Wonderful - thanks!

(Hmm maybe someone with enough rights can rename it to *_LibreOffice_* :) )

If there's anything I can do.. And of course interested in the findings

I thought that directory under shared-common was deleted a couple weeks
back?

 @Cor I didn't know if Olivier had added you to the group or nor, and I've
never invited anyone directly before from within the NC UI.  Just in case
Olivier hasn't though, and assuming this works as I think it does, doing so
just now should give you the access you need here.

Well, I guess the question is whether you see a shared folder named
"LibreOffice
Documentation" in your home file folder under NC?
If so, then yeah sure use it. You see the files are in folders for
languages, create a new one if you need to you or add it to an existing
folder, at least that makes sense to me.
If you do not see that shared workgroup folder in your home folder holler
back and that can be fixed.

Re: [libreoffice-documentation] Contribution

2016-03-30 Thread Tom Davies
Hi :)
Please can someone register Bilal at ODFauthors?

@ Bilal.  There are many different things you could work on within the
Documentation Team.  It's also possible that you might want to translate
from/to English.  Typically people want to start with proof-reading the
Published Guides and occasionally (but very rarely) the Faq wiki but there
are other wikis and also the "in-built help"

The ODFauthors website is the tool for working on the Published Guides, in
English, as found here;
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation/Publications

The guide in most urgent need of proof-reading is the "Base Handbook".
Most people avoid it because they don't know how to use Base and it scares
them.  However proof-reading shouldn't really need any understanding of the
subject-matter.  It probably helps but if there is any sentence or anything
that doesn't make sense to someone who doesn't already know the subject
then the guide is not doing the job that it is being made for = so it's a
good idea to post the sentence/chunk to this mailing list to see if anyone
here can make it easier to understand.  There are quite a few experts on
Base on the User Support mailing list who might also be able to help make
sense of it.

However the choice of what you first work on is entirely up to you.  It
does kinda make sense to work on something you are comfortable with at
first so that you can figure out how to use the systems before using them
on something trickier later.  The choice is yours :))

Regards from
Tom :)

Re: [libreoffice-documentation] Contribution (Alfresco)

2012-08-03 Thread David Nelson
Sanket,

Thanks for the off-list mail, I've replied to you and added you on Skype.

Like I said, I'm totally taken up with other stuff at the moment, and
can't currently help out with that list of stuff to be done. But I
certainly will as soon as time gets easier - although that probably
will not be for another month or so. All I can promise is that I will
respond to any questions you have, by mail or by Skype, in a timely
manner, and that I will react immediately in the event of a server
outage.

However, the server is being pinged by Pingability.com every 15
minutes and hasn't been down since it was up again - if you see what I
mean. That is to say that it's been running trouble-free since the
beginning of February 2012, when it was fixed after a botched upgrade,
and can reasonably be hoped to stay that way (it's running the latest
version of Alfresco Community). The server gets backed-up once a week
from my side, and Florian Effenberger was intending to run hourly
back-ups onto a separate TDF server - I'm not sure if he actually got
around to that, but I'm CC'ing him this mail just in case, because it
would be an excellent precaution to implement.

No major maintenance is planned at the moment, except that Cedric or I
will be implementing SSO (Single Sign-On) on the Alfresco platform,
which is planned for all TDF sites, so that logging-on to one site
logs you onto them all. Plus Jeff Potts of the Alfresco project has
work on-going on http://media.libreoffice.org:8081, to implement a
better publicly-accessible browsing interface (CMIS-based) than the
current Drupal-based site at http://media.libreoffice.org/.

Florian Effenberger, Cedric Bosdonnat and the TDF sysadmins have all
the info to log in and take action at OS level, as does Jeff Potts.

I will probably approach TDF's BoD during August to see whether to
move the platform onto a TDF-operated server, but will liaise with the
docs team and ask for your opinions before taking any action.

That's about all I can think of for the moment, but you can catch me
on Skype anytime. :-) Any mail to this list mentioning Alfresco also
gets forwarded to my business mailbox, so anyone can also buzz me here
and be sure that I'll see it.

Re: [libreoffice-documentation] Contribution (Alfresco)

2012-08-01 Thread David Nelson
Hi Jean, Sanket,

On Wed, Aug 1, 2012 at 6:17 PM, Jean Weber  wrote:
> knowledge about
> the Docs team's intended workflow.

