There is a list of existing libraries and suggested formats at https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/DLP/Libraries . We need files for regression tests for most of the newer libraries (we use files collected from various sources, but these cannot be put into a public repository because of unclear license status). Concretely, we need files for: AbiWord, CorelDRAW (all versions), MS Publisher, Visio and Works Spreadsheet (all versions), Adobe Freehand (all versions). It would also be nice to have more test files for many of the formats supported by libe-book and libmwaw (or any test file in some cases). These should ideally be small files, each covering one isolated feature (or sub-feature) of the format. And the whole set should cover all the major features. As these would be published in a regression test repository, we need an acknowledgement that they are available under CC-BY-SA (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/) license. We also need files for introspecting unknown formats, e.g., these on the "suggested" list, but not limited to it. We are not committed to write a filter for any particular format. But having some files (even better, a person who can create more on request) definitely promotes the chance for that happening :-) As these files would only be used for our internal needs, any file is fine, regardless of its source. Of course, minimal documents are much better here too. (Actually, several variations of the same document are even better; e.g., a sligtly moved or resized shape, some characters added to a paragraph, etc.) D. -- 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.documentliberation.org/www/discuss/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
