Re: [tdf-discuss] [UI] Splash screen

The perception (rather than an objectively measured reality) is what counts. Totally agree with you. To make LibO faster it might be possible to hide the splash screen a little before the main windows appears and move the load of some modules/libs after the main app is on the screen. That could reduce the perceived load time of a at least couple of secs. Ercole I agree 100% with this, Ercole! First, the idea of hide splash screen and to be appear the main window as quickly as possible is genial. Second, if the libraries are charged in silent mode (for the user) this represents a real improvement, not only a perceptual improvement. :-) Congratulations for the ideas! -- ~~~ Prof. Román H.

Re: [tdf-discuss] Government of TDF
El 06/10/10 10:21, Andre Schnabel escribió: Hi all, for the moment (or better for the initial period) the Steering Committe is the governing instance of TDF. But this will change. We understand, that there are questions, how the committee was elected, how it is supposed to work, etc ... I will follow up on this later (or maybe tomorrow). We are aware, that we need to give more information on this. Tank you Andre. Your words are music for my [eyes|ears] :-) For the moment, just some basic rules, we defined, when we elected the Committee: - all members must be accepted community contributors at OpenOffice.org (therefore we have a good number of OOo Community Council members) I agree. - members should cover all aspects of our community, including developers (code hackers), general development (supporting tasks like QA, marketing, documentation), l10n / native-lang, user community and stakeholders Work is needed on this point. Is a priority! - the Steering Committe must work on the bylaws for the future governing body and end it's own existence, as soon as this body is operational +1 - the Steering Committe will end it's existence 1 year the latest after public announcement (or earlier, if a the future commitee is operational) +1 Definition of the future governing body needs to be done with all of you - the community. I hope, we can start this process soon. But first we need to hand over some other tasks, like moderating the mailing lists, handling infrastructure ... these are very busy days. +1 hope that helps, Help too much! -- ~~~ Prof. Román H.

Re: [tdf-discuss] Explanation . . . ?
Not that LibreOffice as a name doesn't have its own problems. Libre is pronounced differently in Spanish and French, I'm told, and the word is a struggle for Americans. But what's done is done. Now is the time for everyone to get behind the new name. Nice thinking, Jon! But I add that libre speech is widely used in the community through the acronym FLOSS -- ~~~ Prof. Román H.

[tdf-discuss] Patching
This is something I have been asked in various places in Spanish. How will policies added patch? The question is that we all like to have many and nice new features. But, in production environments, it is equally important (or more) to have stability. We will have two versions? (Advanced and stable) Are all questions to begin (or continue) building Commonwealth Office as a building with good bases. -- ~~~ Prof. Román H.
