Would you mind trying to download from the following sourceforge mirror?
https://netix.dl.sourceforge.net/project/openofficeorg.mirror/4.1.5/binaries/en-US/Apache_OpenOffice_4.1.5_Linux_x86-64_install-rpm_en-US.tar.gz

I didn't pick it on purpose, it was the first download link I got from
the download page. I tried 3 times from it and the connection was always
interrupted midway (between 10 MB and 118MB).
Using another mirror (netcologne) was okay.

Best regards,
Emanuele

 Well... we NOWHERE, and I repeat NOWHERE, advertise the URL

https://www.google.com/search?q=openofficegws_rd=ssl

1st result is: https.
Why?
Probably because since August 2014 google uses https as a ranking signal:

So, even if you do not advertise the URL, google does it for you, and

Fwd: Warning from dev@openoffice.apache.org

[Emanuele]

Hi,

sorry to bother, I receive messages like the following every once in a
while (the last one was a couple of months ago).

Looks pretty similar to:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-8433

I'm not sure if it is generalized or just me.

Is there anything I can do on my side?
Is it worth reporting when it happens?

Thanks.

Best regards,
Emanuele

 Since our web pages are now under ALv2, I'm not sure if we can include
 Creative Commons licensed objects in them. See --

 http://www.apache.org/foundation/license-faq.html#GPL

 We'd need to ask legal.

 Coloring the cells is certainly a simple way to go assuming it doesn't
 make things too busy.



http://glyphicons.com/license/

So, the free version is distributed under CC BY 3.0:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LEGAL-96
so apparently still open, *but*:

 GLYPHICONS Halflings are also a part of Bootstrap from Twitter, and
they are released under the same license as Bootstrap.

that means: MIT, which falls under category A according to

 I have not discovered a way to incorporate page level styles into a markup
 document aside our site-wide css located in css/ooo.css which is the style
 definitions for the whole site. If someone else knows any tricks, please
 let us know.

Speak in general is kind of difficult, and I may have misunderstood what
you want to achieve, but, speaking general, I can see two ways:
1) (preferred by me) in each mdtext file you should be able to specify
an bodytag that becomes an id on the body tag, with that you don't need
to use any page-specific css file, you can just prefix your styles with
#idofthepage and those will be applied only for that page,
2) (a bit of an extreme solution) create a new path in lib/path.pm for
the specific page/directory/pattern, create a new template for it and
add the necessary files to the header.

 That's why I was pushing for a way to keep content and style
 separated. mdtext is not a good way to store content since you are
 already setting a format. The ideal measure was to have this on a json
 file (or xml) and let Javascript generate the table (using loops and
 stuff). That way it doesnt matter if its a table or a list or an HTML
 control.

Content has to be associated in a way or another with a structure, and
mdtext gives exactly the general structure the text should have.
Then CSS defines the style.

But the md used by the Apache CMS is extended and supports some more
stuff.
For example, if I understood the problem right, you can do the same
thing with markdown:

 Language  | Website | Distribution
-- | 
[Afar (aa)](/aa/)   | {.fa fa-ban} |   {.fa fa-warning}

etc.

Let me put again a reference to what I think is the extended markdown
the CMS supports:

hmm...
Probably we are looking at the problem from two very different
perspectives.
Markdown allows to define styles and ids in the markup.
It allows to use HTML (provided you don't put markdown inside html
blocks, that's query a limitations at times, but it can be worked
around) so you can add additional styles.
Yes, it doesn't allow to add classes or ids to certain elements (e.g. ul
and tables are the two I know for sure). This could be worked around
using the CMS.

 The structure there should have been something like a JSON string
 carrying the values for country, link, state, localization, Javascript
 could then parse that data, and put it on some table structure and
 loop through it.
 Something like this: http://blog.andremakram.com/?p=7

Sorry, I probably missed a piece of discussion, so I hope you don't mind
a question: why do you want use a JSON strings to build a table that is
already built in HTML or markdown? (Genuine question.)
I mean: I used in the download page example a json-like block, because
the resulting table was an expansion of the block (multiplied by the
number of languages IIRC), but in that case the json string and the
table would be a 1:1 match (i.e. any cell of the table would require a
corresponding entry in the json array), so I can't see exactly the
advantage of one against the other.

 please have a look. The links 2, 3 and 4 do not display correctly:

 http://ooo-site.staging.apache.org/projects/native-lang.html

Most likely is because of the bits of html present (the div
class=Acta1 and corresponding closing div wrapping the text), judging
from the fact that only the links inside this block are not processed.

 Any special need to create this as MDTEXT? Otherwise I would suggest
 to turn it back into HTML.

The reason I converted the text to md is because I find the table much
easier to handle in md rather than in html (actually it's still a bit
confusing, I should have added some spacing to align things better), but
up to you. ;)

 /download/other.html

 According to our Google Analytics, this page has quite a number of
 references, including using it as a convenient way to show what languages
 we have releases for -- http://www.openoffice.org/projects/native-lang.html.


