Dear AOO400 workers,

not only Punjabi strings seem to be crucial for crashing.
When pasting the following string (ref.:

substrings (!!)*/ *in a AOO 4.0.0 Writer file:

I fixed Punjabi crashes OpenOffice and that bug [1] is already a 
candidate for getting into AOO 4.0.1. If you'd like to test the trunk 
version that contains the fix then please visit the AOO Snapshots [2] 
site and find the install packages for your platform. In your case the 
matching choice seems to be any of the Windows Nightly builds [3] 
except for the SDK package.

 Just a small comment: there is a typo on the project name: there is a
 missing i between the f and the c: it says Apache OpenOffce Extensions.


corrected (not by me someone was faster).

I am still waiting for the initial batch of po files, you cannot load the
primary set yourself.

In general we need .pot (po template files for en-US), these act as
template files for all languages.

Furthermore an administrator (e.g. me) needs to activate new languages,
currently no languages are active.

Re: Additional languages for buildbots

2013-08-13 Thread Herbert Duerr

On 13.08.2013 08:42, Andrea Pescetti wrote:

I see that yesterday's buildbot run completed successfully
http://ci.apache.org/projects/openoffice/#winsnap
(even though, since we are still building the SNAPSHOT tag, running that
buildbot is only testing that the buildbot works). This is the only one
where we support localization at the moment.

Before we forget, can we add to it at least
zh-TW (unsure aoput the right syntax) km pl kid ?
The first 3 languages are 100% complete in Pootle, kid is the KeyID
and it's useful to translators.


I now added km and zh-TW, pl was already there. Enabling the keyid 
build doesn't make sense until [1] is fixed. The current kid 
localization is quite out of date.


[1] https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=123014


This is only a step in making the new languages available for testing
(the other two being: regenerating the SDF files and moving the SNAPSHOT
tag or equivalent on the buildbot side), but it is independent of the
other actions needed.

And what is preventing us from having at least one Linux buildbot
equivalent to win7snap? I thought disk space was the issue, but from
Andrew's remarks I understood this is no longer problematic under
Windows or Linux.


Last week we ran out of space on the Windows buildbot. When Andrew 
cleaned things out they started working again. With the additional 
languages we are stressing it a bit more now though.


The snapshot tag is currently only moved sporadically so spending time 
in setting up new snapshot buildbots for e.g. Linux is an arguable 
investment. For most cases the already existing nightly builds are better.

  Right.  That work is incomplete.  I checked it in originally, after
  the logo vote, so we could start working on the product integration
  immediately.  But note that the above logo is not the one we actually
  used in AOO 4.0 !!
 
  The one we actually used is this one:
 
 
 
 
 https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/openoffice/branding/Apache_OpenOffice_Logo_ChrisR_selected_2013-06_Inkscape_kg.svg
 
  This was Chris R's contest logo with some minor technical changes.
  Kevin G. used this and generated the PNG/JPG files for AOO 4.0, which
  I helped check in.

  Again I think we do need a convention for a logo.svg as opposed to
  ending with a logo-30.svg logo-40.svg logo-50.svg. An just incrementally
  replace with the future logos as we update the SVG.
 

 Here's the complication:   The old logos are still relevant some some
 purposes.  For example, the PMC receives ongoing requests to approve
 use of the old OpenOffice.org logo.  Why would that happen?  Often it
 is a request by publishers who are making an e-book version of an
 older print book.  If their original request did not include the
 e-book rights then they come back to us (and owners of every other
 image they use) to request additional permissions.


​I think that 'complication' is the lesser of two evils., compared to
having to manage a ever growing ammount of images. And beside that, do you
realize the difference in objectives between ooo-site/images/
ooo-site/marketing/art/images/ and ooo-site/branding/images.

I dont see any reason why those issues should impact the web works of
ooo-site/images/. That folder is for website-design related work. It has,
or shouldnt hold any porpouse to archieve past work, nor to hold
description of any kind. I think website should be as lean and easy to
follow since we expect these conventions be followed by a rotating
community. So again K.I.S.S.

