Apologies for the late communication.
The forums are being updated from phpBB 3.0.9 to 3.3.7.
Differences so far:
1. The subsilver2 theme is no longer available.
2. Analytics are removed due to new ASF privacy policies. We can add back
analytics that are compliant in the next weeks.
3. Search Display code is changed and I could not see how add
({NEW_POST_COUNT}) into styles/prosilver/template/index_body.html
4. /style.php is no longer included.
5. /app.php is new.
6. /includes/ucp/ucp_register.php will need to be tested on the French forum.
7. /feed.php is reorganized and it was not clear how to add the customized
rel=“alternate” to one of the links.
This doesn’t seem bad.
Language packs were found and AOO customizations are added.
I expect to finish late tonight - when ready there will be a test url.
Once the forums are put into maintenance the following will happen:
1. Make sure all the files and images that have been uploaded are copied.
2. Dumps of the mysql databases will be copied over.
3. Forum databases will be updated
4. Forum admins will have a chance to test.
5. Once live we’ll triage any issues.
Bidouille has access to the VM … any other forum admins who are already
OpenOffice committers may request access.
A warning - this same VM hosts the wiki and the mysql databases.
I’ll be offline for a few hours before returning to this work and to answer any
questions.

Windows version: ProgIDs and typelibs for OLE/COM ?
Curious about the Windows version of AOO and its support via OLE/COM: * What are the ProgIds to use to automate AOO? Found the following ones with "office", "star" in them: G:\tmp\orx\ole\oleinfo\work>listProgIds.rex office # 415/2226: ProgId: [Dropbox.OfficeAddIn] # 815/2226: ProgId: [Lync.UCOfficeIntegration] # 918/2226: ProgId: [Microsoft.Office.List.OLEDB] # 1193/2226: ProgId: [OcOffice.FormRegionContext] # 1194/2226: ProgId: [OcOffice.OcForms] # 1195/2226: ProgId: [OcOffice.OneNoteHelper] # 1196/2226: ProgId: [Office.awsdc] # 1197/2226: ProgId: [Office.LocalSyncClient] # 1198/2226: ProgId: [OfficeCompatible.Application.x86] # 1199/2226: ProgId: [OfficeTheme] # 1278/2226: ProgId: [PDFMaker.OfficeAddin] # 1560/2226: ProgId: [soffice.StarCalcDocument.6] # 1561/2226: ProgId: [soffice.StarDrawDocument.6] # 1562/2226: ProgId: [soffice.StarImpressDocument.6] # 1563/2226: ProgId: [soffice.StarMathDocument.6] # 1564/2226: ProgId: [soffice.StarWriterDocument.6] # 1928/2226: ProgId: [TFCOfficeShim.Connect] # 1929/2226: ProgId: [TFCOfficeShim.ControlHost.14] # 1930/2226: ProgId: [TFCOfficeShim.GetAddIn] G:\tmp\orx\ole\oleinfo\work>listProgIds.rex star # 175/2226: ProgId: [bhWM2Core.ctlServerStartscreen] # 179/2226: ProgId: [bhWM2Core.ctlStartscreen] # 319/2226: ProgId: [com.sun.star.ServiceManager] # 772/2226: ProgId: [JavaWebStart.isInstalled] # 1560/2226: ProgId: [soffice.StarCalcDocument.6] # 1561/2226: ProgId: [soffice.StarDrawDocument.6] # 1562/2226: ProgId: [soffice.StarImpressDocument.6] # 1563/2226: ProgId: [soffice.StarMathDocument.6] # 1564/2226: ProgId: [soffice.StarWriterDocument.6] Trying to get at the published interfaces for e.g. "soffice.StarWriterDocument.6" does not return any published methods, properties, events and constants as is the case with MS Office. So wondering whether there are other ProgIDs for AOO on Windows registered that one should use instead? (Usually there are version independent ProgIDs which seems to not be the case here.) * Is there an AOO typelib available that would supply the published interfaces usable via OLE? If so what would be the name and how would one install them? ---rony

Maintenance on the Forums is completed!
The Forums are now at phpBB 3.3.7 which was released March 17, 2023. The prior
version was 3.0.9 released July 10, 2011.
Very, very happy. Future updates should be much easier. I will follow up with

2. We need to find forum administrators to replace imacat for each forum.

Known work to do:
