didn't make the list this year but it might find space again in future.

No OpenOffice Devroom at FOSDEM 2023

[Andrea Pescetti]

You've often seen me spamming this list in the last week of the year in 
recent years calling for FOSDEM submissions, but I am not doing it this 
time... since there will be no OpenOffice devroom at FOSDEM 2023.


With the return to physical events, rooms are limited and FOSDEM tries 
to rotate projects, so OpenOffice, despite the request we filed, didn't 
make the list this year but it might find space again in future.


We should be grateful to the FOSDEM organizers for having offered us a 
room for several years, without requesting (or receiving, for that 
matter) any money or financial benefit from the Apache OpenOffice project.


Still, there will be other ASF projects represented in different 
devrooms and possibly an ASF booth too... so there are still reasons to 
consider attending FOSDEM

Re: Call for Proposals: Apache OpenOffice Devroom at FOSDEM 2021 (online)

[Andrea Pescetti]

Last call: don't be shy! Let's take FOSDEM as an occasion for an overall 
"state of the project" where we inform each other on the current status 
and ways forward.


All talks will be pre-recorded as Peter wrote, so no problem with 
timezones; but after each talk we will have a live "questions and 
answers" session for community talk.


Suggestions of what could be added for a more complete schedule (I won't 
add names, but if you recognize yourself in the description please go 
ahead and file a proposal immediately, as the schedule will need to be 
defined on 31 Dec; see https://s.apache.org/openoffice-fosdem-2021-cfp 
for details).


- Releases: How we do them, possible improvements, what's coming in 4.2.0

- Recruitment: ideas on how to improve it

- History of a first contribution (issues with documentation, with first 
build, filing patches)


- Build system migration

- MWiki current status

- Reviewing patches on Github: our policies for testing, merging...

- Website migrations away from CMS (I see a proposal by Dave, but I read 
it as an overview of our ancillary sites, not the two that were moved 
away from the CMS; the migration itself would be an interesting topic 
for another presentation).


- whatever you feel presenting; and no problem if it is more questions 
than answers.


Important: please make sure you file your presentation/event in the 
"Apache OpenOffice" track, as otherwise it will be easy for us to miss 
it when preparing the final schedule.


Answering to Matthias below:

Wouldn't it be useful to have a link to the CfP also here:
https://fosdem.org/2021/schedule/tracks/


Yes, I sent it to FOSDEM just a few minutes after sending it here, then 
I sent it the week after that... but apparently it was stuck in some 
anti-spam filter until I let them notice again and then they published 
the link. They fixed it about two weeks ago.

  Andrea.

Re: Call for Proposals: Apache OpenOffice Devroom at FOSDEM 2021 (online)

[Peter Kovacs]

Hi all,

I have also entered a lecture. I would like to try if we can use the 
event to proceed to use as a public think tank.


The talk will be prerecorded, and so I can focus on the discussion with 
interested folks.


Title: The future of Base

Here is my abstract:

In this talk I will be talking about base. Base is the Database focused 
Application within Apache OpenOffice.
We will start of with a short Description where Base comes from, and 
what the Idea behind base has been.

I will sum up discussions that have taken place on development Mailinglist.
And I would like to take some visions up from the previous discussions 
and talk a bit about what Base

would needs if we would go into the direction of analytics and big data.


All the Best

Peter

We can use the video conference room as we did for the anniversary.

FOSDEM 2021 Apache OpenOffice devroom (online)

[Andrea Pescetti]

Good news: FOSDEM organizers decided to allocate an entire day for 
Apache OpenOffice next year.


https://fosdem.org/2021/schedule/tracks/

It is now tentatively scheduled for February 6th, online, free 
attendance; talks will have to be pre-recorded.


I see this as an opportunity for a larger-than-usual gathering, since 
it's online and everybody will be able to attend and talk. An own 
devroom means an entire day available for Apache OpenOffice talks, so it 
will be an occasion for many people to speak and I encourage everybody 
to apply (a call for talks is coming by next weekend).