If those complications arises, send them to marketing or branding
workspaces.




 So it may be possible, going forward, to store logos as SVN revisions
 under the same name.  But we cannot retroactively do this with
 pre-Apache logos.  And even if we could, this is harder for users of
 the logo to access.  It is much easier to have something like
 logo-330.svg available via HTTP.


​svg are just like HTML files, they are markup languages, we dont hold the
index.html inmaculated and hold an apache-index.html and oracle-index.html,
so I dont see why SVG should be any different. The only porpouse of having
a source file, is for users to be able to modify it on the first place.
Either by integrating to a bigger SVG design, or resizing it for print
work.




 Of course you can have a hybrid approach:

 1) When a new logo is introduced, svn copy the old one into a
 /old-logos directory with a new descriptive name.  This preserves the
 version history.


​This is not functional and just start acumulating part of the same garbage
that svn is supposed to clean up. Again, if this was code, this would be
totally unacceptable approach. If new logos are introduced then they should
replace the current logo, and the old will live in anals of the svn logs.




 2) New logo then is checked in as a new revision of logo-master.svg.


​People are free to disagree with me, but I think this is a messy way to
work​, and for a webdev folder is completely useless, specially when there
is a whole different project specialized on archiving, developing, and
multiplying artwork inside marketing, and a whole different project devoted
to specifying the guideliness of the brand (aka logo).

  or something clean like that.  However, I have not had any luck
  getting this logo to load into Inkscape or Adobe Illustrator.  I get
  errors.  And I have not had any luck getting Kevin to send a version
  that will load.
 
  So we're stuck right now with a logo that does load into Inkscape, but
  is slightly different than the one we used in AOO 4.0.

 I like this idea or something akin to it. We should definitely preserve
 svgs for old logos in my opinion.  The new branding repository can be
 used for this, and given some additional structure.  I'm also finding some
 svg masters for items that are not really logos, like Get It Here, that
 probably need to be moved to branding even though they are not really
 logos.


​That is because branding original intention was to document/create the
guidelines, it was 100% documentation project. ART (inside marketing) is
the one that hold the logos, banners, artwork, design elements,
microbanners, and 3d work, etc.

http://www.openoffice.org/marketing/art/

As well as other type of design like Business card templates​, OOoCon
Impress templates, and such. Branding basically was just a branch on the
wiki. Eventually this was moved to the wiki.

We soon realize that managing the repository on the wiki would be a faster
and easier way since the wiki is much easier to make commits and updates to
it. Example, the splashscreen contest:

http://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Art/Gallery




 And, because there are quite a few sites using old logo versions, I don't
 really think we should track them all down and require them to upgrade.


​Some groups clone the 'master' logo and this makes it a bit harder to
track, there are still some abandoned NL projects with the design from OOo
3.0 (2008/9)​




 Again, I am only referring to svg for these. Renderings, png files, as far
 as I'm concerned, can be  renamed and kept anywhere. The new logo used on
 the website now, for example, is not  a drop in replacement for the old
 one, because the size is slightly larger due to design considerations.  So,


​AFAIK the new logo is exactly the same approach of the old logo (Apache on
top of OpenOffice and an Orb to the left). Can you explain further?​



 it's conceivable, depending on use, the even within the Apache OpenOffice
 site, etc., different renderings might be used. But maybe this is in
 

[RELEASE]: preparation for AOO 4.0.1

2013-08-13 Thread Jürgen Schmidt
Hi,

first if all I volunteer to act as the release manager for AOO 4.0.1 if
that is wanted but I am also open to let somebody else to the job ;-)

In preparation for an AOO 4.0.1 release I have first created a AOO400
tag based on revision 1503704. I have also created a new branch AOO401
based on branch AOO400 based on the head revision of the branch.

I noticed that Yuri checked in some code on the branch already. Can we
please follow some guideline how we handle such release branches?

I would like to propose the following:

Changes on a release branch should be discussed before and should be in
relation to a proposed and approved fix (if you want showstopper) that
will go in the next release.


