Hi Michael, *
Nice to hear your consent :)
I figured that it would be too late for 3.5, but I wasn't aware that
both Apache and TDF still need time for the relicensing.
Could you or anyone else give a guesstimate how long that will take?
Maybe it'd be useful to have a wiki page for collecting suggestions of
features to be adopted. That might make it easier to keep track of
those features.
Cheers
Alex
I just discovered that Apache OpenOffice now uses a new implementation
to handle SVGs natively. Since there are a lot of bug reports in LO
regarding broken SVGs I'd think using their code would be the best
solution. What do you think?
Sure - sounds reasonable; Armin's a sharp guy and does some great work;
IIRC the core code needed some improvements to make this work really
well.
A couple of things need sorting out that will make this miss our 3.5
release: first the feature-freeze is ~today. Second - we need to get the
licensing situation sorted out; as/when Oracle have finally finished
re-licensing under AL2, and we have an MPLv2 out - we'll do the audit /
digging work to re-license our code-base MPL/LGPLv3+ (on top of AL2). At
that point we'll be able to cherry-pick such things from AOOI easily
enough.
So - sorry for the delay :-) but it does look like a nice improvement,
for sure.
All the best,
Michael.