 Should we retool this based on the new changes? Or

 ...  even without js, to just provide basic information like the
 native-lang name, and links over to the latest binary area for that
 language on SourceForge?

 Example:
 German (de)  -
 http://sourceforge.net/projects/openofficeorg.mirror/files/4.1.0/binaries/de/

 or 


Out of curiosity: the use of javascript to build the table is because
you prefer javascript or a plain html would be good as well?
Because after my digging last time, I'm pretty sure (well, I mostly did
it) that it's possible to generate the entire table during the build
adding few subs to view.pm and using some trick.
For example I used a piece of JSON enclosed in kind of HTML tags that I
then parsed and converted into the table.
You can see the code at [1] it doesn't work entirely, for example the
SDK table is not built and the version in the title is not added, but
the rest is more or less working.

I'm showing you the code, not the result, because the result is an
almost exact copy of the table you already know (provided you have
javascript enabled), only in pure HTML (no javascript required). The
difference is that it is generated while building the site, and being
the generation the point of my comment, I published only that part.

 That said, the reason for the table is because we werent that open to
 use Javascript. We would still argue that we have a noscript code.

 Regardless if its XML, JSON or HTML or even a bash script to
 autogenerate the HTML from a sqlite datasource.

Not sure what you want to say here: is it fine with you to use js?
Then it's fine with me as well. ;-)

 Do you mean in terms of distribution or the web sites are

 which could be edited to add a distribution status instead of the Level

Oh in that sense, yes, I agree.

The current structure is a bit funny to deal with, yes you have the file
where you need it, but it may result in conflicts and it may not even
be so easy to find what you are looking for (it's just my feeling
though, maybe because I'm used to work with a single huge file).
See the attachment with the cleaned up code and the comments (idea
borrowed from another project I'm contributing to).

I noticed there is the possibility to specify an id for the body tag,
that is cool and may already help to target specific pages with custom
styles if needed.

I wonder also about the local websites (I mean the different
languages). I see... several variants in respect to both design and
content. Is there the intention to move them to a standard appearance or
just let them be with whatever style they have?

And Chrome has an emulation feature (

quite useful as well.


 Every small resolution has just a horizontal scrollbar and no vertical

I was just being very picky: there was a range (between about 750px and

Yeah, I didn't explain very well what the problem was. Sorry.

 we should look at how some of the underlying pages render if we moved
 the placement of the top navigator items. My opinion -- regardless how
 many elements from a newer design we incorporate into other pages, I
 think the topnav element should be at the same place in all pages.

I would say that as much consistent as possible is the best.
The website at the moment has several different styles. It could be the
opportunity to harmonize some of them.

The last file I used in my experiments was 484 lines (only for the home
page though) including the media queries to support the responsive
design, and while writing this email I went back and removed some
unnecessary code trimming down the css to 378 lines including comments
to describe where the styles apply.

If bootstrap is used for the general lookfeel, then the additional css
needed should really be just the bare minimum necessary to change colors
and tweak stuff, I think.

Emanuele

Re: [WWW] home page/website(?) restyle

[Emanuele]

Hi,

I'm trying to understand a bit the way the CMS builds the site in order
to see how to put everything together.
I think I got the basics. At least I think I understood what file does
what (mostly).

I am now looking at navtop.
If I got it right, the navtop.mdtext is parsed as markdown (and it
generates an ul) and the result is put into the content block in
navigator.html.
markdown generates plain html without classes and/or other attributes.

Bootstrap, on the contrary, requires to assign quite a bit of classes,
because it relies on that to apply styles and attach javascript
events/effects.
So, the question is: is there any way to apply classes to the ul and
li elements of navtop without having to use raw html?
Yeah, I could use javascript, though it would be better to have
everything in place in the html.

Best regards,
emanuele

 ah, too bad. :-(

Well, I'll try to do something, but sure what. ;)

 For example, another thing I was considering is the separation of the
 menu and the breadcrumbs with a menu fixed-top and the breadcrumbs where
 the are now:
 http://testing.elkarte.it/testing/ooo/index_fix.html

 Fixed-top is already good. To get the height of the header reduced and
 also fixed would be great.

hmm... I personally don't like too much very tall fixed headers, they
tend to take up a lot of vertical space.


 Of course our logo has to be put somewhere 

The logo could go in the fixed menu for example, on the left, though in
that case, I'd reduce the number of entries of the menu itself because
at certain resolutions (from 800px wide up to 1024 and maybe something
more depending on the size of the logo) the menu would go on two lines,
and it doesn't really look good IMO.

Mixing the two, what about some moving stuff around while scrolling?
http://testing.elkarte.it/ooo/index_scroll.html


 Are the css compiled somehow as well, or are they in the home.css,
 ooo.css, etc. files?

 No, they are plain and will be just applied to the webpage.

Okay, well, in my example I collected the bits from the various places
into a single file (it's just about 400 lines, so not much to deal
with), since most of them were not necessary.

