Re: Call for AOO 4.0 translation volunteers via update notification
Rob Weir wrote: My proposed landing page is here: http://www.openoffice.org/projects/untranslated.html The page and the strategy are good. I wonder what the best timing is (I don't have an answer). Between now and 4.0 (but possibly all within 10 days or so) we will see the following l10n-relevant changes: 1) Strings to be translated: OpenOffice 3.4.1 - OpenOffice 4.0 2) New Pootle server (which might offer good performance and, after discussion, the possibility to register non-committers accounts) 3) Strings refactoring (40 PO files instead of 240) 4) New internal localization process, i.e., how we integrate PO files. This is less visible for translators, anyway, Starting the call immediately and then having at least three major workflow changes would be problematic. So what I don't know is the order/timeframe of actions 1-3. Can anyone make an estimate? If it makes sense (i.e., if we have plans for major changes in the very near future) we might want to do one or more of these actions before issuing a large call for volunteers.

Build breaker and clean build
Hi, tonight we had a build breaker in the windows build: a slot id that is used in SW had been removed in SVX. The reference in SW had also been removed, so this change should not be a problem. But the windows build is still not a full build. Therefore the old SW slot header files where used and the build broke. There is an easy fix for situations like this: a clean build. This may become important in the coming weeks when we have to fix some bugs in the sidebar (which is about to be merged back into trunk). The sidebar is implemented in several modules. Without a clean windows build we will run into build breakers very regularly. As I see it, we have a real problem here.

Sidebar merged into trunk
Hi community, the first phase of the sidebar development is complete. The sidebar is now feature complete, ie all panels that are planned for the 4.0 release are now available. More importantly: we have just merged the sidebar branch into trunk. That means that from now on, every build of trunk will contain the sidebar. It is active by default and ready for use. The next phase will concentrate on two things: - Improving usability and appearance. - Finding and fixing bugs. Everyone of you can help with both points: please try out the sidebar and tell us about everything that does not work or that you don't like. If you find an error then please look at [1] to see if something like this is already known. If not, please write a new issue for it. For everything else we have this mailing list.

A small question is someone looking at documenting this new feature, including online doc ? this has to be done unfortunately and I see a problem to have a good integrated help in place for 4.0. The help system is one area where we should try to find a better solution. I can think of an optional package and some kind of internal mapping between help id's and the place where to find the help files. then we can have an online version of the help which give us further advantages and we can have an downloadable and optional help (package, extension) for offline usage on demand. something for the future I guess, one of many things that we can improve or where somebody can start working on Juergen rgds jan I.

On 10.04.2013 11:48, Andre Fischer wrote: For everything else we have this mailing list. While the new builds are not yet available (I will let you know when they are), let me start with a bag of things that need improvement. I list only things where the best behavior is not entirely clear and I need your input: 1. The default sizes of the sidebar and application windows need better defaults. Writer on Linux is dominated by the sidebar. 2. Handling of scroll wheel in sidebar is not consistent: sometimes the wheel scrolls the edit view, sometimes it changes the values of some controls, but it never scrolls the sidebar (which I think should be the default while the mouse pointer is over the sidebar). 3. The sidebar tab bar is currently always located on the right side of the sidebar. Even when docked at the left side. Maybe the tab bar should then be located at the left? What about RTL writing mode? (At the moment the sidebar can be docked at the bottom, but I have already a fix for that) 4. I think that the color scheme is still a little bit too far in the battelship-gray corner of the color space. 5. The controls in the drop downs are not consistent. While I think that consistency with the rest of the office has not top priority, consistency inside the sidebar has (or should have, we want to impress our users, right?) I personally have come to like the drop downs that where migrated from Symphony, like the one for the Width control of the Line panel (make the Line panel visible by adding and/or selecting a shape to an application of your choice). Compare it to the drop down of the Styles control right below. As you see, much of this is a matter of taste. There is no one right solution. And yet we have to agree on one.

I'm not making a moral judgement. I'm a blogger after all, so self-serving and biased is something I'm intimately familiar with ;-) I'm just saying that users who care enough to want a comparison chart would probably be savvy enough to know that one that we provided, no matter how well intentioned, is not to be trusted. Look at the LibreOffice one for an example of the kinds of games that can be played. They list the minutia of features that no users actually care about, when that is a checkmark in their column, while ignoring the huge features that MS Office has that they lack. That kind of comparison doesn't really serve the user well, and I think we, as a non-profit, should avoid that kind of spin. Of course, if you have in mind a different kind of comparison, one more grounded in reality, then I'm all ears. Regards, -Rob … thinking further on this, I suppose one thing I'd rather (or like to) have is not a feature (or bug) comparison but rather a chart that can show how and where community can intervene on their own behalf. My reading of AOO is that seldom do enterprise users (ore even individuals) look to such comparisons in shopping around. A user, like an accountant or artist or novelist or student, or etc., might look to see if the suite has a particular feature and buy it for that reason (or download it for free). But probably the majority don't do that. Enterprise purchases are made using different criteria. But what is really a differentiator, I'd like to believe, is the fact that because AOO is open source and has a welcoming community plus an active developer base, users can shape the suite to suit their ends. louis - To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@openoffice.apache.org Mostly I was suggesting a chart like this because it's a quick way for users/prospective users to ascertain functional features, that's all. e.g. Well I'm doing X now in MS Office, can I do the same thing in AOO? I have seen many articles like this, and a few comparison charts, but not very comprehensive, and rather old -- OO.o 2.x etc. -- MzK Achieving happiness requires the right combination of Zen and Zin.

At present there is no easy way out of using the command line. How to install OpenOffice is clearly set out in this tutorial. Note that, if you are using Ubuntu, you should remove all traces of LibreOffice before installing OpenOffice. The removal is best done (in my experience) using Synaptic; tell it to find libreoffice-core, and remmove that and associated programs.
