Thanks Erich, Christian

The areas I can possibly help with would be Server Maintenance, Site
maintenance(php,html,css) and Bug triage(QA).  I am familiar with Graphics
but its not something I really enjoy doing. I have not used silverstrip but
I downloaded it and will be reviewing their code. I mostly code using the
Code Igniter . Helping with documentation could be a option also.

Let me know your thoughts.

[libreoffice-website] Shuffler

2011-11-09 Thread Michael Bauer
Different question. I'm trying to get the shuffler to work on gd 
(currently frozen). I've looked at the Photo Shuffler tab but I can't 
figure which directory the shuffler draws it's images from on the 
English site and there's quite a few to choose from.


Cheers

Michael

Re: [libreoffice-website] An Observation

2011-11-09 Thread Michael Bauer

Hello again,


I.e. nl-sites just use the english structure as a guide for their own
content, in effect many nl-projects do end up in "just" translating
the english site, also your proposal strongly suggests that.
Well, I can see the good thing about the flexibility. In my case, not 
being good at html and pressed for time, I did use the English site 
mercilessly as a cribsheet. You were right in the sense that once you 
get the hang of it, it's not hard. But the very first time you're dumped 
in the silverstripe main screen is a bit... scary. For one thing I was 
half worried I'd break the English site if I hit the wrong button.


What might be good would be a couple of skeleton templates for new/small 
locales with lots of





stuff just to get you over the first hurdle.


However: How would you put the nl-project's pages in the face of
visitors? Just redirecting to.libreoffice.org won't do - as many
are still in heavy constructions, only have a tiny fraction of the
content available on the english site, and people were against putting
a list of locales in the header/footer for similar reasons.
Well... if it was easier to navigate between the English site and other 
locales, having an automatic redirect wouldn't be so much of a problem. 
Anyway, even without the redirect, I can't see what the issue would be 
with a Wikipedia style language bar on the left or right which allows 
you to navigate between languages if corresponding pages exist. People 
seem to cope very well with different Wikipedias offering different 
amounts of info depending on the language; I don't see what this should 
be different.


I'm afraid I don't have anything more "concrete" to propose but I didn't 
just want to mutter darkly to myself to find out years later that it was 
just some simple oversight :)


Best

Michael

hmm, it's the solution to named problem.
* Try to locate that script (top, /proc//fd ...).
* Try to manually convert the SVG to a PNG and see what happens


I tried to fix it, but I have no root privileges anymore and my password

Erm... we didn't revoke anything. :-) Does SSH login with your key still

SSH login works, but my password was not accepted.

Hard to tell as you don't specify what your "area of expertise"
is/what you would like to work on.

But currently we're looking for someone to implement the downloadpage
proposal into html+css so it can be added to silverstripe.

See the mockups here:
http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Design/Whiteboards/Download_Page

For this, you'd know html and css.

If you're more the graphics type of person and would like to create
something like a webbanner, we could use one that promotes the various
native-lang sites.

If you're more confident with working with words, then feel free to
suggest any additional page you want, don't be shy to point to any
errors or missing information.

If you know php, then one could work in extending the CMS to make it
more comfortable for the native-lang admins. What they keep requesting
(and where I always reply that I'm going to add it - sorry for still
not bringing my ass up to it) would be a way for them to at least see
the list of members on their subsite (and then as extension of that to
be able to add members themselves, instead of having to post here and
have site-admins add them). (we use silverstripe as CMS, so if you're
willing to dig into creating this management view, then you're more
than welcome)

Another php and page-templated related item is to add the possibility
for the NL-sites to include their own twitter and planet feeds on the
homepage.

We're currently not looking for general server maintenance people though.

So sum-up we could need:
* css/html
* banner/graphics
* editorial stuff (review content/check whether pages are up-to-date,
whether stuff is missing)
* php/CMS work

If you're interested in any of the above just pick one :-)
If this reply is not what you had in mind, please tell us what area
you were thinking of - the list above is not complete, just what came
up to my mind right now...

ciao
Christian
