Since we don't use any of the fancy features of serf, I'm thinking that the easy option might be best Hi I've ported our WebDAV content provider module from Serf to Curl. While it ended well, and several other bugs were found and fixed, it definitely wasn't the "easy option" Jim ;). Starting with conservative changes, it ended up needing total restructuring, and became more of a rewrite. The crashes were frequent and hung connections many, and I had to read up on the HTTP protocol, and read Curl and Serf's source code, but eventually I prevailed, and a clean elegant stable Curl WebDAV module emerged. The huge patch is attached for anyone wishing to review and test. Unless there are major objections, I'll push it in a couple of days. STATUS It builds and works well on FreeBSD and Windows. Most of the code was reused, and all the operations and semantics previously present with Serf, should have been preserved. Browsing WebDAV files and directories, loading files, overwriting them ("Save"), creating them ("Save As"), renaming and deleting them, all works. HTTP and HTTPS proxies work. Unlike Serf, Curl could also support SOCKS proxies (with minimal further changes), but AOO lacks that setting in the proxy UI and configuration. Authentication works, both to the destination server and to the proxy server. I've successfully tested Basic and Digest authentication. Curl supports every authentication method Serf does and more. HTTPS works, with a custom certificate verification function, using our own certificate store from NSS and its API (like the Serf code used). A bug was discovered (which is in the Serf implementation too) where self-signed certificates were being unconditionally rejected; apparently NSS wants to see that a copy of that certificate in its certificate chain parameter too. Now they work, and the user gets prompted to allow access. HTTPS and authentication can be used together on the same connection and work well, both bringing up their UI dialogs as needed. A bug was fixed where when username and password were both present in the URL (dav://user:pass@host/path), the code was trying to split them at the "@" instead of ":". Unnecessary base64 encoding and decoding was removed, when importing the TLS connection's certificates into our XSecurityEnvironment. They now come in directly as ASN.1 DER, and still work. The code was greatly restructured and cleaned up, as Curl's API is synchronous and blocking, with parameters set in advance instead of through many callbacks, which has allowed using short clear methods, and clean separation between the session and request classes. The WebDAV content provider has shrunk from 35 to 21 C++ files, 43 to 29 header files, and 19129 to 15991 lines of code. With WebDAV methods centralized and refactored into only 10-20 lines of code each, instead of scattered across 4 files, it is much more understandable and maintainable now. Curl is vastly more portable than Serf. We should build easily now even on OS/2. We can remain with existing build tools instead of needing scons or cmake just to build Serf. 3 now unused dependencies were removed: apr, apr-util, and serf. Serf isn't so bad. APR's pool idea is an ingenious way of doing resource management in C. However Curl has excellent documentation, guides, examples, and detailed explanations and even example code for each setting, while Serf has no documentation. Serf might be worth it in a project that already uses APR a lot, but we don't. Instead of the historical, crippled forms of logging like OSL_TRACE(), which don't appear in release builds, I've made it use the newer com.sun.star.logging UNO component (wrapped in comphelper::EventLogger), which was inspired by java.util.logging, with configurable verbosity levels, handlers (file and console) and output formats (plain, csv), and importantly, which produces output in release builds too. I've also made it so that on LogLevel::FINEST, Curl's verbose mode is enabled and Curl's debug output is also logged through us, with descriptions of what Curl is doing, and logs of all HTTP traffic including headers and bodies, before encryption and after decryption in the case of HTTPS, giving us tremendous detail that can be used for troubleshooting problems.

You have to do a new search or not include the list_id in the URL to get the current results. At least that is the way I'm understanding it. Now my questions is: When we provide a URL like this in a release blog post or announcement should we do a new search and use the list_id in the URL so we have a snapshot in time or not include it so each user gets an up-to-date result? For example, if an issue is changed from fixed to reopened, do we want that issue to appear in the list after that or not? It might be easier on the database if we use the list_id at release time so everyone that follows the link isn't creating a new entry as long as we're okay with the snapshot in time list. as we present a software release which is fix when published, so it cannot be changed afterwards, I would prefer to deliver a list of its issues which is also fixed.

