It should work the other way round: someone who does have the skills to 
fully mentor a non-trivial project proposes it. Then other community 
members can surely step in and help, but proposing a project that relies 
on someone else doing (a crucial part of the) work is not the optimal 
situation. That said, it is surely better than nothing.


You/we can also look, in the archives, at the several lists of possible 
projects we discussed or prepared for Summer of Code or similar 
initiatives: most of them remained vague proposals, stopped before we 
could have someone really competent to evaluate them also in terms of 
effort.

I don't see an automatic way to do it, but look at the numbers next to each
file (right), these are individual file downloads, so you can sum only the
downloads you're interested in.

Notes:
* hover your mouse on the name, it will show the full file name after a few
seconds, as a tooltip.
** I notice that file fingerprints are also considered a download (MD5,
sha, ...), so ignore them; you need to look sum only on the rows with the
LARGE numbers, that usually represent the installation and the language
pack downloads (the numbers next to the "...install{.exe/.dmg/.gz}" files).

Goodluck, and... share your findings,

Re: proposed student project? freedesktop.org desktop integration for debian

[Alexandro Colorado]

I am not sure how hard would that be but you can easily setup an
environment using a virtualbox with whatever os you need (debian,
suse, fedora, or... gulp... windows) and just compile there.

Sure virtual environments are not the best location to do your
compilation, however it will get you the basic toolkit set and version
that you need.

Another more sofisticated option is to use vagrant. Vagrant is aimed
for developers that want to have an encapsulating environment, and
portable (able to move it between different distros). It does uses
virtualization but in a different fashion.

Unfortunately I dont admin any forum to see what you are seen, so I only
have access to the forum search engine but I know that the Admin (the one
able to delete the forum) is a different view.

I know the individual post url is on a (very small) icon next to the Posted

like this.

The problem is that the numbers are not sequential for finding the threads. It is even more

proposed student project? freedesktop.org desktop integration for debian

[Kay Schenk]

OpenOffice has been approached by students for a one semester project
(approximately 96 hours) involving an open source project, see the
following thread--
http://markmail.org/message/2uxfdm2tjh7ei2zl

They are using Ubuntu.

Recently, we had a post regarding broken desktop integration for debian.
See this thread at:

http://markmail.org/message/t5i57kr4z4bfffyp

After reading this one, I started some research on why/how to integrate
freedesktop.org into debian (a system I personally do not use). Not
using a debian-based Linux distro, it never occurred to me that only one
desktop integration was provided for debian.

Would it be beneficial to have the students work on freedesktop
integration for our debian builds? I would prepare an issue with
pertinent details as far as I am able , but would rely on some of our
debian-based developers to fill in some pieces.

Thoughts?

Re: Help.. Build error about missing processdeps.awk under Windows7

Hi Steve,

How to run make clean under solenv?
Do you mean build --prepare --from solenv ?

I rebuild by  removing evrything not in original repository, except
main/external & extra_source.
But it still doesn't work.

Is it related to cygwin ?
I'm using 1.7.32

or Make & autoconf ?

OK. Thanks for this information. For any work on the code, you will need
to do builds which can be done in a variety of ways. Historically the
OpenOffice builds were done with command line. But now more use of IDEs.
We can provide more information about this at some point.

No more information needed right now. You and your team might take a
look at the following developer information found in Developer
Documentation:

*  the Building Guide --
https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/Building_Guide_AOO

* OpenOffice Architecture -- https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Architecture

* OpenOffice Development --
https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/DevGuide/OfficeDev/Office_Development

We will try to get back to you with some project ideas by the end of the
week (Friday) -- maybe even specifically related to Ubuntu. In the
meantime, please feel free to continue communication with this list.

It is looking at the language codes for the localized versions of AOO.
It is not looking at country of download.   But we do track that on
another page:

http://www.openoffice.org/stats/countries.html

That data was last updated in April.   It uses this Python script:

Re: Link to oooforum

[Alexandro Colorado]

Yup my idea is that you have an array with the spam users, perform a search
on them, and then fill out the page with the posts related to the spam
users, and just have the macros select all checkboxes and press the delete,
and go to the next page. That would allow you to get all the spam from that
user at least in a smaller process.

Well is not really coding in Javascript since greasemonkey takes care of
that. Remember that you only need to change the url for the page of the
query result. Greasemonkey has a script called AutoFill where you only need
to select the name value of the HTML control and modify it to be checked.
The next task is to press the Button control to delete, and the final step
is to go to the next query in time. Probably the URL will have a page like
?p=23 so is a matter of increments.

Sure it would. Otherwise we can't check whether the problem is with the

OpenOffice versions to see if we have a regression and so on.

Re: Is there a need for such a bug report related to a LO created odt-file?

Hi there,

The sender then sent me a doc-rendering which I could read into AOO.

Now, I would be able to supply that document (and the doc rendering) as an 
attachment to a bug

on the LO side?


An application should never crash and should not quit without a message 
to the user. That has to be fixed in Apache OpenOffice. So please write 
a bug report and attach the .odt document as LibreOffice has produced it 
and the .fodt file too.


The person, who sends it to you, should try to save the file not in "1.2 
Extended (recommended)" but in "1.2 Extended (compat mode)" or in "1.2" 
or even in "1.0/1.1". Then you will likely be able to open it without 
problems. Hi finds the saving format in Tools > Options > Load/Save >

 You can generated .IDX file from .dat file with th_gen_idx.pl script from 
hunspell  source package.
You need only Perl for  it.