Of course I had restated the availability for a shared Open Document 
Editors devroom, but apparently the logistics this year allowed 
organizers to give us a dedicated event.


More news as soon as FOSDEM organizers distribute them.

Regards,
  Andrea.

I had replied to this but I'm not sure it was delivered to the list.

I am already in Brussels, I've arrangements for the entire day today 
(dinner included) but I can monitor Slack in case.


You will find me (of course) in the Open Document Devroom tomorrow most 
of the day, as I'm one of the organizers; but I'm leaving Saturday

Just a note that, based on the number of submissions, we could have 
accommodated a few more (though possibly a bit shorter) talks. I really 
can't understand why people do not submit more proposals... The devroom 
could have more content and still maintain a good quality level.


Anyway, looking forward to meeting everybody in Brussels!

OK, if the devroom is on Saturday, I would prefer a time slot for the

I plan to be at FOSDEM too, as usual (well, except 2019 when weather 
conditions made me impossible for me to get to Brussels). But I'll be in 
the devroom most of the time on Saturday, and I still must decide 
whether I'm staying on Sunday too.

but remember that the deadline for submitting talks for the Open

The Devroom will run on Saturday 1 February 2020, first day of FOSDEM 
(in Brussels of course).

The timeslot is not clear now because Peter wants to join and he also
wants to hold a talk at "Open Document Editors" DevRoom.
Accepted speakers will be notified by Sunday, December 8th, 2019.

I will update the cWiki then.

Understood!

My (minor) point was, that it was not only 2016 (as written in cWiki)
but also 2017?

Yes, FOSDEM is really crowded and they have a hard time to please
everyone. This year they introduced tables for a single day, I think?

Re: FOSDEM 2020

[sharanf]

Hi Matthias

It's great to hear that you will organise a team for booth. I will add 
AOO to the booth list so please add at least one timeslot as I'd really 
like to ensure that AOO get some time on the booth.


You are right and It's true that in the past we had a combined booth at 
FOSDEM, and in those days we actually had a larger space (with two 
tables I think!) so there was enough space to have a table for AOO 
including a demo PC. and also for the ASF in general, where other ASF 
projects could also come along and spend time.


Over the last few of years the booth space has reduced and now they only 
allocate one table which is why we need to be fair to all ASF projects 
who would like to get some time on the booth. (BTW during the transition 
from two tables to one, each time we applied for a FOSDEM booth for the 
ASF, we put in a request for an additional table but were never successful).


Thanks
Sharan

One (not very important) notice:
I don't know about 2016, but my first FOSDEM was in 2017. And in 2017
you had a combined booth with OpenOffice.

Hi All

I wanted to let you know that a wiki page for FOSDEM has been setup, so if 
you'd like to book some time on the ASF booth to promote OpenOffice the link is 
below.

https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/COMDEV/FOSDEM+2020

We are planning for slots of 3-4 hours depending on how many other projects 
sign up, so please feel free to add the dates and times that you'd like. We 
will finalise the booth schedule nearer the time once we have all the project 
requests in.

Thanks

Hello,

following the published list

https://fosdem.org/2020/news/2019-11-19-accepted-stands/

our stand request was not accepted.

The Apache Software Foundation does have a stand and OpenOffice is part of the 
Foundation. Participation of OpenOffice with that stand can be discussed on 
dev@community.a.o.

There will certainly be OpenOffice stickers.

Also there is an Open Document Editors developer room on Saturday. 
https://fosdem.org/2020/news/2019-10-01-accepted-developer-rooms/

The Call For Papers is 
https://lists.fosdem.org/pipermail/fosdem/2019q4/002921.html and the deadline 
is Nov 30, 2019


But some of us (for example Mechtilde, Matthias, me) will be at FOSDEM
2020, so people can meet us.

On one side I am a little bit disappointed and sad, because a booth at
FOSDEM is a great matter for our project. On the other side I will enjoy
the freedom of irresponsibility (also a little bit) another year.

