I suspect the the testautomation project has something that would help
me.  However, I am already feeling overwhelmed by new knowledge.

Actually, I find many things that tend to spread out my attention: new
assertions, new techniques, new (to me) parts of OO.  But I think that

 Hi Terrence,
 
  A website page about building OOo says that non-product builds are
  used almost exclusively within Sun.  For a long time, I incorrectly
  took that to be a warning that they are hard to accomplish rather than
  merely a description of a regrettable state of affairs.  Perhaps we do
  not want to encourage a non-product build for a newcomer's very first
  attempt, but I could have been finding these assertions long ago.
  Would a change to the website be in order?
 
 Certainly, go ahead.

( I searched, and I couldn't find the page.  Then I was doing
something else, and I stumbled across it.  Obviously I need to improve
my google skills. )

For anybody who cares, I changed Non Product Build
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Non_Product_Build; the diff
is
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/w/index.php?title=Non_Product_Buildcurid=1669diff=163692oldid=160306.

Cheers,
Terry.

 
 Ciao
 Frank

Oh, I am so sorry. Yes, there is something that needs to be done to
activate it. The feedback program is only activated in official sun
builds. Only there there are the files:

 ./basis3.2/share/registry/modules/org/openoffice/Office/Jobs/Jobs-oooimprovement.xcu
 ./basis3.2/share/registry/modules/org/openoffice/Office/Logging/Logging-oooimprovement.xcu

in the installation. In the source tree you will find the files at:

 ./extensions/source/oooimprovement/Jobs.xcu
 ./extensions/source/oooimprovement/Logging.xcu

Im sorry, if I caused confusion.

 assertions, new techniques, new (to me) parts of OO.  But I think that

Yes, OOo is huge and assertions take you all over the place. It might
be useful to just concentrate on set of modules (from one application)
and ignore everything else in the beginning. And even then it helps to
limit oneself to the lowhanging fruits for starters.