For now that means the branch AOO400 is dead and changes towards AOO
4.0.1 have to be made on the new branch AOO401 and should be discussed
first. Or propose the related issue as showstopper first.

I believe we agreed more or less to keep the changes for AOO 4.0.1
minimal to reduce the test effort. We should concentrate on the most
serious issues only and on new languages or improved translations. Keep
in mind that AOO 4.1 is coming as well. Stability is a key feature and
every single bug fix can introduce a regression as well. Often not
obvious directly.


Any opinions or comment son this plan.

2013-08-13 Thread Yuri Dario
Hi,


 I noticed that Yuri checked in some code on the branch already. Can we
 please follow some guideline how we handle such release branches?


 Changes on a release branch should be discussed before and should be in
 relation to a proposed and approved fix (if you want showstopper) that
 will go in the next release.

sorry, but maybe I'm not understanding something; why do AOO400 (which
is a branch) fixes going into next release (AOO401) require another 
branch?

I committed to AOO400 because I supposed that newer (minor) releases 
were going into this branch, not into a different one.

And I don't undestand at all why branching again for 401, while we can
just use tagging to monitor minor bugfixes releases from AOO400 
branch.

I understand that a 4.1 release will incorporate new code while we can
still produce 4.0.2 on the older branch, so branching for 4.1 makes 
more sense.

with this branching tecnique, a bugfix must be sideported to every 
active branch, e.g. trunk, AOO401, AOO410 (maybe more in the future).

If I missed some guideline doc on the wiki please excuse me.

thanks,

we simply preserve the release branch. A branch is cheap in svn and we
can easier differentiate where the fixes should go.

 I understand that a 4.1 release will incorporate new code while we can
 still produce 4.0.2 on the older branch, so branching for 4.1 makes 
 more sense.

well we can of course discuss this further but because the fact that
branches are cheap we can also use this scheme.

 
 with this branching tecnique, a bugfix must be sideported to every 
 active branch, e.g. trunk, AOO401, AOO410 (maybe more in the future).

why? We don't have a 4.1 branch and fixes only have to be merged in a
branch if they are accepted showstopper. Now with the new branch nobody
should work on the AOO400 branch. The branch is dead for further
development.

Work towards 4.1 should happen on trunk. Major features should be done
on a separate branch anyway.

 
 If I missed some guideline doc on the wiki please excuse me.
 

No you don't miss any guideline and again we can discuss it. But it
change nothing. Either AOO400 or AOO401 in both cases you should
integrate only code that are related to an existing issue which is
proposed and accepted as showstopper.

Probably not, it's mainly your personal preference which is fine. But if
we change it it annoys potentially other users. The question is what
would be the correct and most often wanted default.

These are questions that we can't answer easy. We can run a survey and
will potentially get a 60:40, 70:30 or 50:50 answer that won't help us.

But you can try to figure out the related config item and can create a
mini extension that you deploy in your office to use a different
default. Don't ask me which config item is relevant here, I don't know
without looking into the code.

I do not see those margin you talk about and for a good reason: I never use
maximized windows. I hate maximized windows. Other people love maximized
windows, of course, but many of us just hate them: how do you count how
many people is on each camp?

Default values are an important discussion point and I started a couple of
threads about defaults in the past, but defaults are also an incredible
difficult question where almost all possible answers are at the same time
wrong and right for someone.

I propose to start (again) a discussion about default values, but not now:
let's concentrate on 4.0.1.

Andrew's remarks I understood this is no longer problematic under
Windows or Linux.


Last week we ran out of space on the Windows buildbot. When Andrew 
cleaned things out they started working again. With the additional 
languages we are stressing it a bit more now though.
Actually, the situation is not too bad - the disk space issue is under 
control now and we have space for languages as they become available.


The snapshot tag is currently only moved sporadically so spending time 
in setting up new snapshot buildbots for e.g. Linux is an arguable 
investment.

We are waiting on the CentOS bot to set up the Linux 32 snapshot build.
I'm also about to look at the ubuntu bots - now that they're back on , 
it would be good to have them running through correctly.

