@All: Given the fact that we're constantly cross-posting: is there any
preference to limit the discussion to one of the list or shall we
continue like that?

Don & Peter,
I think it is a very good opportunity to promote
Apache OpenOffice in
China marketing through Apache Asia Roadshow 2012. And
from another side,
the wide influence of OpenOffice can also help to
promote Apache.
I'd like to work with Peter together on it. The
target can be not only
attract individual volunteers to participate the
community, but also
demonstrate the business opportunities and attract local
business
partners.
While first of all, I'd like to know more details
about this event.
Perhaps Jimmy is the right contact?
Agree with you!
Per check with Jimmy, we need to give a outline draft now.
I will work on it in the evening, when I'm home from work. Do you
know --e.g. from Jimmy-- if the outline needs to meet certain
requirements?
Per my check with Jimmy, for now there is no certain requirements since
it is at a very early stage. We can just list the proposed
topics/agenda, with speakers and time needed.
For now, we should prepare for an 1 hour session, and when the overall
Roadshow agenda finalized, we will know if we can get more time...
So maybe 20 minutes for each of the 3 topics below? Not able to touch
too much details, just brief message for promotion...
I have changed the times a bit, coming up with an asymmetric proposal,
e.g. I think I can do my part in 15 minutes hence others have more time.
So, here's my outline for my talk but also a proposal for the whole session:
<<< ------------------------------------------------- >>>
Apache OpenOffice session at the Apache Asia Roadshow 2012
==========================================================
The below outline was drafted under the assumption that this seesion may
take up to 60 minutes (more time is always welcome).
1. Part: The history and status quo of OpenOffice
-------------------------------------------------
Speaker: Peter Junge
Time: 15 Minutes
Brief outline:
+ History before Apache
++ From StarOffice to OpenOffice.org to Apache OpenOffice
+ OpenOffice at Apache
++ New Challeges, e.g. License and different community vision
++ Organizational status quo of the project, promotion from incubator
to TLP
2. Part: What's happening around AOO in Beijing
-----------------------------------------------
Speakers: Staff from IBM and CS2C give short talks about their projects
Time: 25 minutes (NOTE: I see two ways to fill this part, either one
senior of both IBM and CS2C gives a summary or 4 Lightning talks.
Assuming that the audience we can expect is not too used to lightning
talks, I would propose the former.)
Possible Topics:
+ UOF support in AOO
+ Fidelity improvements
+ Quality improvements
+ OpenOffice business in China
+ <add more here>
3. Part: Apache OpenOffice and the cloud
Speakers: Liu Shenfeng (aka Simon) and Da Li (maybe CS2C can also
contribute)
Time: 20 minutes
Possible topics:
+ Social Integration with AOO
+ <add more here>
<<< ------------------------------------------------- >>>

indeed, let's put together such a session for the
Roadshow. A possible
brief outline would be:
- Introduction to and history of OpenOffice
+1, history and latest status. - I think you are the best one in
Beijing to
present this topic. So I wonder if you can prepare for an outline?
Yes.
- What's happening around AOO in Beijing respectively China.
Engineers of
IBM and of CS2C could share what they are working on.
+1 again. The UOF contribution, fidelity improvement, quality
improvement
efforts... I can check with Ji Yan, WeiKe or Liu Tao to see if
we can work
together on it.
That would be great.
- How businesses and users can benefit from AOO, ways to
join the AOO
community.
I think firstly CS2C can share their experience on building the
business on
AOO.
Secondly, since the theme of this Roadshow is cloud, we can
share the topic
of Social Integration with AOO. I will work with Da Li to
prepare for the
outline.
Sounds excellent.
How much time we can spend on the parts would depend on how
much time we
would get in total.
I'm still checking with Jimmy for how much time can we get. But
basically I
think we can start and propose the topics above.
The amount of time we have would be great to know.
Any suggestion?
Not yet, maybe later, e.g. after drafting that outline.

BTW, I just took a small surgery yesterday, and in the
following week I
have to spend most of the daytime in hospital for
subsequent treatment. So
my response to the mail threads may be slow. But I will
try to catch up on
this topic.
Get well soon!
Best regards,
peter

Hi Don,
thanks for the notice. Unfortunately, the Apache
Asia Roadshow 2012 seem
to lack of promoting the event. I only heard about
it by coincidence a
couple of days ago.

we plan the main topic around cloud computing:
open source really
produce a
basement to the cloud computing, like
Apache Hadoop and cloudstack;
welcome
any open source topic in or out of this area.
The Apache OpenOffice community has a
significant local
representation in
Beijing. I'm cc'ing the community
to alert our Chinese contributors to reach out
to you and explore the
possibility of adding an Apache OpenOffice
session to increase its visibility. We just
graduated to an Apache TLP,
so
we have a solid foundation upon which
to build with a strong global community. The
Chinese community is very
important and making a large contribution.
As I seem to be the only one in Beijing who's with
OpenOffice from the
beginning, I'd like to offer a talk about the
history of OOo, if that is
of
interest. As the 13th is a weekday, I just have to
find out if I can
take a
day off my daily job.
@concom: I cannot find anything about the Apache
Asia Roadshow 2012 at

Do you have a link to the Apache Asia Roadshow 2012
for me? I want to
write an event announcement at the homepage of the
Beijing Linux User
Group
(http://blug.chinalug.org/). We're reaching quite a
few geeks.
Best regards,
Peter
