Re: [Libreoffice-qa] North America Pub Chat
Howdy, I am on CST (*UTC/GMT -5 hours) *and work full time.

If I don't get at least a few responses by Wednesday I' going to call it off (as it's really just not worth it if we don't have minimum of 4 preferably 5-6). It would be really nice to get a North American team consistently contributing as right now Europe dominates the contributor side and IMHO it looks bad for us in North America to be using the product but not contributing something in return as FLOSS software really depends on a community, a give and take relationship. Really 1 hour a month is enough time to give back a bit. Hi, I dont know if I can make it this Friday, but could you also point out the time in UTC too? For a continental european guest a time like 12:00pm EST is ultimately confusing -- is that EST or 2400EST?

Hi, On Thu, Oct 10, 2013 at 05:09:34PM +0100, Michael Meeks wrote: * Bundled extensions (Stephan) So, some extra thoughts / suggestions for that: There are two categories of extensions: 1. Internal extensions. These are built from sources and include presentation-minimizer, nlpsolver, wiki-publisher and mysql-connector-ooo. I think it should be easy to add a GeneratedPackage into the Extension gbuild class that copies the extension root dir from workdir to the right place in instdir. (The .oxt file will still be produced and copied to solver, but I do not think this is worth any more effort. Much better way to spend one's time would be to convert these extensions to optional components.) I will look into this tomorrow. 2. External extensions. These are merely copied to solver from $TARBALL_LOCATION (in extras/Package_extensions.mk). It would be very easy to unpack them and copy them to instdir instead (i.e., what is needed is to create an UnpackedTarball and ExternalPackage for every one of them and change ARCHIVE for FILELIST in scp2). There is 14 of these extensions in extras, plus ct2n which is already repacked during build. If this is agreed upon, I suggest to move the makefiles to a new module, e.g., extensions, as extras is cluttered enough already. This would be very suitable for an easy hack.

Hi Björn Thank you for the update.

Not only for Windows but according to Thomas also for Debian. I know that human resources are scarce and valuable (it just find it amusing when PR starts bragging about the hundreds of devs) but if testing ahead is important then TDF needs to make sure that the tinderboxes (at least those owned by TDF) keep sharing valid binaries ;) Best regards, Pedro -- View this message in context: http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/Libreoffice-qa-ANN-LibreOffice-4-1-2-RC3-test-builds-available-tp4075690p4077575.html Sent from the QA mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ List Name: Libreoffice-qa mailing list Mail address: Libreoffice-qa@lists.freedesktop.org Change settings: http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-qa Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/libreoffice-qa/
