Yes. And note that even that publication can be scheduled from within

 For sure. But the initial idea was to keep it oriented to developers
 as much possible. Although I'm not against to broaden the audience. If
 you have interesting content I'm not aware of, you can let me know and
 I will gonna integrate it.
 
 At first, I thought that
 - - using pull requests on Github
 - - and sending content via email for those who don't use Github
 would be a great idea.
 
 After a discussion on #libreoffice-fr, I realised that a Wiki page for
 each LOWN is a great solution.
 
 yup; perhaps even an official blog platform. What do you think?

FWIW, there is:

 http://sourceforge.net/projects/latex2wp/

which might be quite helpful for this task.

Best,

Thanks for the hint; but we still need to define if we will use a blog

I don't like the Wordpress idea: more difficult to make LOWN a
community project, and to see the commits made to the article.
AFAIK LibreOffice infrastructure doesn't have a Wordpress instance.

I found a latex to wiki converter: pandoc. It is actually a swiss-army

Hello William,

Sorry for not having come back to you sooner. My comments inline...

Thanks for the hint; but we still need to define if we will use a blog
or the Wiki.


I will open an issue on RedMine soon but let's discuss here what it is 
that we want in terms of needs.

What I see (feel free to add to it, of course!):

* one actual newsletter sent to specific lists on the projects 
(projects@ marketing@ + dev@): this is the standard, text only 
newsletter.
* another one -same content, different looks- that's published for the 
outside world to see. No one will look for it on the wiki so we need a 
blog platform, a webpage on the site, or something visually pleasing and 
easily searchable and retrievable, like www.libreoffice.org/newsletter 
or somesuch.
* one platform that's in the form of lxer; somewhat more technical than 
the newsletter and slightly more focused. To me this last need is 
perhaps more important than the two others as it encompasses them, but 
it is also the more demanding in terms of resources and skills. The 
audience is really the community of LibreOffice and more specifically 
people who contribute to the project. Meaning, people who will find the 
content to be either downright informative (I just didn't know that but 
now it makes sense) or at least providing helpful background (beta 1 
comes in two weeks, where do we stand with regard to our localization 
project?)







I don't like the Wordpress idea: more difficult to make LOWN a
community project, and to see the commits made to the article.
AFAIK LibreOffice infrastructure doesn't have a Wordpress instance.

knife according to the description[1].



Once I've written my comments above I realize that you focused more on 
the content production. :-)
I believe we should make it easy for people to contribute content, 
therefore latex, vim, emacs (I use emacs) are effective tools but keep 
in mind only a short portion of us here use them.


My guess would be to use a dedicated space on the wiki for content 
production. It is collaborative enough and can be reused in different 
formats (webpage, newsletter, feeds, etc.)


What do you think?

Best,

Charles.

Ok for the wiki. Regarding the reference extension we talked about[1].
It is available with the Cite extension which is ALREADY installed
on our Wiki instance[2]. ;-) Thanks Sophi for the hint.

On my side, I would still be able to use LaTeX since I've found an
extension to convert LaTeX to MediaWiki syntax: pandoc[3] or another I
still need to test which consists of using Vim directly from the Wiki
[4];-)

Regarding the 3 different interfaces, I'm not an expert regarding CMS.
(Didn't know what lxer was about, now I know ;-) )
But Pandoc could still come in handy this time, use whatever CMS you
want and we will still be able to convert the syntax.
Let's reuse the existent, no need to create a WordPress instance if
the TDF hasn't one already; is Plone not able to handle such a use case?
Or maybe, we could reuse the TDF blog [5]?

There's got to be the same for emacs to mediawiki somewhere. This being 
said, the sad part is that we do have an old OOo extension converting 
ODF documents to mediawiki, but it has not been maintained and is thus 
quite buggy.

Well the TDF blog does use Wordpress, the website uses SilverStripe, the 
extensions site uses Plone, and we may end up with an OpenSuse like 
system for the planet, which, incidently might just be what we're 
looking for at least for the lxer style platform 
(https://redmine.documentfoundation.org/issues/400)


This being said, there could be other options but we have to at least 
list our needs first.

As I understand correctly, Planet is just a blog aggregator and cannot
be used as a host for LOWN.

 
 This being said, there could be other options but we have to at
 least list our needs first.

As you said, we have to provide 2 LOWN versions: a web one and a text
based for the MLs.

Let's thus define our needs by considering this situation:

- - We use the wiki where we will put our full web version: allowing
contribution from the whole community.

My question: Where are we gonna upload the images/screenshots (if any
article needs illustration?): on Owncloud or on the wiki itself? This
could have issues for next steps.