I am willing to repeat the request next year.

Was the request for OpenOffice or Apache OpenOffice?

Regards,
Dave


Kind regards
Michael

Hi Sharan,

Thanks! We will try to organize a team for AOO. Count me in, but I hope
for others joining.

One (not very important) notice:
I don't know about 2016, but my first FOSDEM was in 2017. And in 2017
you had a combined booth with OpenOffice.

Regards,

   Matthias

Re: FOSDEM 2020

[Sharan Foga]

Hi All

I wanted to let you know that a wiki page for FOSDEM has been setup, so if 
you'd like to book some time on the ASF booth to promote OpenOffice the link is 
below.

https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/COMDEV/FOSDEM+2020

We are planning for slots of 3-4 hours depending on how many other projects 
sign up, so please feel free to add the dates and times that you'd like. We 
will finalise the booth schedule nearer the time once we have all the project 
requests in.  

Thanks
Sharan

The Apache Software Foundation does have a stand and OpenOffice is part of the 
Foundation. Participation of OpenOffice with that stand can be discussed on 
dev@community.a.o.

There will certainly be OpenOffice stickers.

Also there is an Open Document Editors developer room on Saturday.

Yea sad to hear. It would have been super fun.
Let's checkout what Comdev can provide.
Maybe we can develop some ideas what to do with their space?

FOSDEM 2020

[Dr. Michael Stehmann]

Hello,

following the published list

https://fosdem.org/2020/news/2019-11-19-accepted-stands/

our stand request was not accepted.

But some of us (for example Mechtilde, Matthias, me) will be at FOSDEM
2020, so people can meet us.

On one side I am a little bit disappointed and sad, because a booth at
FOSDEM is a great matter for our project. On the other side I will enjoy
the freedom of irresponsibility (also a little bit) another year.

I am willing to repeat the request next year.

Kind regards
Michael

Not "... creating a mature ..." but "... making it a mature ...". You
don't "create" a mature product by starting it 20 years ago, but being
20 years old could (potentially, YMMV) "make" it mature.

If you're going full marketroid, at least don't say "... used a
competitive product" but "... used a *competing* product." (Or even
better, "similar" instead of "competing" to avoid the horrible
marketroiderism.) Saying other products are "competitive" implies that
AOO is not. Perish the thought.

P.S.: Yes, I am extremely allergic to marketspeak, but if you really
want to use it, might as well get it right.

"The Free and Open Productivity Suite" is our claim.

I don't know what you mean with "use it as a term". Can you explain it

FOSDEM Dev room

[Peter Kovacs]

Hello all,

Deadline is today. I am sorry I failed to come up with a proper
application fo this event. Maybe Andrea, can you enter one on the short
notice?

If we get the room I would create a talk and support our dev room, but
it is not primary motivation at the moment.

I think it is much more important that we do active recruiting. And I
want to support this activity. We have so far not managed to bring one
new volunteer into OpenOffice. But I feel that the volunteer rate of
active participants is dropping slowly.

I am sorry on the late moment, I am really feel bad about this,
especially because I promised to Mechtilde to take care of this. :(

All the Best

Peter

Sure! Actually it will be a short (15 minutes) talk, so so this will 
give us a little bit more time for meeting.

[Peter Kovacs]

Hello,

I will not attend at FOSDEM. To much to do, and no responsibilities lead
to this desicion.

I am sorry. I hope next year it will be better.

Instead I try to come to Chemnitz. I hope my life is quieter by then.


All the Best

Re: FOSDEM 2019: no Open Document Editors devroom?

[Peter Kovacs]

I have received now some feedback on Infra. A dump of Bugzilla without
Attachment is still 700 MB.

This are a lot of bugs. Also I had a look at my timing table, and I am
not sure I can prepare the talk until FOSDEM.

Also I think the UNO talk is not really fitting to Open Document
Devroom, so I submitted it as original planned as Fast talk.

Sadly I have no topics on this short notice to talk about, that I find
interesting and fit into my time table.