For most cases the already existing nightly builds are better.
This is something we need to resolve (by making the bot builds better, 
of course) I think the CentOS bot will help us move in that direction.

In preparation for an AOO 4.0.1 release I have first created a AOO400
tag based on revision 1503704. I have also created a new branch AOO401
based on branch AOO400 based on the head revision of the branch.

I noticed that Yuri checked in some code on the branch already. Can we
please follow some guideline how we handle such release branches?

I would like to propose the following:

Changes on a release branch should be discussed before and should be in
relation to a proposed and approved fix (if you want showstopper) that
will go in the next release.


For now that means the branch AOO400 is dead and changes towards AOO
4.0.1 have to be made on the new branch AOO401 and should be discussed
first. Or propose the related issue as showstopper first.

I believe we agreed more or less to keep the changes for AOO 4.0.1
minimal to reduce the test effort. We should concentrate on the most
serious issues only and on new languages or improved translations. Keep
in mind that AOO 4.1 is coming as well. Stability is a key feature and
every single bug fix can introduce a regression as well. Often not
obvious directly.



I assume we also want to avoid introducing new UI strings?   Otherwise
we'd require translation updates on all languages.



I would formulate it stronger: we cannot allow new strings, unless it is
absolutely unavoidable.






Any opinions or comment son this plan.



Should we create new Release Notes?  Or augment the existing 4.0.0
ones?   It might be simpler if 4.0.x releases share the same release
notes, but we start with fresh ones for 4.1?



Lets share release notes, amend so that is clear what is only available in
4.0.1, and start from a fresh with 4.1



For 3.4.1, which was basically an update release with addtional languages,
the release notes were sort of like an addendum to 3.4.0 --


https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OOOUSERS/AOO+3.4.1+Release+Notes

I think Release Notes for 4.0.1 should be similar but, yes, we need a new
page for them.


I agree, the release notes for 4.0.1 should have there own page 
documenting the changes for that release only with a link to the full 
4.0.0 notes.

I also assume that 4.0.1 will simply overwrite 4.0 exe on mirrors etc.

unexpected behavior from configure -- new env script not generated

2013-08-13 Thread Kay Schenk
Yesterday, I did a dmake clean to start over with my build, and then
proceded with autoconf and configure. I had chagned my ant version a while
back and this was reflected in my configure call. Much to my surprise, the
old ant version seemed to be stuck' in configure's brain, and it took me a
while to track this down and just delete my existing shell environment
script. Then the configure worked as expected. This was the ONLY change in
my configure params

Any guesses as to the cause of this?
* Is this a problem with *my* system autoconf or configure ?
* is this how things normally work and we should document this in the build
instructions ?

I'm looking at configure.in etc but since I'm not an autoconf guru, well,
what to do.

I have had similar problems a couple of times.

I used to have source LinuxX86-64Env.Set.sh in .bashrc, meaning
environment was set when I ran configure.

After having a couple of strange problem (in my case with epm), I took
source... out of .bashrc, so securing that I run configure without the
AOO environment, since then I have not had problems.

Due to my genLang tests, I do configure a couple of times pr week (to test
my build changes).

hope it helps.

Right.  That work is incomplete.  I checked it in originally, after
the logo vote, so we could start working on the product integration
immediately.  But note that the above logo is not the one we
actually
used in AOO 4.0 !!
   
The one we actually used is this one:
   
   
   
   
  
 
 https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/openoffice/branding/Apache_OpenOffice_Logo_ChrisR_selected_2013-06_Inkscape_kg.svg
   
This was Chris R's contest logo with some minor technical changes.
Kevin G. used this and generated the PNG/JPG files for AOO 4.0,
which
I helped check in.
   
My intent was to take that SVG and rename it to
 master-logo-40.svg
   
   
Again I think we do need a convention for a logo.svg as opposed to
ending with a logo-30.svg logo-40.svg logo-50.svg. An just
  incrementally
replace with the future logos as we update the SVG.
   
