Sounds great! Evgeny (the primary dev) is very responsive and has been quite helpful with the q's I've asked. The latest version of askbot includes a lot of neat features, including a couple of fixes that Evgeny put-in within about an hour of me asking about them. > They will setup a fresh AskBot instance, add localization features, improve > the theming, and ideally also implement some of the desired features. Nifty. There are some key pieces that would be really helpful (e.g. some kind of status like 'NEEDINFO') that we could definitely discuss with them. The Fedora folks also use Askbot, IIRC, so perhaps we could pool some funds if there's a big feature we both want. > Olivier got in touch with them and asked for a quotation, on which I will > ask for budget authorization from the infra budget soon. > > This will then also help us to add more localizations and languages to > AskBot. Super. It would be great to have more than just EN and PT-BR in the localization list :-) I've got a bit on my plate, but if there's a proposal document or time to discuss fixes/features, I'd more than happy to help. danke, --R -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: [email protected] Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/website/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
