I always did a lot of talking, since I felt it is necessary. I still
believe we should do more talking. But I came originally to support
development and not to do the managing talking stuff.

So I try now to grow more to the development part, and do less talking,
managing. Maybe some of you need todo more talking then. ;)

sure, I agree with you if we talk about commits. I reserve the right to
break my copy as much as I want. ;)

The OpenOffice build system is both complicated and fragile. If you do 
move things around, you MUST test the ability to build and install for 
each supported OS.


To me, this change seems high risk for low benefit. I would far rather 
see any available cycles put into replacing ad-hoc data structures with 
STL structures.

Hello all,


I am really annoyed by the Code. I see repentance and to me a code
concept is totally lacking.

What I would like to do is a general cleanup / refactoring pass.

I would like to start with similar features and move them together in
the same module, maybe even merge them.

As a process I suggest I post a mail with [refactor] in the subject. The
Mail will contain what will be moved merged, I collect all references in
the mail.

If there is no objection within 3+ days I conduct the move. (+ because I
need to find time to move and test the change.)


Is this a process feasible?


All the Best

depends on how many time you want to invest and how many developers are 
with you. I've always understood that you haven't much time for 
developing. ;-)


But in any case I strongly recommend not to merge back to trunk any code 
that hasn't seen very detailed testing.


When you have code that you don't know how to test (e.g., because any 
other hardware/software is needed that you don't have), then please 
don't touch this code.

I've downloaded a second ago and haven't seen a problem. So, in general 
it's working.


When you have problems with specific mirror servers then just change 
them. On the SourceForge webpage there is a grey "Problems Downloading?" 
button. Just click on it and choose a different mirror from the popup 
dialog.