So I will stick to my original plan. I am sorry.


All the Best

Peter

Re: FOSDEM 2019: no Open Document Editors devroom?

[Peter Kovacs]

This is a real surprise. Full +1 on your actions Andrea. I would have
been fine with just visiting.

I will try to put one topic together then for FOSDEM, but 24th is a
little of short notice. Also I have already planned my time different.

Currently I have 2 planned projects that could modified into FOSDEM talks.

1) The UNO-Project would focus around the question the benefit of
separating the UNO - Framework in an own Project.

2) Analysis on the Bug tracker. I have planned to focus around Questions
like

How can we deal with the 3K unconfined and 10K confirmed issues? Is
there a way to improve the Clustering in the Bug tracker?

How old are our Bugs? How many Support request do we get in Bugzilla?
Which Bugs have never been looked at?

How are we doing on the Bugtracker?

And so on. I have no clue what other Questions will come to my mind. And
not all are good for a FOSDEM Presentation.


Anyone with other Ideas that can be done? - If we work together maybe we
can bring out 1 or 2 Talks. I volunteer if you need a speaker.


What I would like to do, but that I have no time for is OpenOffice
Architecture, where we are where to go. But I am sure I will not manage
this until February.

Maybe 2020.



All the Best

Re: FOSDEM 2019: UNO Project as an Idea for Main track or fast talk? (was: FOSDEM 2019: no Open Document Editors devroom?)

[Damjan Jovanovic]

Not directly. An UNO wrapper could be written to access the ODF toolkit
from other UNO languages (C++, Python, (old) Javascript, StarBasic, OLE
automation). Those languages would have to run in an UNO environment
though. Other approaches to interoperability do exist; UNO's advantage is
good performance when running in-process, and the possibility of network
transparency.

Our UNO implementation does need some maintenance, for example we have no
Win64 UNO bridge (main/bridges), and it's not easy to develop: AMD64
assembly language, and binary internals of Windows's calling convention,
C++ exception handling and RTTI...

Also UNO is pretty heavy, my estimate is around 30 binaries and 30 MB in
size, possibly more.

FOSDEM 2019 Booth Request for OpenOffice

[Peter Kovacs]

Hello all,

I do not find my last approach. So Lets start a new run.

I rewrote the argumentation to maybe now better Ideas. Please help to
finish this.

So the draft looks currently like this:


  Project Name

Apache OpenOffice


  Description of project(s) for publication:

Apache OpenOffice™ is the free and open productivity suite from the
Apache Software Foundation <https://www.apache.org/>.

Apache OpenOffice <https://www.openoffice.org/> features six personal
productivity applications: a word processor (and its web-authoring
component), spreadsheet, presentation graphics, drawing, equation
editor, and database. OpenOffice is released on Windows, Linux and
macOS, with more communities joining, including ports for FreeBSD and
OS/2. OpenOffice is localized, supporting over 110 languages worldwide.

OpenOffice.org was donated
<http://www.marketwire.com/press-release/statements-on-openofficeorg-contribution-to-apache-nasdaq-orcl-1521400.htm>
to the Apache Software Foundation (ASF) on June 1, 2011. As with any
code base brought to the ASF, OpenOffice.org underwent incubation before
graduating
<https://blogs.apache.org/OOo/entry/openoffice_graduates_from_the_apache>
to a top-level project on 2012-10-17.


  Why does it fit FOSDEM?

The Apache OpenOffice™ Project is one of view Projects that have fame
beyond the OpenSource movement. With an average download over 1.9
million copies per month and a peak download after release of
3.244.447.We are a popular project in user space.

We would like to show of the latest progress of our Software, by show
the latest stable and unstable versions. We would like to have some
Discussions with visitors about the Future of OpenOffice, how it could
evolve.

We were not as present on FOSDEM in the Last years, sharing our Booth
with the Apache Foundation. We would like to stand out this year again
in order to start some discussions.

We require one table for our representation of the Project.