Well, yeah, I should have said that it's not so much Jean that needs
the documentation, it's more a question of getting new contributors up
and running quickly and efficiently, without their having to come back
and ask the same beginner's questions each time.

So, what we really need is - as far as the docs contributors are
concerned - is a good contributor's guide for Alfresco - initially for
the docs team. In reality, this would become a section in the main
docs team contributor's guide, which covers other aspects of docs team
contribution than Alfresco.

Drafting that guide entails liaising with the docs team and the docs
team leader, Jean, and establishing what the workflow would become
when usage of Alfresco is integrated, and then establishing what
configuration work needs to be done on Alfresco to fit-in with then
need.

In reality - at least IMHO - we don't need to devise any Alfresco
workflows as such. It could end up being constraining for the docs
contributors. My own cogitation on the subject came to the conclusion
that Alfresco's out-of-the-box functionalities already provide some
great pluses. Also, by not asking them to fit-in with an Alfresco
workflow, we leave the docs team flexibility to gravitate to a
workflow naturally, progressively as they start to really adopt
Alfresco and get used to it.

IMHO, simply using Alfresco in much the same way as Windows Explorer
or Gnome's Nautilus already leverages a lot of what Alfresco has to
offer, while being pretty easy to learn.

But these are simply my own initial views, and all needs to be
validated by consulting with the docs team, and in the light of the
experience of knowledgeable Alfresco specialists.

Subsequently, after addressing the needs of the docs team
contributors, we need an admin's guide.

And then we would also need a *generic* Alfresco user's guide for
users coming from other teams within the project.

I'm pretty certain that when we have those assets, people generally
within the LibreOffice project will be a lot more open to adopting
Alfresco.

Ultimately, we might also look at the idea of requesting a VPS or
other server from TDF and implementing the Alfresco platform on there.
I say this because I'm currently the provider of the VPS and the only
regular admin, and I wonder whether this isn't a brake for some
people... However, I'm also very happy to go on providing the Alfresco
platform and server for the project if other people are happy with
that solution and don't feel reluctant to use the tool under those
conditions.

Anyway, Sanket, I think this outlines the work needed at the present
time. I'll leave you to reflect on the matter, And, once again, we'd
be very happy to count you as one of "the staff". :-)

"In the past, Jean has said she'd be perfectly happy to work with
Alfresco if there was documentation to help her,"

That is true, but I am more concerned about having documentation to
help other contributors use Alfresco effectively as part of the
documentation workflow. This requires not only knowledge about how the
LibreOffice implementation of Alfresco woks, but also knowledge about
the Docs team's intended workflow.

Well, implementation as such is completely finished.

The only on-going work is http://media.libreoffice.org:8081

This is the public download point where all content on the repository
can be accessed by the public without requiring to log in.

Jeff Potts of the Alfresco project has developed this, and it requires
some work on the CSS to bring it into line with LibreOffice
presentation norms.

In addition, we need to work with Jeff in deciding what meta data to
display for each document. Notably, the version info would be used for
differentiating between document versions (Writer's Guide for LibO
v3.5, then v3.6, etc.).

The same document would be updated each time, and previous versions
would be preserved and still accessible for download via Alfresco's
versioning system. But the one linked to on the wike and LibO site
would be the most-recent version.

In effect, this would give the documentation team the opportunity to
have one version of a document that gets linked to on the wiki and the
LibO main site (http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/documentation/)
one time, without having to update links each time a new version gets
published.

But this requires definition of the meta data with the docs team.

At present, the big outstanding need is to finish a docs team
contributor's guide for the Alfresco platform, followed by an
administrator's guide (admin through the Alfresco admin interface
only).

This is a job that I have "sitting on my to-do list" for quite some
time, but have not yet been able to complete.

If you felt able to work on this, it would be a big boon.

Although Alfresco is a very powerful tool that can easily fulfill the
team's needs, and has a lot of additional valuable functionality in
relation to the tool they are currently using, there seems to be some
reluctance to change over as some team members are not familiar with
Alfresco. If they had a user guide, they'd *probably* take the plunge.

But, to write the guide, a certain amount (not massive, though) of
configuration work needs to be done setting up groups and putting
registered users in those groups. The groups aspect has to be thought
out with consideration that, in the future, other audiences in the
LibreOffice project might also decide to take-up Alfresco. That
potentially includes both documentation teams for other languages as
well as other teams within the project (design, etc.)

