Re: a german speaking Flyer
Hallo Jörg, 2012/11/10 Jörg Schmidt joe...@j-m-schmidt.de Hello, I would like to inform that some members of the German community have created a flyer and printed, which we use for local work. A direct view of the flyer: http://www.calc-info.de/files/flyer_aoo_de.pdf Jan makes this available for free use. The editable file of the flyer here is a Scribus file (*. sla), as Scribus here for prepress (offset printing) was necessary. The flyer is licensed under Apache License and Creative Commons (CC-BY). All required files are in: http://www.wienandt.de/download/aoo/aoo-flyer-de.zip I've created a derivated work of your flyer. www.softenpoche.com/sep/flyer_de.pdf The aim was to get an .odt version, printable in Black and White and exportable in hybrid pdf format (with the Oracle pdfimport extension) so that it could also serve as an example of the use of this functionality. I had never produced such a document, but with your file as a template, it was a piece of cake, so, many thanks to you and your team. A+ -- gw

Open Office 3.41
Hi, I have recently updated open office to the latest version since doing so a problem with spell check has occurred in that after typing a document or letter clicking on spell check, it states almost every word is incorrect but makes no suggestions for corrections. Have other people experienced this problem is there a solution. Thank you Kind Regards Kevin Bailey
Re: Open Office 3.41
Hi Kevin, I'm sorry to hear you are having a problem. There is a tutorial on the forum about this topic. http://forum.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?f=74t=16512 There are a few different possible causes and it is probably easier for you to look there and work through the steps of the tutorial rather than someone trying to explain it all here. You don't need to register to look at the tutorial. If your problem isn't solved, I encourage you to register on the forum and ask there or try the user mailing list.

Starting Introduction to Contributing to Apache OpenOffice Module
Hello everyone, my name is Miguel and I'm interesting in helping with the documentation of Open Office. I do not have previous formal writing experience except for what I have done in my undergraduate and graduate courses. However, I'm willing to contribute my time and learn.

On 04/10/2012 Rob Weir wrote: We're in the process of creating an updated OpenOffice professional services directory, to replace the outdated one that we removed from the website a few months ago. I've been looking at doing the same for the /it website, with the aim to obtain a list of Italian consultants. As I see it, this would be a fork of the consultants database, since we would list there only the Italian consultants (as it used to be) and link to http://www.openoffice.org/bizdev/consultants.html for global information. The problem is that in this case we will want the output page to appear under /it and take the branding normally applied to the /it directory. What's the best way to do it? An svn copy of consultants from /bizdev to /it and subsequent customization? This is not so nice, but with version control it wouldn't be very painful to synchronize relevant changes. Or shall I need to just put in /bizdev/consultants a new file, say to-html_it.xsl, that takes a new database, say consultants_it.xml, and produces an HTML file in /it? The latter option reduces duplication but adds clutter to /bizdev/consultants. Regards, Andrea.

We're waiting for access to the Mac buildbot. The buildbot software has only recently been loaded on the current box - the older Mac slave turned out to be 'all dead'.

Pretty sure full language set is built on L32 and L64.

Actually, this was discussed during ApacheCon, and it is another of our long standing goals.
