as a
mentor.
The mentor was specified as UX Team.
May I please know with whom I have to get in touch to discuss this idea
further..?
I would like to get in touch with him and discuss ideas and possibilities
as this project has huge scope and the current implementation leaves much
to be desired.

Here is a list of patches that have been merged with master:

https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/#/q/owner:dipankar1995%2540gmail.com+status:merged
https://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/commit/?id=0e41527fd52f676ff6240a08b3fe25607c1ca726

I look forward to hearing from you.

Welcome aboard Yeliz :-)

As it turns out, I’ve got an idea I’ve been toying with for ages, so I might as 
well put it out there. 

One of the issues with the VCL module as it currently stands is that the 
OutputDevice class is pretty massive. I would be good to be able to make a 
compilation firewall for this class, and at the same time split up the 
functionality into seperate classes. 

Some time ago I rearranged the OutputDevice source files into a more logical 
structure - they can be found here:

http://opengrok.libreoffice.org/xref/core/vcl/source/outdev/

My idea was that all these cxx files now logically group related functionality 
and could be converted into “Helper” classes, and we reference these as private 
member variables using a pImpl pattern. Public functions (that are indeed truly 
public) are then forwarded to the Helper classes. 

The advantages are mainly in compilation time and code flexibility, but also 
any of the other advantages to setting up a compilation firewall would apply 
also. 

If you’ve never heard of a Compilation Firewall, the description of my idea 
above is essentially what it achieves. However, I *really* recommend reading 
Herb Suttor’s article on the technique here:

http://herbsutter.com/gotw/_100/ 

Perhaps I should log an easy hack. 

Anyway, that would be something I think could be done - it’s a reasonable 
difficultly level, but not too difficult for someone who knows C++. I would 
really love to see unit tests of the helper classes, which would really help 
make the code robust. 

If someone else wants to chime in here, please feel free :-) However, I’m happy 
to chat on IRC - come to #libreoffice-dev on freenode; my nick is chris_wot

Hi Everyone,

I'm interested in "Rework of the Tools -> Customization... dialog" project
for GSOC. I read this explanation:
http://user-prompt.com/de/how-to-make-libreoffice-customization-usable/

My accepted patches for LibreOffice until now:
https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/#/q/aybuke

I set up development environment with Glade and read pages[1,2,3]

As a beginning I thought of adding search functionality to Menu -> Add ->
Add Command window. But if you suggest something else, i can work on that
of course.

[Alex P]

Hello,

I am a third year Informatics/Computer Science student looking forward to
contribute to Libre Office during GSoC. I have experience in desktop
(Windows, Linux) and web development. C, C++, Java, .NET, PHP, Python, JS,
...

I live in Europe, UTC+2.
My native language is Russian, but I think there should not be any problems
with communicating in English.

I do not have much code to show but here is my github profile with some
projects https://github.com/AlexP11223?tab=repositories
Also during GCI 2011 I was working on setmime
http://cgit.haiku-os.org/haiku/tree/src/bin/setmime.cpp and writembr
http://cgit.haiku-os.org/haiku/commit/?id=1a7322a09e825d2445ca88a47cd1d5cd06d3811b
tools in Haiku OS.

So far I submited patches/working on these EasyHack bugs:
https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=65219
https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=98264
https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=93548
https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=96505

https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/#/q/owner:%22alex.pan...@gmail.com%22

I understand that these are small and easy bugs, but I just started working
with LibreOffice code a week ago, so I think it is a good starting point
for learning this project.

I looked at the GSoC ideas, I am interested in "Refactor god objects" or
"Implement Zoner Draw import filter" (I was also thinking about "More and
better tests" but as I know someone already wants to take it). I would like
to get some suggestions about how should I start working on it.
