Hi Laurent, all,

Hi Gerry
What I said to Andrew. We need to look at what exists and decide what it
is we can do. I have little to no programming skill at this level having
never dived in so can only offer high level support.
as said previously bye someone else,i think this is waste of time
targetting a brand new DevGuide ! by experience it is a huge huge task
and energy could be put somewhere else
+1 From several discussions and threads that I remind, this was not the
topic. But adding new articles was the concern.
Even if i'm blamed by sunnies (some may be aggressive sometimes) asking
this freeing every 6 months (i've a calendar reminder ;) ), i'm totally
sure of the will of freeing this and can understand some legal issues
and then delay ... (he guys, not so much, please)
If I can help here with my OOo memory, moving from CA to JCA has took
more that one year. Moving to no licence to PDL has took about 2 years,
moving to outsource OLH has took more than 2 years but it's not still
possible to contribute to it so pleas guys, be patient and confident,
the most important is that the the willing is here :-)
here are some alternative ways
- propose helping on freeing the existing one
+1
- provide translation of code source of the devGuide on the wiki into
new languages (Basic, Python) in our own licence provided we're allowed
to ...some info on this ?
you're always allowed to provide new material on another licence. The
concern is how this will be integrated, and how this will be interacting
with the already existing material.
From what I remember of all the discussions about the dev guide, this
came out about adding new articles or rewriting existing articles. The
purpose was not about rewriting from scratch.
- populate the extensions wiki ! a lot or redactionnal is here needed
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Extensions_development
I've done my best ;-)
- any other proposal accepted :)
all of this to be translated, working with NLC
The issue is that even in the NLC, people available have not the
extensible time they would like and you would need. Imho, at this point,
there is some marketing actions needed to populate your project. So cc
John ;-)
Kind regards
