I check your document and just to clarify something. To connect UNO with
OLE and COM you don't necesarily need .NET. Accordin to this post you can
make conections with UNO through com using Delphi, Python, C, C++,
VisualBasic >6.0, Ruby, TCL, and PHP.

Alexandro,
Excellent document.
It was easier for me to add my changes directly in the document. You
find the edited document as a new attachment to bug #83739
It is unclear to me why the image on the second page shows Google Docs.
Especially the Google Docs Extension is from the Extension development
perspective a bad example (Swing Dialogs instead of OO.o dialogs)
A logo of the Weblog Publisher might be better due to the fact that this
Extension follows the Extension design rules.
Regards
Kay

Created issue 8379 for this
http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=83739
I was thinking about this again while walking the dog this afternoon...
I guess we have four possible targets for this flyer:
(a) entry level hackers who could write and share macros
(maybe? have we a repository for these?)
(b) intermediate level hackers who could write extensions
(c) expert hackers who could contribute to core OOo
(d) hackers/systems integrators who could use OOo componentry
in their own applications
Is this correct? are (a) and / or (d) in scope? does (b) now replace
(a)?
I included pieces from all 4 markets. From integrators, to core
developers, to extension developers and macro developers. We could
develop aditional flyers for each of them.
(I'm assuming that other contributors - e.g. translators - are out of
scope of this particular document, although we do need to market to
them
too.)
We could post it to the native-lang and see if it flies.
Why should any of these people want to contribute?
I really think projects like code-snippet need a revamp so we can have
much more code than what we had there. I was about to mention oooforum
since it has a large repository of snippets while codesnippets haven't
really pick up as much. Then again I think we should acomodate this
emails for the developers to notice. i.e. send it to [EMAIL PROTECTED] or
[EMAIL PROTECTED] etc.
- OOo is the leading open-source office suite - your code could be used
by tens
of millions of grateful users tomorrow (including your
boyfriend/girlfriend, mum,
dad, kids, colleagues...)
- Your extensions just look like regular OOo - you can't see the join
- OOo allows you to code in your language of choice
in addition, for (c)
- OOo is a complex system, developed over 20 years, and supported by
talented volunteers and professional developers sponsored by some of
the most respected names in IT (Sun, IBM, Novell, RedFlag, etc)
- Understanding the code is challenging but the community will go to
great
lengths to support motivated and capable individuals
- Getting your code accepted is a testimonial your abilities as a
professional
software engineer.
Do we need to get some of this into the Flyer?
