[dev] OpenOffice.org status and v3.4 final release

2011-04-26 Thread Allen Pulsifer
Greetings,

Normally the OpenOffice.org holds a Release Status Meeting every Monday and
reports the minutes at
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/ReleaseStatus_Minutes .  I notice
that no meeting has been held the last two Mondays.  Is anyone working on a
final release of OpenOffice.org v3.4?  For example, the web page at
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/OOoRelease34 lists the following
persons that are responsible for some aspect of the release: antbryan, hde,
ja, jsc, md, mike, mla, and rosana.  Which of those persons, if any, are
still involved in the release and or involved in the OpenOffice.org project?

Second, according to http://council.openoffice.org/ , the following persons
are members or deputy members of the OpenOffice.org Community Council: Louis
Suárez-Potts, Matthias Huetsch, Kazunari Hirano, Stefan Taxhet, Martin
Hollmichel, Andreas Bartel, Juergen Schmidt, Carsten Driesner, Eike Rathke.
Which if any of these persons remain involved with the OpenOffice.org
project?  When is the next meeting of the OpenOffice.org Community Council?
Would any member of the OpenOffice.org Community Council care to comment or
inform us of the current status of the project?

Thank you,

Allen Pulsifer

Yes.
3.4 will be going out, as I was informed of this by Mathias Bauer, cc'd here.

All.



  When is the next meeting of the OpenOffice.org Community Council?

We had an informal one last Thursday to discuss the announcement by Edward 
Screven Oracle regarding Oracle's intentions for OOo. Nothing was concluded, as 
none of us has any special information.

From my perspective, the most important thing is to continue with the 
development of OOo and the ODF so that the market and those who use and depend 
upon the application are not disappointed.


 Would any member of the OpenOffice.org Community Council care to comment or
 inform us of the current status of the project?

Yes, I would be happy to. I'd be even happier to know what is really going on.

I have been acting as directly as possible, to preserve this project and its 
community, and to ensure that its value is both appreciated and even grows. But 
I just have zero real knowledge, though I do hope that changes Real Soon Now.

Regardless, I am quite optimistic that the outcome will be more than 
satisfactory and put OOo on truly solid ground—not one based on rhetoric but 
code  and community engagement, including that of the developers. But let's 
see…. 

I'll be posting too to my blog, http://ooo-speak.blogspot.com/ 
 
 Thank you,
