Hi Jim,

Sorry If I jumped the gun..

I'm currently exporting from 
https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/openoffice/4.1.5-RC1 to prepare 
for SF upload.


I can cancel it and restart it from dist/release if you need to move 
it now.

Hi Jim,

I have it now.

You can begin the move.

Re: [NEW CHAIR] Peter Kovacs is the new chair for Apache OpenOffice

2017-12-21 Thread Peter kovacs 
Hi,

I have done that a little in the beginning of the voting. So maybe I repeated 
some parts.

I live in Germany near Frankfurt am Main. I speak English and German. I know a 
little (very little) French and Hungarian.
I am working for the Reply group, which is an IT Consulting Company in the big 
Data section. Sadly Reply does not seem to have any open source specialist in 
their ranks, but I am still looking. 
My last employer was Cognizant one of the more successfully outsourcers. I 
liked it there, and I am probable the only technician who speaks positively on 
outsourcing without marketing blah, blah... However lovely people from India 
had some special influence on me.
In total I have 11 years of consulting experience, in the area of data since 
and data management. But to be honest I do at work whatever is needed and not 
what the description says. I love my job despite it  involves so many travels. 
;)

I never did any application development. However I became an open source 
enthusiast around 2000 - 2001 with switch to Linux in 2004. I used Gentoo for a 
long time.
I wrote my thesis with OpenOffice and was very pleased with it. I switched like 
most Linuxers to Libre with the takeover of Oracle. I was aware of open office 
existence but did not care until I read in the news about the shutdown 
discussion.
I decided that I do not want to tolerate that, and joined the project.
Since then I try to learn application development in my free time,  plus I try 
to support the project where I can. ( probably trying to do to much )
My employer limits my work to 6h per week in my free time. But so far none is 
checking. They are all happy people. :)

I have visited last year's FOSDEM and I will be there this year. ( this year 
even with a talk! )

So yea. That's so spontaneous a sum up of my live, I missed out the pen 
role-playing stuff, but I think we can talk about such/any stuff off list. Feel 
invited.

HTH
Peter

Actually the fastest way to add a dictionary should be clicking on 
Tools, Languages, More Dictionaries Online


More Dictionaries Online should point to a user friendly page like 
Mozilla's

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/language-tools/


in general yes. However, when you compare it with our download webpage 
you will see that we have left the big link table behind us. Actually I 
don't want to come back to this time.


The problem is that the menu item launches a weblink to 
https://extensions.openoffice.org/dictionaries?lang=en-US (where 
lang=value depends on the AOO interface language) which is then 
translated to 
https://extensions.openoffice.org/en/search?f%5B0%5D=field_project_tags%3A157 
(the same as clicking on the Dictionaries button on the Extensions website)


The same idea is used to pre-select the install files on our download 
webpage. I don't see this as a problem.


Of course you need the chance to change the pre-selected language. 
Otherwise you are stick with one language and this is indeed not a good way.


However searching for the words spelling or dictionaries returns many 
more results than the Dictionaries button (for instance none of the 
Portuguese tools show up when clicking Dictionaries)
This means that the search key is not working as expected (maybe not all 
extensions have the needed tag?)


Should I open a Bugzilla issue about this?


Is this something you would see improved in OpenOffice? If not, I think 
we don't need a BZ issue as we can discuss / work on this topic also here.


P.S. I can volunteer to kick off a similar list of the available AOO 
languages (and links to the extensions) if the devs agree that it makes 
sense to link to such a page.


As said: in general yes. But I don't want to see a lng list of 
links. We have 41 languages for the UI but there are much more languages 
possible for spell check.


When we use the same principle from the download webpage also here - 
that means: choose the language and then get the click-able link. What 
do you/others think?


Please don't get me wrong. I support your idea to improve the way to 
download dictionaries - as these are the most used extensions. Let's see 
if there is a more user-friendly way to get the wanted dic.


My 2 ct.