  
   Here's the complication:   The old logos are still relevant some some
   purposes.  For example, the PMC receives ongoing requests to approve
   use of the old OpenOffice.org logo.  Why would that happen?  Often it
   is a request by publishers who are making an e-book version of an
   older print book.  If their original request did not include the
   e-book rights then they come back to us (and owners of every other
   image they use) to request additional permissions.
  
 
  I think that 'complication' is the lesser of two evils., compared to
  having to manage a ever growing ammount of images. And beside that, do
  you
  realize the difference in objectives between ooo-site/images/
  ooo-site/marketing/art/images/ and ooo-site/branding/images.
 
  I dont see any reason why those issues should impact the web works of
  ooo-site/images/. That folder is for website-design related work. It
 has,
  or shouldnt hold any porpouse to archieve past work, nor to hold
  description of any kind. I think website should be as lean and easy to
  follow since we expect these conventions be followed by a rotating
  community. So again K.I.S.S.
 
 
  No, it shouldn't. The ooo-site/images areas got the logo added to it
 simply
  because to make it easier to locate it. The other images files there
 belong
  to the home page.  The svg sub-directory here is really the mis-placed
 one.

 Then there is also no need for multiple versions of the logo either,
 like is currently loaded including the current long filename.

 
 
  If those complications arises, send them to marketing or branding
  workspaces.
 
 
 
  
   So it may be possible, going forward, to store logos as SVN revisions
   under the same name.  But we cannot retroactively do this with
   pre-Apache logos.  And even if we could, this is harder for users of
   the logo to access.  It is much easier to have something like
   logo-330.svg available via HTTP.
  
 
  svg are just like HTML files, they are markup languages, we dont hold
 the
  index.html inmaculated and hold an apache-index.html and
  oracle-index.html,
  so I dont see why SVG should be any different.
 
 
   I don't agree this assessment. The svg files contain branding, or
  trademark sources. These are entities which should not be  changed --
  resulting in a trademark violation. If there is something wrong with the
  SVG files for whatever reason, this needs to undergo a justification
  discussion.

 If we go by that scenario, every footer, about page also contain
 trademark information, that shouldnt be modified.


True enough and we generally discuss anything like that before making
changes.




 
  The only porpouse of having
  a source file, is for users to be able to modify it on the first place.
  Either by integrating to a bigger SVG design, or resizing it for print
  work.

I'm putting the sources into the  branding source area, We had already

For now, there will be some duplications.

 some
  svg masters for items that are not really logos, like Get It Here, that

  And, because there are quite a few sites using old logo versions, I don't
  really think we should track them all down and require them to upgrade.

  one, because the size is slightly larger due to design considerations.

 I'm putting the sources into the  branding source area, We had already
 discussed this. Soon we will probably discuss deleting them *from* the
 marketing/art area. The biggest problem right now is actually FINDING all
 these.

Like I mentioned before, branding is not a place to store images, is
the analog of building a warehouse in your lawyer office. Branding was
builted for documenting the specs of the logo. Certainly no need for
long filenames, nor useless conventions like 'selected' referencing a
marketing contest.


 For now, there will be some duplications.


No need for that if we follow the convention already in place.

 Apache OpenOffice does not have the same structure as the old

Why not? There is already a body of work builted that has been proved
with a filename convention and is easy to identify the artwork, logo
and other type of work.

 OpenOffice.org with defined project areas, project area leaders, project
 area committers etc.  So setting up the separate branding area was
 discussed and these files are now being put there.

I am not sure branding is a right place to put and hold the artwork,

 I have had similar problems a couple of times.

 I used to have source LinuxX86-64Env.Set.sh in .bashrc, meaning

 After having a couple of strange problem (in my case with epm), I took
 source... out of .bashrc, so securing that I run configure without the
 AOO environment, since then I have not had problems.

 Due to my genLang tests, I do configure a couple of times pr week (to test

 got around it by just deleting my *.sh file and then running configure
again. If I knew more about autoconf, I could just put some code in that to
delete it.  Configure is supposed to create the environment -- part of the
AC_OUTPUT I think, so this is why I asked about this.  In my case, my *.sh
is not getting overwritten but seemingly reused.

 well,

Re: [RELEASE]: preparation for AOO 4.0.1

 Hi,

 first if all I volunteer to act as the release manager for AOO 4.0.1 if
 that is wanted but I am also open to let somebody else to the job ;-)


 It is probably best if you continue, since 4.0.1 is very closely
 related to 4.0.0, and you already have the build environment set up,
 etc.