- - Use a cron to export the web version each week from the wiki to the
TDF Wordpress.

Do we need to use absolute links to the images (hosted on Owncloud or
the wiki itself?) or do we need to reupload the images on the
wordpress instance?

Maybe I could have a look how to implement such a cron using PHP with
MediaWiki [1] and WordPress [2].

- - Use a cron to extract the text version from the wiki and post it on
the mailing list.

Yes indeed. I'm just wondering whether we could tweak this a bit with 
successive posts and links on separate topics. Tagging and separate 
topics might just fit within such a platform.

We keep this easy I think; Wordpress if we use wordpress, another 
backend if we use another. Note that I'm unsure whether Wordpress is the 
best solution here. I don't have something specific in mind, so feel 
free to suggest something else.





- - Use a cron to export the web version each week from the wiki to the

hold on there, I only trust a wordpress post once I've taken a look at 
the post about to be published and how it fits visually within the page, 
so no cron job for me :-)





Do we need to use absolute links to the images (hosted on Owncloud or
the wiki itself?) or do we need to reupload the images on the

see my answer above.

yes the cron job here would indeed be very useful.

Thanks!

Hi Charles, *

First, thanks you all for your feedback, I'm really pleased ;-)

On 06/14/2014 09:43 AM, Charles-H. Schulz wrote:

- could you describe how you select content?

Actually, as I'm subscribed to all ML lists, I take the time to read
all what I find interesting on ML and Bugzilla.

The subjects I find interesting are:
- - the rather long threads on ML: having a brief summary of the 
current

situation of the discussion is always great;
- - the most recurrent subjects;
- - subject difficult to understand;
- - controversial topics;
- - first contributions;
- - progress on the hackfest organization.



nice, I like your approach!




- you can make it attractive if we give you a few logos, but surely
you need acccess to our wiki or some sort of official blog for
this... interested?

I want to keep the document as clean as possible, and will include
only additional content needed for the comprehension of the article
like X/Y graphics, modified feature in the GUI, etc.


So I'm thinking about putting this newsletter online, meaning, on a wiki 
or on a blog post; then ensuring it can be spread via mailing list (text 
only) so we'll have to work on the style itself, although most of it can 
be improved by the choice of the right online platform. A text only 
solution is not only useful but can co-exist; it's all about 
refactoring the message.




Publishing a PDF document via Twitter wasn't clearly the ideal format
to use. Making LOWN official would be nice, indeed.


I think we should do this, probably by adding a bit more content though. 
See below.




Sorry for having used LaTeX, I know from a marketing POV it isn't
great. But what I wanted was:
- - be allowed to use Vim: I don't like to use a GUI for writing: it is
distracting and hurting my eyes.
- - have an auto-citation system;
- - see the changes made between 2 commits.



What the hell are you doing contributing to Libreoffice then? :p



LaTeX and Github were answering these problem quite nicely. As Git is
used more effectively on text-based files, I needed a text based tool
like markdown or LaTeX. I dropped markdown since it has not citation
system. The remaining defacto solution was the LaTeX.



More seriously: use whatever tool you like, just don't think of it as a 
document but as a webpage. Better use txt + html. Again,, we want to 
have this online, not as a document or just as a text.





- again, thank you for all this I like the breadth and quality of
content. Let's make this a collaborative effort.

For sure. But the initial idea was to keep it oriented to developers
as much possible. Although I'm not against to broaden the audience. If
you have interesting content I'm not aware of, you can let me know and
I will gonna integrate it.

At first, I thought that
- - using pull requests on Github
- - and sending content via email for those who don't use Github
would be a great idea.

After a discussion on #libreoffice-fr, I realised that a Wiki page for
each LOWN is a great solution.


yup; perhaps even an official blog platform. What do you think?



I can still use Vim if I copy paste the changes to the wiki, the
commit are saved and we have block references with [1].


Are you confident in that extension?






- we can see how best to circulate this newsletter and make not
just a tool for the outside, but a means of information for the
entire project.



At this stage, we should improve it on two levels then imho:
-formatting/style/web page
- adding more non-developers topic: native-lang communities, 
localization work matters a lot and I expect this newsletter to be read 
by them as one of our major audiences.


Best,

Charles.

Maybe Will has deleted the pdf?


Nope, the link is till valid and always will be. It's a link to the
document hosted on my Github which is a pdf.

I tested on IE, FF and Chrom(e/ium) and the link is working fine. BUT
according to the tests I made with curl -IL, the pdf is detected as
binary -- can cause problem on some platforms. Cannot fix this, the
mimetype error comes from Github.