Re: FOSDEM 2019: UNO Project as an Idea for Main track or fast talk? (was: FOSDEM 2019: no Open Document Editors devroom?)

[Dave Fisher]

Damjan -

A thought - does this UNO project have any synergies with ODF Toolkit? Is it 
worth reaching out to Svante Schubert and the ODF Toolkit?

Dave

FOSDEM 2019: UNO Project as an Idea for Main track or fast talk? (was: FOSDEM 2019: no Open Document Editors devroom?)

[Peter Kovacs]

Hello all

How about the Idea we make a main track to introduce the Idea from
Damjan, to create an own UNO Project.

We would need to explain

# What it does

# Examples of how can it be used.

# what Features and benefits it has.

We could get a first feedback of interest from the audience.

I think this is a good talk for a main track in general.


All the best

Peter

Thanks for the info!
So we have more time to talk and (hopefully) for our booth. ;-)

The organizers confirmed that the devroom won't run in 2019, so neither 
OpenOffice nor similar programs will get a devroom (i.e., a day-long 
conference track, for those unfamiliar with FOSDEM jargon).


It is normal that FOSDEM rotates subjects of their devrooms and we 
should be grateful to organizers for having given us a devroom in 
several years so far, and possibly in future years beyond 2019.


There is still the opportunity to propose presentations for the 
so-called "Main Track":

FOSDEM 2019: no Open Document Editors devroom?

[Andrea Pescetti]

While I haven't received any feedback from FOSDEM organizers yet (the 
two contact addresses I had given were mine and Peter's), I am not 
seeing the Open Document Editors devroom listed at 
https://fosdem.org/2019/schedule/


This is just to confirm that I did send a request, a couple days before 
the deadline, exactly the same way it has worked in the past years. 
Usually a similar request was sent by another project and the requests 
were merged by organizers to create a shared "Open Document Editors" 
devroom.


If organizers have decided not to host an "Open Document Editors" 
devroom this year, we should just respect them; they need to rotate 
projects, so after a few years in a row it is understandable if they 
decided to pick other types of software. I'm not into political games 
and I'm uninterested in discussing why (so far at least) FOSDEM decided 
that OpenOffice and similar software should not get a devroom this year.


If I get some official acceptance/rejection notice I will of course 
inform the list.


Here's the receipt of the application I sent last month, very similar to 
those from previous years that you can find in the list archives.

Acknowledging your devroom request (Apache OpenOffice [or: joint "ODF 
Editors" devroom])

Wed, 19 Sep 2018 21:51:51 +0000

Devroom Request for FOSDEM 2019

We acknowledge that we have received your request for the following devroom.
After we review all devroom requests, we will inform you accordingly via 
email.


Title: Apache OpenOffice [or: joint "ODF Editors" devroom]
Coordinator: Andrea Pescetti
Coordinator email: pescetti@...
Secondary contact: Peter Kovacs
Secondary email: petko@...

Description:
Apache OpenOffice, formerly known as OpenOffice.org, is one of the most 
popular Free and Open Source software projects. A Top Level Project at 
the Apache Software Foundation since October 2012, OpenOffice has more 
than 250 million downloads as an official Apache project. The next 
version, OpenOffice 4.1.6, is scheduled for release in October 2018.


Note: A joint "ODF editors" devroom like the one organized at FOSDEM 
since 2014 would allow a productive exchange of ideas with other Free 
and Open Source editors using OpenDocument as their native format.


As for OpenOffice, topics that may be interesting for FOSDEM 2019 
include: modernization of the reference baseline; improvements to the 
localization process; tools to assist release management; build 
technologies.


Coordinator's affinity to the topic of the devroom:
Andrea, who is sending the application on behalf of the OpenOffice PMC, 
served as Chair of the OpenOffice Project Management Committee 
(2012-2014) and was the Release Manager of OpenOffice 4.1.2 in 2015.