Hello,

It's great to hear from you!
* We work primarily on unix machines - ubuntu specifically. IDEs we have
worked on include Eclipse, NetBeans and Aptana studio.
* I know git, but am not very experienced with it. I have worked briefly
with perforce.
* The course evaluation would be in the beginning of December, so that
gives us time till the end of November to complete the project.

If there is any more information I could provide you with, I'd be more than
glad to.
I'll be going through the link you've mentioned shortly. Once again, thank
you for your response.

Regards,
Deborah

Hello Deborah --
Thanks for contacting Apache OpenOffice. We'd love to have you contribute
to this project.  We will try to identify a specific task for your team.

First, I think we need more information from you to make this successful:

* please tell us more about your development environment -- OS, IDE, etc
* what is your experience with source version management tools? svn, git,
etc
* your semester ends "by November" meaning the end of November?

There are many references to open source participation available. Here's
one that gives a perspective from a participant's viewpoint that you may
find helpful.

Re: .IDX file for Thesaurus

[Marco A.G.Pinto]

"Please follow-up to the l10n list"?

Dear Andrea and team,

I sent it to both lists because it is a coding question relating 
proofing, so I am still not sure which ML is the best.


I was looking at the URL and it does have some small source code.

Unfortunately I have some problems understanding the code since I don't 
master the language.


Could someone please translate it for me in human language (the 
algorithm) so that I can code it in PureBasic?


I know that I am annoying with so many questions all the time, but I 
want to build the ultimate proofing tool so that it can be used by 
everyone and that it serves all needs.


Thanks!

Kind regards from your brother and friend,

I'm not sure that repository has a copy of the license, but my copy

Everything in that directory:  /files

So to get all the Serbian versions you would need to look here:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/openofficeorg.mirror/files/4.1.1/binaries/sr/stats/timeline

And then for the 4.1.0, 4.0.1 and 4.0.0 directories, and so on.

A simpler approach, if you need only language-level detail and don't
need the breakdown by language and OS, is to use this tool:

https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/openoffice/devtools/aoo-stats/detail-by-day.py

Also download the data file:
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/openoffice/devtools/aoo-stats/all.lst

Then you can run:

python detail-by-day.py all.lst 2012-05-07 2014-05-07 >out.csv

It will take a few hours to run, but you will get a CSV file with
download counts for each day.  There is a column for each language.

The output format will be similar to this file:

https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/openoffice/devtools/aoo-stats/100m.csv

-Rob

Re: Link to oooforum

[Andrew Douglas Pitonyak]

I am looking at iMacro, thanks for the suggestion. My initial attempts 
this morning have failed because it seems to want a concrete starting 
URL. So, when I recorded a script to delete the currently displayed 
spam, what it really recorded was "navigate to the current URL", now do 
what you want. Looks like I can probably set the search URL, try to 
scrape all of the results, and then I can probably use those results to 
navigate to each found SPAM message and delete it. That would at least 
allow me to remove a chunk at a time. If that works, then I can expand 
the macro. I suppose that a first step would be search, remove the first 
found. I could then "rinse and repeat" but it would be much faster to 
scrape all results first. It can take up to 60 seconds to delete a 
single spam (because the forum can run slow).


Do you think that I would have better luck automating with greasemonkey? 
I suppose that would be a reason to learn JavaScript. I mean, I have 
used JavaScript, but I would not say that I know Java Script. I know 
many languages, and when you know a bunch of languages already, and you 
need to simply make a change to existing code with a mostly standard 
syntax (ie, it is not something odd ball like APL), it does not take 
much to make minor bug fixes.

More accurately, the owner is generally non-responsive (he is really

The forum is currently hosted on machines that prevent him from granting
admin rights to the forum proper and I assume that he does not have
things properly virtualized to allow sufficient access to update the
forum proper (and no time to make this happen).

The problem with fighting the spam is that the moderators and "admins"
are fighting spammers that can compromise the old forum software at will
so with a volume of spam bots posting at will, it is a losing battle.

The owner told me on the phone that he was willing to do something about
this (like allow a transfer, or help, or something), but I understand
that he was not responsive when he was contacted again. When I last
called him just to see if he was alive (really, I thought he might have
died), he was surprised that the site had not been functional in about a
month and said that he had not seen my email to him. For all I know, it
was auto-filtered to spam.

I was just looking at the site, and, the first spammer listed had over
500 spams posted. The only way I have to remove spam is one thread at a
time. So, I would need to spend at least an hours (if I were able to
remove 1 thread every 6 seconds manually). That is a single spammer /
user. It would be more doable if I were able to simply remove every
message from a specific user, but I don't have that ability.

I know you both know, but for the benefit of the casual reader, we are
not talking about the official forum, but about a third-party forum
which is not under control of the project. We started some talks to
tell
the maintainers that we may help if needed, but we haven't come to a
conclusion yet. So the project does not have access to that forum and
can't promote users to moderators.

.IDX file for Thesaurus

[Marco A.G.Pinto]

Hello!

If you all well remember, my Proofing Tool GUI (PTG) software allows 
also to edit the Thesaurus by editing .DAT files.


But I have peeked into a a few extensions and they also have an .IDX 
file for the Thesaurus.


Does anyone know how the .IDX is generated so that I code it into PTG?

Thanks!