The correct definition maybe can be FR_oci_leng FR_oci_gsc But this isn't a ISO 639 code. Really I don't have a good solution for that and I'm not sure what are the diferences between the diferent dialects. If you defines a code OCI_fr you need to update the oc_FR spell checker. In my case I prefer use oc_ES to standarize with the old aplications. But I'm not sure what is the best choice to define it in libreoffice. You can decide at your own criterion, oc_ES or oci_ES.

I don't how difference Aranese is from Gascon, nor how different either of those are from Occitan. The primary issue is ISO 639-3 Code OCI, which is for Occitan, and the various dialects. A spell checker for Aranese will conflict with a spell checker for Occitan. (I am saying that, based on working with spell checkers for various languages of Southern Africa.) LibreOffice currently supports Occitan as a language/local. My suggestion is creating OCI_fr, OCI_ad, OCI_es, and maybe OCI_it as locales. Get together with users of other dialects/languages that are classified under OCI, and work up something that is acceptable to everybody, but still allows them to use the grammar and spell checkers. Go to http://www.it46.se/localegen/select_lang.php to create the locales. Then either go to https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/buglist.cgi and file a bug requesting creation of the respective locales, or email the xml, and I'll do that. The _only_ reason I'm not creat

Am 15.01.22 um 15:05 schrieb Matthias Seidel: Since there were no public information from me until this "project" was successfully launched on the last minute in parallel with Windows 11, I want to give some details (now that I have time): Microsoft introduced the possibility to publish "classic" Windows programs via their Microsoft Store app. This was a new feature for Windows 11 and is now also available for some time on Windows 10. So what you download and install via Microsoft Store app is an unmodified binary, identical to what we distribute via SourceForge. The only requirement from Microsoft were to install AOO totally "silent". This needed some parameters [1] and a minor change in the installation of the MSVC runtimes [2]. Downloads point to the Apache Download server [3] because we had issues with the SourceForge mirrors.

I am not ashamed of being identified as a (very small, relatively unimportant) contributor to the AOO project and I suggest that ANYONE who is wishes to adopt this underhanded, secretive approach, should step away from the project.

If the community wishes to disclose all of the moderators that would be an acceptable outcome. I read your words, which are the same as you and other PMC members have previously stated, but I still do not read any explanation as to the rational of why moderators should hold any more of an exclusive or covert role within the ASF. Let's just put this down to my natural stupidity and end this thread, because there is nothing to be gained by perusing the subject. normally I would agree.

Knowledge that should actually be known and discussed within the entire community. Sorry I don't know what you mean with "inside knowledge". Some tasks have to be handled by the PMC only (e.g., people issues, binding release voting, trademark) . This is the rule that comes from the ASF itself. So please excuse me, but I am not interested in secret talks with the PMC. And I've no interest to talk to you in private about topic(s) that affects actually more people. Or what do you expect from me? We both talk and I take it further to someone else, then further and further? I hope that this is not the thing you have in mind.

To migrate it back into OpenOffice.git I am at -1 because OpenOffice Code + Build environment is already hard to learn. Especially for new commers. It is better to cluster by topics.

