[libreoffice-website] Help-Feedback page ...

2013-04-02 Thread Michael Meeks
Hi guys,

We discussed the lack of this in the ESC call; it would appear to be
easier to get a feedback webpage sorted out:

case SID_SEND_FEEDBACK:
{
::rtl::OUString module = SfxHelp::GetCurrentModuleIdentifier();
::rtl::OUString 
sURL(http://hub.libreoffice.org/send-feedback/?LOversion=; + 
utl::ConfigManager::getAboutBoxProductVersion() +
LOlocale= + utl::ConfigManager::getLocale() + LOmodule= + 
module.copy(module.lastIndexOf(.) + 1 )  );

Clearly this currently re-directs to the bug filing assistant; but of
course this is not strictly the only meaning of feedback.

I guess it would be nice to have an intermediate page that provided a
'+' and '-' button to reflect positive vs. negative feedback (that we
could simply log per component  version); provide a list of ways to get
involved with the project, and also a prominent re-direction to bugzilla
[ that preserved / tunneled through the version etc. (?).

At least, changing the translation for 100 languages for 'Feedback' to
file-bug seems like rather a chunk of work here - and it'd be nicer to
have that ;-) so the ESC punted this to the website team - hope that's
ok.

ATB,

Michael.

Yep - but that page did exist back then :-)

And that shows how important it is that the hub link is used, and not
some fixed-URL - as the redirection can be changed easily.

Surely it is - so when you (nl-teams/website editors) have created
such a page, let me know so I can change the redirection accordingly.

It is up to nl-teams whether they want completely different pages, or
a special page like the download or donate page. - In any case, the
page needs to exist before it can be pointed to :-)

ciao
Christian
