Re: Close, but not quite 100 million...

2014-04-15 Thread Roberto Galoppini
Few hours ago we went live with a countdown counter on Apache OpenOffice
project page at SourceForge, check it out:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/openofficeorg.mirror/

This is a brand new feature we created for Apache OpenOffice 100 M mark,
hope you'll like it!

 Yes, tonight I'm going to have the 100px ready for Rob on the homepage.

 I'll also firebug hack facebook/twitter/G+ locally so I can preview the
 profile background without actually uploading so its ready too.

 I'll also post share links:
 twitter 86 char w/o link We hit 100 Million+ downloads today! RT to show
 support. The #free #opensource office suite
 https://www.openoffice.org/download/;
 facebook/g+ @ApacheOO hits 100 Million+ downloads! Celebrate with us by
 sharing the news. Get the #free #opensource office productivity suite here
 https://www.openoffice.org/download/;

 Rob can you private e-mail me when it hit 100Mil with the blog post (is it
 in draft yet?).  I don't always view the mailinglist but I will see a pm to
 my inbox, hopefully I'm around my pc.

 estimation when that will happen, its till est for thursday?

  Is the official template for slides already available? Speakers in

  Of course we still need someone who can design the 100 millions

Does the counter shows the count of all downloaded artefacts or only the

Very nice! One little point. The Downloads served counter is dynamic - one can 
see it change for each download. The Weekly counter is static - surely that 
should also change?

[PROPOSAL]: drop tar.gz source release, 1 of 3 formats

2014-04-15 Thread Jürgen Schmidt
Hi,

currently we are preparing 3 src releases packages with the same content.

For example:

apache-openoffice-4.1.0-r1586584-src.tar.bz2 - size 217635696
apache-openoffice-4.1.0-r1586584-src.tar.gz  - size 287122205
apache-openoffice-4.1.0-r1586584-src.zip - size 335796134

The first 2 are common in the unix world and the third one in the
windows world. To reduce the used disk space on mirrors and to reduce
uploads etc. I would like to propose that we drop the .tar.gz version
starting with AOO 4.2 or whatever version comes next after AOO 4.1.

If nobody complains I will execute according the proposal for future
releases.

The weekly counter is updated by a batch process every three hours. In
future we might work on applying those changes site-wide, for the time
being the countdown counter is just for AOO and that's why we have been
able to udpate it dinamically.

I think the referenced list is also used by Rob's scripts to create the

Hopefully, the downloads of the checksum files are not included in the 
new download counter on SourceForge. Also, the downloads of the SDKs 
should not be included.


It would be good, if the new download counter at SourceForge and the

+1 for dropping one of two packages.

I am not sure, if the dropped one should be the *.tar.gz one as our 
current full installation packages for Linux provided for the 
convenience of our users are *.tar.gz files.
But may be this is not relevant as the target audience for the source 
release and full installation packages are different.

It's intentional that the two prominent items are 4.0.1 and 4.1.0-beta.

This would be quite interesting. Of course this is for the medium-long 
term, but it would be nice to know what we can use, in terms of 
technology, on the current openoffice.org site.


For example, the blog for sure strips all iframe. I don't know if the 
Apache CMS (the tool responsible for publishing pages on openoffice.org) 
enforces similar changes to prevent embedding content from other sites.

 xz compression is better but not so common, I am not sure. At Apache
 tar.gz is most common and tar.bz2 as well. But I have not seen tar.xz

xz is present in all modern Linux distributions and FreeBSD. It is also
available on Solaris 5.11 as pkg://solaris/compress/xz (but not
installed by default I think).

 And I want drop one and don't replace one.

Going from zip+gzip+bzip2 to zip+xz will drop two and add one. And it
will reduce download size for users who build from source by several
dozen MB.

and FAQ [2] can help to get started into this topic. Especially see the 
FAQ's chapter 2.9 (Why is it so annoying to write a compiler version 
dependent C++ bridge?) on the deliberate design decisions that lead to 
this unfortunate fragility. There are other applications in the same 
league as OpenOffice that use their implementation languages plainly 
avoiding this extreme platform dependency.

There is a good chance that the ABI hasn't much changed and that the 
different compiler versions produces similar enough code so that one 
could eventually get along with minor tweaks to the Solaris Sparc UNO 
C++ bridge. The links above hopefully help to find the knobs in 
main/bridges/source/cpp_uno/cc*solaris_sparc* source. The related tests 
in main/testtools/source/bridgetest can eventually help too.

Correction: Ken, I've tried to reproduce your bug on my system (Win 7, AOO

Still, if you experience a problem, report a problem to the issues website

  When you copy a spreadsheet in open office and paste it in MS Paint, if
 you use colored text, the text color changes to a different color.  Some of
 my spreadsheets I like to save them as a JPEG and with MS Paint you can do
 this.   Its frustrating to see the Red Text change to Blue text when you

Exactly. We were incrementally moving to the wikis overall, but there was some