If you feel you're able to take a lead in this, your help would be
most appreciated.

In any case, to help you arrive at a decision, I've created an account
for you at http://alfresco.libreoffice.org and made you an
administrator. I'm mailing you the details off-list.

Once again, thank you for the offer of help. Does any of the above
seem feasible for you?

I can only add that there are a number of interesting developments at
the moment as regards Alfresco. Apart from the work that Jeff Potts is
contributing, work is also being done by Cedric Bosdonnat on CMIS
connectivity within LibreOffice.

This would make LibreOffice capable of connecting to and interacting
with an Alfresco repository (such as the one I'm currently operating
for the docs team) in the same way that Microsoft Office does with a
SharePoint platform. This is currently a significant functionality gap
that has importance for some corporate users.

That CMIS connectivity could ultimately mean that docs team
contributors would be able to upload work on a doc to the Alfresco
platform directly from within their LibreOffice, without having to go
through all the manual steps as at present.

So maintaining an Alfresco platform for the LibreOffice project has
more relevance than ever. However, I'm still largely a voice in the
wilderness in this respect, so you, Sharma, could certainly help bring
the good news to the docs team and to the LibO project management.
We're not totally alone as Alfresco advocates: Cedric has recently
also shown interest in admin'ing the LibO Alfresco platform, and Jeff
Potts has already done valuable work and given precious advice.

Apart from that, Jean Weber and Tom Davies also have admin powers on
the platform... But they need an ad

Hi David, 

Trust you are well and had a good weekend. It was nice to see you reply and 
seems like you've already quite far ahead with your implementation. 

Yes, my offer for help is still stands open. I can perhaps start with the 
general administration and move on to more advanced coding/backend stuff once I 
understand environment well enough?

I'm pretty much comfortable with the fully cycle - administration/installation, 
configuration, development and even documentation. I think it would be best if 
you can advice me - whats on your priority list and I can get cracking? Would 
love to be part of "The Staff" ;-)


Best Regards,
Sanket

Hi Sanket, Jean, Tom, guys,

Sorry to have been so silent recently... So much stuff is happening
for me right now in the offline world. I did get your off-list mails
but did not reply immediately since no showstopper Alfresco outage was
involved. But I will reply - *probably* this weekend, since I have the
weekend free for the first time in ages.

Anyway, this does not mean that things have not been moving Alfresco-wise.

Cedric Bosdonnat has been in contact with me on Skype, and is now
tooled-up to help out with admin'ing the server. He's also been at
work on CMIS functionality for LibreOffice, which - when ready for
prime-time use - could have very significant implications and
advantages for collaborating via Alfresco.

Jeff Potts has developed and installed a dedicated interface to
replace the current Drupal-based site at http://media.libreoffice.org
- you can check it out at http://media.alfresco.org:8081.

I'll be starting new threads with much more information about all the
above news.

Sanket, if your offer of help with administration is still open,
you'll be a most-welcome addition to "the staff". If so, please could
you post back with more details about the kind of help you feel able
to offer? Admin via the Alfresco admin interface? Development work via
the admin interface? "Back-end" development work via coding installed
at OS level? Got any specific ideas about what you'd like to get
involved in?

One big outstanding task is to write documentation for docs team
contributors collaborating using Alfresco, and - more generally - for
other teams using the LibreOffice Alfresco platform for collaboration.
I'm planning to work on that more this weekend, but you'd be very
welcome to take part in this, if you felt able...

Re: [libreoffice-documentation] Contribution (Alfresco)

2012-06-26 Thread Tom Davies
Hi :)
I had a quick glance back but only as far as mid-Aug 2011.  Couldn't find the 
one i thought i remembered.  The only other name i could find was Christian 
Lohmaier and i think he is a famous LibreOffice person.  I sent him a quick 
email to see if he remembered anything.  

I found the email that Jean was referring to when she said that commerce@ was 
the best address.  David said that lists@ was read occasionally but commerce@ 
got read even if he was snowed-under with clients.  So, i guess he is busy with 
clients :)  not a bad thing to be these days!  :)  
Regards from
Tom :)

Brilliant, nicely done (as always).  Thanks for reassuring me.  I doubt anyone

did David tell us the name of his main contact within the Alfresco project?  If