  +1


 I'm fine with another round.


  In preparation for an AOO 4.0.1 release I have first created a AOO400
 tag based on revision 1503704. I have also created a new branch AOO401
 based on branch AOO400 based on the head revision of the branch.

 I noticed that Yuri checked in some code on the branch already. Can we
 please follow some guideline how we handle such release branches?

 I would like to propose the following:

 Changes on a release branch should be discussed before and should be in
 relation to a proposed and approved fix (if you want showstopper) that
 will go in the next release.


 For now that means the branch AOO400 is dead and changes towards AOO
 4.0.1 have to be made on the new branch AOO401 and should be discussed
 first. Or propose the related issue as showstopper first.

 I believe we agreed more or less to keep the changes for AOO 4.0.1
 minimal to reduce the test effort. We should concentrate on the most
 serious issues only and on new languages or improved translations. Keep
 in mind that AOO 4.1 is coming as well. Stability is a key feature and
 every single bug fix can introduce a regression as well. Often not
 obvious directly.


 I assume we also want to avoid introducing new UI strings?   Otherwise
 we'd require translation updates on all languages.


 I would formulate it stronger: we cannot allow new strings, unless it is
 absolutely unavoidable.




 Any opinions or comment son this plan.


 Should we create new Release Notes?  Or augment the existing 4.0.0
 ones?   It might be simpler if 4.0.x releases share the same release
 notes, but we start with fresh ones for 4.1?


 Lets share release notes, amend so that is clear what is only available
 in
 4.0.1, and start from a fresh with 4.1


 For 3.4.1, which was basically an update release with addtional languages,
 the release notes were sort of like an addendum to 3.4.0 --


 https://cwiki.apache.org/**confluence/display/OOOUSERS/**
 AOO+3.4.1+Release+Noteshttps://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OOOUSERS/AOO+3.4.1+Release+Notes

 I think Release Notes for 4.0.1 should be similar but, yes, we need a new
 page for them.


 +1

 In general refer to the 4.0.0 release notes and add just the new things.
 The 3.4.1 release notes are a good example.

 Marcus


I took the liberty of setting up a couple of skeleton pages for 4.0.1 just
now. Basically cloned some of the outline for 3.4.1






  I also assume that 4.0.1 will simply overwrite 4.0 exe on mirrors etc.

 Right.  That work is incomplete.  I checked it in originally,
 after
 the logo vote, so we could start working on the product

 immediately.  But note that the above logo is not the one we
 actually
 used in AOO 4.0 !!
 
 The one we actually used is this one:
 
 
 
 
 
 
 https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/openoffice/branding/Apache_OpenOffice_Logo_ChrisR_selected_2013-06_Inkscape_kg.svg
 
 This was Chris R's contest logo with some minor technical
 changes.
 Kevin G. used this and generated the PNG/JPG files for AOO 4.0,
 which
 I helped check in.
 
 My intent was to take that SVG and rename it to
 master-logo-40.svg
 
 
 Again I think we do need a convention for a logo.svg as opposed
 to
 ending with a logo-30.svg logo-40.svg logo-50.svg. An just
 incrementally
 replace with the future logos as we update the SVG.
 
 
 Here's the complication:   The old logos are still relevant some
 some
 purposes.  For example, the PMC receives ongoing requests to approve
 use of the old OpenOffice.org logo.  Why would that happen?  Often
 it
 is a request by publishers who are making an e-book version of an
 older print book.  If their original request did not include the
 e-book rights then they come back to us (and owners of every other
 image they use) to request additional permissions.
 
 
 I think that 'complication' is the lesser of two evils., compared to
 having to manage a ever growing ammount of images. And beside that, do
 you
 realize the difference in objectives between ooo-site/images/
 ooo-site/marketing/art/images/ and ooo-site/branding/images.
 
