I read that as only referring to the Java 8 SE binaries specifically.
If I'm reading this right, users using a Java 9 or Java 10 SDK will
still be fine. That just means we have an onus on us to make sure
things work with the latest versions of the SDK.

I just want to say, this makes me very happy. I regret that I haven't

Unless there's some compelling technical reason for keep SVN, of which
I am unaware, I am +1 on switching to Git. If nothing else, from an
"optics" perspective it keeps potential new contributors from looking
at the project and thinking "SVN? WTF? Why is this project using
obsolete tech like that?
Yep, I ran into that as well. In my case, just doing a quick "sudo
dnf -y install Orbit2 Orbit2-devel" took care of that.

I'm trying to build on a Fedora 24 box and am running into an error I
haven't been
able to resolve. Any help is much appreciated.
When doing the ./configure step, I get this:

checking whether to enable GConf support... yes
checking for GCONF..
I like this idea... 4.1.3 and 4.1.4 in the near-term, and then 4.2.0 in
early 2017. Feels like a good rhythm to aim for.

Sure, I don't claim it's a perfect analogy between "their" world and the
world of F/OSS.
But I think the broad point generalizes well enough to apply to us:

find your

Marketing gurus Jack Trout and Steve Rivkin wrote a book titled

its message has broad applicability. I think it's applicable, and somewhat
important, to us.

Welcome to the project, Ed. Don't sweat the lack of C++ experience. Not
everything is in C++, and
you can pick up the C++ knowledge as you go. I'm in a little bit of the

Wow, just wow. I have to say, I think even broaching this topic is a

This isn't a competition to be "won" or "lost". AOO and LO aren't really

AOO is for people who want an awesome office suite that's licensed under

license. Two different audiences, two different projects.
