Re: [tdf-discuss] TDF fundraising suggestion - Bitcoin

The fund raising effort by The Document Foundation recently has been quite remarkable and no doubt it will continue in this vein. My little suggestion is intended to change or remove nothing from the current state of affairs, merely to add an option to the usual array of financial options of credit cards, PayPal, cheques and bank transfers. The suggestion is, as the subject line indicates, that TDF consider adding a Bitcoin address for accepting donations. snip So ... thoughts, opinions? Regards, Ben For what it's worth (as I have been a lurker on the list so far :-P), I think this is a good idea. As you mention, the costs of implementation are very low and it could definitely improve TDF's revenue since there are many people who are interested in Bitcoin succeeding and would consider donating just because of that. The large overlap of that mindset with the FOSS one coupled with the ease of making a transaction are also a large plus. Hopefully this post will bump the thread a bit so someone with real voting power can chime in! :-) Regards, -- Denis Kasak -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to discuss+h...@documentfoundation.org Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.documentfoundation.org/www/discuss/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
[tdf-discuss] Re: [libreoffice-design] Templates, styles, outline and bullets/numbering

The areas I think are weak, and this is by no means a full list, are: - The template organiser dialogue - who knows how to use it and what it's really for? - Style management - setting defaults, selecting style-sheets with some idea of the stylistic/visual impact, changing styles - Style usage - must become solid, robust and consistent. The impossibility of getting working single type or mixed type (numbered or bulletted) outline lists must be solved! At the moment, there seem to be three or four ways to control list hierarchies and only some (or one) of them work. They are using the tab key, using the increase/decrease indent button, using the list or numbering styles or using the bullets and numbering's outline view. They each break the others in an unpredictable way! I think the user stories that press on the issues are something like: 1/ As a document writer, I want to ensure my document is easy to read because all the paragraphs, headers and lists are consistent in their style and outline level, according to their position in the document hierarchy. You can probably tell from this that I think we should strive to make styles and outline levels so easy to use (while not diminishing their full capabilities) that users predominantly use styles and not the ad-hoc editing methods that render most docs inconsistent and difficult to read. 2/ As a document writer, I want to be able to very easily select a style-sheet to change the look of my document, so I have a good idea of how the new style- sheet will look before I select it and I should not have to do much custom editing to get a style I like. 3/As a style-sheet writer or modifier, I want to see a style-sheet view of the world, that shows the hierarchy of styles and their setting inheritance and overrides, so that I can easily build and maintain a simple and logical style- sheet e.g. style settings inheritance and override hierarchy (This indented text illustrates the hierarchy, not a design ;o) -- Default (All settings, including outline levels) --Paragraph text (overridden or new settings) --Heading (overridden or new settings) --Heading1 (overridden or new settings) --Heading2 (overridden or new settings) --Heading3 (overridden or new settings) --Header (overridden or new settings) --FirstPageHeader (overridden or new settings) --LeftHeader (overridden or new settings) --RightHeader (overridden or new settings) --Footer (overridden or new settings) --FirstPageFooter (overridden or new settings) --LeftFooter (overridden or new settings) --RightFooter (overridden or new settings) --List (overridden or new settings) --BulletList1 (overridden or new settings) --NumberList1 (overridden or new settings) --BulletList2 (overridden or new settings) --NumberList2 (overridden or new settings) --BulletList3 (overridden or new settings) --NumberList3 (overridden or new settings) 4/As a style-sheet writer or modifier, I want to lock a style-sheet to a document template, so that only that style-sheet can be used, so the documents produced are consistent. (personally, I'd like to see a way to lock out custom edits for selected doc templates too, for complete document consistency and compatibility - this is especially powerful for collaboratively authored docs) Aside from the implicated UI redesign, I think an extensive and professional set of style-sheets would greatly help matters. Any thoughts?

What do you refer as style sheet? I've never had problems with numbered lists (I mean, once I understood how they work...), but I agree that they are not clear at all. Most users I've seen tend to confuse numbered lists with outline numbering, so a better distinction is needed. Then you can't have pushed them much. As I said before At the moment, there seem to be three or four ways to control list hierarchies and only some (or one) of them work. They are using the tab key, using the increase/decrease indent
