Re: [Discussion] Would we enable volunteers that develop extensions

[Mechtilde]

Hello Peter,

I try to build the "extensions" which can be used with AOO Base like
reportbuilder and mysql-connector.

I also try to build the pdf-importer.

IMO you nedd the whole build to get them

Regards

Mechtilde

[Discussion] Would we enable volunteers that develop extensions

[Peter Kovacs]

I have a question. How much willing are we to support extensions.

I mean we have here a voice recognition questions, there is the 
reporting tool or wiki extension.


We already thinking on creating repos for reporting tool or the wiki 
extensions.


But how do we deal with those topics on the organisatorical level?

Do we form I do not know how to name them, task force around them? Do 
the people who whish to be delevop these functions do this in an outside 
project (independant if this is a Apache project or github self 
sufficient hosted)



I would opt that we agree on some form to enable volunteer to use the 
project infrastructure and provide them with a stronger feeling that 
they are part of the project even if they are only working on an 
extension of none core features.


This makes it easier to bring the community together. I mean the wording 
3rd parties bring a lot of discussion and the need to explain things, to 
the table.



I am just wondering what everyone else thinks.

All the best

Peter

Re: Voice to text

[Peter Kovacs]

Puh, you ask very generic. Quick answer: I do not think that the project 
defines this as a "core feature".


See rejected references:

https://bz.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=84997

https://bz.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=71542

But they are pretty old. One survived bug report survived the request 
(mainly because Hagar seemed to directly confirm it, I guess ;) )


https://bz.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=85058

And the related discussions  on the forum:

https://forum.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=2483

https://forum.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=634

https://forum.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?f=49&t=1358


There are extensions that turn up through google:

https://extensions.openoffice.org/en/project/speechoo-dictation-pad-openofficeorg

https://extensions.openoffice.org/en/project/evoice

But these seem only to add only basic features. I guess even the OS 
based might supply the same features:


https://www.ubuntupit.com/best-open-source-speech-recognition-tools-for-linux/


My quick assessment:

The current state is it is very rudimentary implemented.


All the best

Peter

Re: Problem since inställning MacOS Big Sur

[Dylan Pham]

Hello,

There is a release candidate that you can test. Please see this link
https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/openoffice/4.1.9-RC1/binaries/

Choose the binary that's appropriate for your language. I've tested on my
macOS 11.1 and it works fine.

Sorry, not in BZ itself. I've looked into the admin settings but 
cannot find a suitable option.


I believe our old (and I don't know how old!) configuration was using 
these settings:

https://www.bugzilla.org/docs/2.18/html/components.html

"The Owner, QA Contact, and Reporter will get email when new bugs are 
created in this Component and when these bugs change. Default Owner and 
Default QA Contact fields dictate the default assignments".


Now, I've never administered Bugzilla so I have no idea where one can 
set those (or even if this is enabled in our current instance), but if 
that can help...


thanks for the hint. In the BZ version we are using it's still possible 
to set a default assignee.


However, also here everything is as it should. Every component has 
issues@ as default assignee.
