 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.

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!

 I would suggest this as an extension and people could devise all sort

 a list that is more personal to them.

 How about a menu theme for Mad Author or Crazy Academic? LOL

I agree with this idea!!! :-)

Re: [tdf-discuss] Government of TDF

 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!

 Windows becomes the corner case...
 There is no defined standard of where to install files, just suggestions.
 And an update mechanism becomes an external program. There are 3rd
 party apps for updating sources. I believe we should explore those
 options.

Great think and great summary, Scott!

Re: [tdf-discuss] Explanation . . . ?

2010-09-30 Thread Roman Gelbort

 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

[tdf-discuss] Patching

2010-09-30 Thread Roman Gelbort
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.