 I dont see any reason why those issues should impact the web works of
 ooo-site/images/. That folder is for website-design related work. It
 has,
 or shouldnt hold any porpouse to archieve past work, nor to hold
 description of any kind. I think website should be as lean and easy to
 follow since we expect these conventions be followed by a rotating
 community. So again K.I.S.S.
 
 
 No, it shouldn't. The ooo-site/images areas got the logo added to it
 simply
 because to make it easier to locate it. The other images files there
 belong
 to the home page.  The svg sub-directory here is really the mis-placed
 one.
 
 Actually I would like to see getting rid of the rasterize images
 instead. Modern browsers already process SVG natively without issues.
 
 
 
 Well, that's not completely true: even if not modern any more there are
 literally millions of people still using internet explorer 8 or even older
 versions, and SVG support was *partially* implemented only from IE9. IE8
 needs a plug-in for SVG rendering.
 
 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scalable_Vector_Graphics#Compatibility
 
 That's why I recomend and reference javascript libraries that take
 care of legacy browsers additionally there are fallback techniques

 can just test this easily using browsershots or something similar and
 evaluate.

 Ricardo
 
 
 
 
 
 Also there are js libraries that ensure browser compatibility like the
 svgweb.js library:
 http://code.google.com/p/svgweb/
 
 
 
 
 If those complications arises, send them to marketing or branding
 workspaces.

​I agree from what started as a webdev discussion has diverged into a
larger problem with the proliferation of repositories. Not sure if the
proposal should include the marketing-art and branding project. The issue
however are related.​

I think this should be organized as:
- filename and file structure cleanup for webdev
- stablish a convention for webdev
- update the marketing-art gallery/wiki
- Organize branding


​From my experience, the wiki was increasily used as a place for
storing/organizing content while the most static was on the www site.
However it seems more people are more commit-happy and more interested into
going back to the svn to perform these operations.​

 https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/openoffice/branding/Apache_OpenOffice_Logo_ChrisR_selected_2013-06_Inkscape_kg.svg
 
 This was Chris R's contest logo with some minor technical
 changes.
 Kevin G. used this and generated the PNG/JPG files for AOO 4.0,
 which
 I helped check in.
 
 My intent was to take that SVG and rename it to
 master-logo-40.svg
 
 
 Again I think we do need a convention for a logo.svg as opposed
 to
 ending with a logo-30.svg logo-40.svg logo-50.svg. An just
 incrementally
 replace with the future logos as we update the SVG.
 
 
 Here's the complication:   The old logos are still relevant some
 some
 purposes.  For example, the PMC receives ongoing requests to approve
 use of the old OpenOffice.org logo.  Why would that happen?  Often
 it
 is a request by publishers who are making an e-book version of an
 older print book.  If their original request did not include the
 e-book rights then they come back to us (and owners of every other
 image they use) to request additional permissions.
 
 
 I think that 'complication' is the lesser of two evils., compared to
 having to manage a ever growing ammount of images. And beside that,
 do
 you
 realize the difference in objectives between ooo-site/images/
 ooo-site/marketing/art/images/ and ooo-site/branding/images.
 
 I dont see any reason why those issues should impact the web works of
 ooo-site/images/. That folder is for website-design related work. It
 has,
 or shouldnt hold any porpouse to archieve past work, nor to hold
 description of any kind. I think website should be as lean and easy
 to
 follow since we expect these conventions be followed by a rotating
 community. So again K.I.S.S.
 
 
 No, it shouldn't. The ooo-site/images areas got the logo added to it
 simply
 because to make it easier to locate it. The other images files there
 belong
 to the home page.  The svg sub-directory here is really the mis-placed
 one.
 
 Actually I would like to see getting rid of the rasterize images
 instead. Modern browsers already process SVG natively without issues.
 
 
 
 Well, that's not completely true: even if not modern any more there
 are
 literally millions of people still using internet explorer 8 or even
 older
 versions, and SVG support was *partially* implemented only from IE9. IE8
 needs a plug-in for SVG rendering.