Please review. +1, maybe can we have some icons in front of a menu point? like the ASF feather in front of the ASF? The feather in front of “The ASF” is possible. And maybe an indication which menu point we currently see. Maybe an arrow? (if you visit the link and you click on General you would see a -> in front of the menu point "About".) I’m counting on bootstrap for the nav menus and I don’t think that is at all easy. It would likely require keeping information about what menu a page is part of in the page along with making sure that the page is on the menu. I thought of something like this pseudocode: if (window.location.href = this.dropdown-item.href) then this.css = "selected" else this.css = "unselected"? I get your idea and it could be a way to do it and there is a way to make bootstrap menu items inactive. There may be some issues with the comparison as the window.location.href is fully qualified while we do not want to use fully qualified urls for the dropdown-item hrefs (makes testing the site painful.) Hmm, bummer seems not that easy. So maybe something like: const boxes = documentui.dropdown-menu.show.querySelectorAll('#dropdown-item'); boxes.forEach(box => { if (window.location.href = box.dropdown-item.href) then box.css = "selected" else box.css = "unselected"? } Well something along those lines. I really suck at JS, i just try to write something so you have a better Idea what I thought of. Could well (likely) be this is rubbish. So for the pages I tried this approach seem to be pretty neat. Pages that are not listed on the menue, maybe it is the qwuestion where they belong, anyhow. Actually, I would want to learn how to customize Bootstrap 5 first, but I’m not going to do that right now. There were numerous tweaks needed. The current site did not catch the rename of volunteer@ to recruitment@. Unless there are objections I plan to squash & merge after I get the mobile view better. I tried earlier today on my phone and it did look promising already. The Desktop does also look great. Do you have an android phone, or iPhone? I tried from an Android phone. Sony Xperia XA2 and now Samsung S8 to be exact. I use a Firefox browser. Now I see a hamburger menu, nice. However the feather makes the menu look unaligned. it is great on the desktop. I am not a gui developer so I am not sure what is state of the art on hamburger menus is, but i would intend the other menus, with the goal that the text starts always at same point. IMO the feather is good in the hamburger menu. All of the ASF menu items leave the site. I’m done with UI work for now. It is time to update content. See https://github.com/apache/openoffice-project/blob/preview/refresh/PAGES.md All The Best, Dave I really like the fact that it incorporates the UI approach we are using. Thanks!

How many pages are 'not maintained'? the default set has ~40 pages. But I haven't counted the total amount of words or sentences. Depending on the extend of the pages, we can adopt a translate service (which will have some cost attached). For example to translate 100 pages of similar character length using the yandex translate api will cost $5.00/month (assuming USD). Hm, costs are always not a good argument. OpenOffice is made by volunteers. The same should apply to the creation and maintenance of webpages or documentation in general. I don't know the quality of translated languages of Yandex or others. But I know Google Translate and its quality is ... improvable. ;-) Otherwise perhaps a list of these pages can be left for those that are new recruits, or looking for something to do. So, if they chose too, they can spend some time working on localizations or translations. They can then use a translate service (for free) to convert from the sources to the localization language. This may result in poor quality translation, but enough for people to get the general idea, and a good starting point for native language speakers to modify pages. As written previously the pages are unmaintained for years. There are no volunteers that would take care of it. So, translating a part of it and then others can do the remaining stuff will not come true. Very seldom we get a mail that someone has seen a message like you can see here in the red box [1]. We give them a few hints and how and where to start with translation and then ... noting more. Thats all. But honestly, I have no idea of the scale of the localization pages. The problem is that th

I'm not a core developer, so I don't know the details. However, renaming such essential keywords like "INCLUDE" and "LIB" is indeed a heavy change.

Depending on the extend of the pages, we can adopt a translate service (which will have some cost attached). For example to translate 100 pages of similar character length using the yandex translate api will cost $5.00/month (assuming USD). Hm, costs are always not a good argument. OpenOffice is made by volunteers. The same should apply to the creation and maintenance of webpages or documentation in general. I don't know the quality of translated languages of Yandex or others. But I know Google Translate and its quality is ... improvable. ;-) Otherwise perhaps a list of these pages can be left for those that are new recruits, or looking for something to do. So, if they chose too, they can spend some time working on localizations or translations. They can then use a translate service (for free) to convert from the sources to the localization language. This may result in poor quality translation, but enough for people to get the general idea, and a good starting point for native language speakers to modify pages. As written previously the pages are unmaintained for years. There are no volunteers that would take care of it. So, translating a part of it and then others can do the remaining stuff will not come true. Very seldom we get a mail that someone has seen a message like you can see here in the red box [1]. We give them a few hints and how and where to start with translation and then ... noting more. Thats all. But honestly, I have no idea of the scale of the localization pages. The problem is that there is nobody who can take care of these pages. The effort for a few or even one person is enormous. I mean the project people. Volunteers of course would takeover only one language. I don't want to be seen as carrier o