Why does it fit FOSDEM
An Apache OpenOffice devroom would allow existing volunteers to meet and 
discuss future developments, and users and potential new volunteers to 
learn how they can help the project, thanks to presentations and hacking 
sessions spanning a broad range of topics.


Relevant URLs:
The main project URL is http://www.openoffice.org/


Timeslot:
Full day

Special requirements:
Preferred day: Saturday



Kind Regards,
FOSDEM 2019 devrooms team

Hallo Jörg,

wegen der Kosten setze Dich bitte mit Peter in Verbindung.

_Aber:_

Die Flyer müssen auch inhaltlich aktualisiert werden.

Das gilt beispielsweise für die unterstützten Betriebssysteme oder die
Anzahl der Downloads, um einmal augenfällige Punkte zu nennen.

Gut wäre es, es würde etwas Editierbares zur Verfügung gestellt (gerne
auch in LaTeX ;-) ).

Dann wäre es auch möglich, die französische und die englische Version zu
erstellen.

Gruß
Michael

Das Herstellen deutscher Flyer ist kein Problem, aber wie kommen wir an Geld 
von Apache? Nötiger Ablauf?

FOSDEM 2018

[Dr. Michael Stehmann]

Hallo,

auf der FOSDEM 2018 am vergangenen Wochenende war Apache OpenOffice
wieder mit einem eigenen Stand vertreten. Das war nicht weder
beabsichtigt, noch geplant, sondern ergab sich aus den Umständen und
erforderte ein wenig Improvisationstalent.

Gleichwohl fand man zu uns und wir konnten wieder einige gute Gespräche
führen. Auch unsere Flyer und einige PrOOo-Boxen fanden Interessenten.

Wir brauchen bald aktuelle Flyer und zwar in Englisch, Französisch und
Deutsch.

Unser neuer, kleiner Stand-Computer hat seine erste Bewährungsprobe
bestanden. Dank an Matthias für die Beschaffung. Das Rechnerchen
erleichtert die Logistik sehr.

Am Rande konnte 'mal eben - total bürokratiefrei - geklärt werden, dass
wir bei der nächsten T-Dose, deren Termin noch nicht feststeht, auch
wieder dabei sind.

Von den Aktivitäten im dev-room mag ein anderer berichten, da ich leider
keine Zeit hatte, mich dort länger aufzuhalten.

Auch im Kreise der Projektmitglieder konnten wir einige Gespräche
führen, die sich hoffentlich noch als fruchtbringend erweisen werden.
Ein Treffen im "real life" ist halt sinnvoll und fördert das
Kennenlernen und Miteinander..

Schön war es auch, dass Patricia angereist war, die danach schrieb:

"It was wonderful to meet so many nice people who had just been mailing
list names."

Dies ist durchaus auch mein Resümee.

Die Teilnehmerzahl an der FOSDEM wird immer größer. Sehr viele Vorträge
waren rasch voll. Menschen berichteten, dass sie sich eine halbe Stunde
vor Beginn angestellt hätten und gleichwohl keinen Einlass mehr fanden.
Dies ist einerseits erfreulich, andererseits aber ziemlich misslich für
die Menschen, die gerne den einen oder anderen Vortrag gehört hätten.

Für die nächste FOSDEM planen wir wieder einen eigenen Stand. Peter, als
unser PMC-Chair, hat sich bereit erklärt diesen anzumelden. Er hat auch
in lobenswerter Weise die Bekanntschaft der FOSDEM-Helfer gesucht, indem
er freiwillig eine Helferschicht am Infodesk schob.

Die FOSDEM ist jedes Jahr ein Erlebnis, dass man nicht missen möchte,
wenn man einmal dabei war. Wie sich an den Teilnehmerzahlen zeigt, ist
der "Suchtfaktor" recht hoch.

Nächster Event: Chemnitz. Wir werden dort viele Freunde wiedersehen.

Gruß
Michael

Getting back to London got me access to an English-speaking pharmacist. I am 
much better now. 

It was wonderful to meet so many nice people who had just been mailing list 
names.
