John,
I would like to request for the UDK project as what Ingrid requested for
the Chart. The UDK already is available as a 'standalone' component,
namely as the URE (Uno Runtime Environment).
I haven't got a URE icon on my "Start" menu ... or to put it another
What is the "Start" menu? ;-)
way:
$ ls /usr/bin/oo
oobase ooffice oomath oowriter
oocalc oofromtemplate ooo-wrapper
oodraw ooimpress ooweb
If you want an executable, just search for uno.bin / uno.exe.
where is ooure?
URE (Uno Runtime Environment) is just an abbreviation for a collection
of tools and libraries OOo depends on. Unfortunately names have not been
chosen well (UDK, URE etc.), so I am planning to fix this.
As I said, Uno (URE) is the foundation of OOo, if you do not know about
it, that is sad :-(
My impression is, that you basically think you are the only one allowed
to have an opinion how users and contributors etc. are to be guided
through the main page. From my point of view, OOo is build up by its
accepted projects, so these accepted projects very well have the right
to attend to interest.
And just another word regarding the terms contributor or contributing.
IMHO these are chosen badly, I am pretty sure that only a very few
people arriving at the homepage already know that they want to
contribute, especially developers (which we are lacking, in contrary to
users) are mostly curious about how things work, despite wanting to
'contribute' in the first place.
Taking a look over the fence, we can see that the biggest competitors
product is not only successful because of its GUI provided
functionality, but also because of its programmability aspects and its
integration features into other applications (SAP, ...).
John

Kay