It seems I'm getting the grasp of how the website works, now I have just
to understand how to enable SSI on my localhost.
/me goes read some documentation on the matter... or at least some examples.

Anyway, if you see anything you want from what I did, feel free to pick

everything should be fine).

 Maybe good or bad. But it's definitely a step back as the buttons are
 just colored but now we have a graphic. This would be gone which is,
 hm,
 not good looking... ;-)

 In the buttons of course one could reuse all the graphics, but still use
 Bootstrap buttons for the shape and to highlight the active choice.

If the idea is to use bootstrap it may be worth re-adapt the entire HTML
according to the bootstrap way.
It will be a pain at the beginning (it basically means rewrite a lot of
stuff), but I suppose it would be an advantage in the mid/long term.

For example, another thing I was considering is the separation of the
menu and the breadcrumbs with a menu fixed-top and the breadcrumbs where

 ah, yes, that would work.

 The current divs do not look bad (actually, they look nice!) on the
 current homepage, while they don't fit well in the new proposal;

It would be nice to know why. ;) (Of course just because if you tell
me the why I may try to understand how to fix it.)
The very first time the hovers were a bit random (they didn't always
reach the bottom border), in the second version they are more
consistent (except the last two because the underline is not on the
li, but on the ul, but that's a detail that can be fixed), if it is
what you mean.

Re: New design of download page

[Emanuele]

Marcus (OOo) wrote:
 http://www.elkarte.it/testing/ooo/

 that looks very good:

 - The carousel is something that we really need.
 - The drop-down menu item Product is a good idea to save some space.
 - The 3-column-design is not too wide.
   With shortening the text it can look even better.

You mean the text in the three columns is too close?
It may depend on the resolution (try squeezing and enlarging the page,
the layout changes accordingly). Your seems to be 1280, right? (From
your previous email.)
Try having a look now (hard refresh to clean the cache).


 PS:
 Please note that there is a difference between the page above the news
 carousel and the other part. From the technical part we have to make a
 difference how to update both parts in general.
The part above the carousel (including the carousel) depends on
bootstrap ( http://getbootstrap.com/ ).. actually I started including
bootstrap for the carousel and then I went ahead and replaced the menu
as well. :P

 Okay, is rather different from the current layout but is also a bit
 responsive (just to please everybody :P).
 I didn't spend much time on the colors and alignment of elements, just
 on the general layout of the page.

 That's OK. We can see perfectly what you try to express.

 And it looks like if you want to do more and volunteer to do this
 little refresh. Am I guessing right? ;-)

I had a bit of a hard time trying to checkout ooo-site, it was hanging
up with:
svn: E175012: Connection timed out
now it seems it finished properly...

It's just me looking at the wrong place or /ooo-site/ doesn't use
templates like /site/, but pages are created one by one?
Because the changes I did, require each page to have stuff added to the
head (jQuery and bootstrap). It may be a bit more work than what you
were foreseeing.

 We should gather a few ideas, do a little research about other website

 working good.

I'm not at all a designer, I just had few minutes of free time and I

I can't say to be an expert (and I may be badly reading these number,

I mean, I have seen that scale (20+ GB) only on a forum with a database
the size of 40+ GB (with some 4/5/600 users online simultaneously).

The current db size of the en forum (judging by the number of posts)
should be around... ~1/1.5 GB. And summing up all the other forums you'd
have no more than 2 or 3 GB.
Okay, a couple of GB of physical memory may be not much to handle all of
them, but 20+ seems a lot.

 yesterday I installed OpenOffice 4.0.0 retaining 3.4.1. Copying a wiki

 crashing point lies within the highlighted area (text made with Writer

 I cannot crash OpenOffice 4 by copying and pasting text from
 http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Postmoderne
 (either the portion you described or the whole page). Maybe you need
 to give some more details. Also check if CTRL-Shift-V (Paste Special,
 Unformatted) works.

Win 7.
AOO 4.0 German and Italian.
Just installed.
Profile migrated from 3.4 (I think, I was not exactly sure of what I
clicked).
Internet Explorer 10 and Opera 11.something.
Empty document.

Copied the text in the side bar of the page
http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Postmoderne
Starting from In anderen Sprachen to Links bearbeiten (included).

Pasted from the menu and with ctrl+v = crash.

Trying with smaller chunks, the problematic text seems to be: ਪੰਜਾਬੀ
http://pa.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E0%A8%89%E0%A9%B1%E0%A8%A4%E0%A8%B0%E0%A8%86%E0%A8%A7%E0%A9%81%E0%A8%A8%E0%A8%BF%E0%A8%95%E0%A8%A4%E0%A8%BE%E0%A8%B5%E0%A8%BE%E0%A8%A6
(the one before Polski).
Copy  pasting that piece is enough to crash AOO 4.0 Writer or Impress,
while Calc works fine if pasting not in edit mode (i.e. not pasting in
the formula bar, pasting in the bar results in a crash as well).

HTH.
