But as I mentioned earlier it would help us if concerns are more detailed and more qualified that we can take it serious. I can only guess that you mean the problem regarding Windows 8 64 bit and here several people tried to reproduce the issue but nobody was able to reproduce. For me there is no copy/paste problem at the moment with the RC.

no, the whole process takes time and these of course useful improvements
will go in the next version.
I recommend to create a new issue for translation updates. Otherwise it
is hard to track that something has changed.

So the version tags would not change. (Why should they if the code has not changed?). Of course, we don't re-release the existing languages. If you recall we did this exact same thing with AOO 3.4.1 when we released Danish. To do otherwise brings needless complications, such as: 1) Either re-releasing new versions for existing languages, where only the version tags have changed, but no code or language strings have changed, e.g., in Spanish, French, Italian, etc. or 2) Having much more complicated update notification logic, where now we need to track that AOO 3.4.1 Danish upgrades to AOO 4.0.1, but AOO 3.4.1 French upgrades to AOO 4.0.0. And this complication then lives on to the next release, where Danish 4.0.1 upgrades to AOO 4.1.0, but there is no French 4.0.1, etc. Remember: We can always unambiguously determine what source was used for what binary, even if we incrementally add more languages for 4.0 later.

I would be against releasing 4.0 with e.g. 8 languages, and then after a few weeks re-release it with the same version number just more languages. When 4.0 is released thats final to me, next is 4.0.1 or 4.1 Or are you talking about releasing language packs, which is quite different ? rgds jan I. > > Regards, > Andrea. > > - > To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org > For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@openoffice.apache.org > >

As Juergen wrote, it is expected that we add more languages as they become ready. We'll probably add them in small batches and not one-by-one, in order to have a more efficient process. But if you reach 100% in the UI we will make sure you don't have to wait more than a few weeks to get your language officially released.

This seems quite reasonable to me. We need a little time for regrouping,
and dealing with perhaps some minor issues that might pop up from the 4.0
release.
Re the old stated "policy" on :
http://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Release_criteria#Localization_requirements
If this no longer our policy, we should definitely change this.
But...I think we should first discuss the policy. What levels of
translation do we feel are acceptable if not at 100%. What do we absolutely
require to be translated? Menus vs help files, for example.
Once we determine translation thresholds, we should include the policy on
the "Native Language" page on the project web site:

There is obviously some tension in our goals here:
1) We want to release the good work that is already done, so users who
can enjoy the new features, bug fixes, interop improvements, etc.
2) We also have some languages that are "almost" done and don't want
to "miss the train".
IMHO the way to resolve this tension is to let the current 4.0 train
leave the station, but announce another train is leaving soon. Maybe
we can set a goal of September 16th for either a 4.0.1 (if we're
making code changes for a new critical bug) or a language update of
4.0.0 (if there are only new translations). Hopefully we all remember
that we did this with AOO 3.4.1 as well, adding more languages after
we released.
>From what I can tell there is a steady stream of interest in
translating AOO to other languages. There will always be another
language that is "almost ready". That is what success looks like. We
need to handle new translations when they are ready. We can't hold up
the train, but we also can't make volunteers wait too long for the
next train.
So how does September 16th sound for releasing additional languages?
Is that enough time?

Hmm... I see the problem with side bar translation. And I'm very
sorry that I was in my research paper and did not notice the previous
discussion. However, there are several issues of concern:
1. I am going to give a talk in our largest local open source
conference (COSCUP 2013, http://coscup.org/) on 8/3, and plan to
announce OpenOffice 4.0. It is the first talk after the key notes. It
would be very embarrassing to announce it without a local version
released.
2. There would be a large-scale deployment around August or September
(6000-7000) in a government department, and they are planning to join
our development force in order to fix some Chinese problems in
governmental use. If OpenOffice 4.0 Traditional Chinese version is not
available at that time, we could only give them 3.4.1, which their
development could not be based on.
I've asked our local community to help the translation in urgent.
If we can finish the Traditional Chinese sidebar translation with
certain amount, could it be OK to release it?
let translate the UI First and then we can figure out what's possible.
Hopefully some other languages can continue the translation as well and
we can think about a language only release where I am a big fan of to
support local communities.
But in general we have discussed it and I would have not released German
(my mother language) if the UI translation would have been not complete.
Just to make sure that we need active local communities who participate
in the project or at least in the translation part.
Hi Juergen,
Yust today German translation is done. I and French community made some
changes
in translations.
Did you think about rebuilding some (sk, fr, de maybe cn) binaries ?
- Michal Hriň

let translate the UI First and then we can figure out what's possible.
Hopefully some other languages can continue the translation as well and we can
think about a language only release where I am a big fan of to support local
communities.
But in general we have discussed it and I would have not released German (my
mother language) if the UI translation would have been not complete.
Just to make sure that we need active local communities who participate in the
project or at least in the translation part.
It would be even better if the help would be translated as well but that is a
much higher burden and we are more flexible here.

Hmm... I see the problem with side bar translation. And I'm very
sorry that I was in my research paper and did not notice the previous
discussion. However, there are several issues of concern:
1. I am going to give a talk in our largest local open source
conference (COSCUP 2013, http://coscup.org/) on 8/3, and plan to
announce OpenOffice 4.0. It is the first talk after the key notes. It
would be very embarrassing to announce it without a local version released.
2. There would be a large-scale deployment around August or September
(6000-7000) in a government department, and they are planning to join
our development force in order to fix some Chinese problems in
governmental use. If OpenOffice 4.0 Traditional Chinese version is not
available at that time, we could only give them 3.4.1, which their
development could not be based on.
I've asked our local community to help the translation in urgent.
If we can finish the Traditional Chinese sidebar translation with
certain amount, could it be OK to release it?

For this particular case, the translation of the main 4.0.0 feature is
incomplete https://translate.apache.org/zh_TW/aoo40/svx/source/sidebar/
How serious would it be to release this translation in such a state? The
same applies to other languages released in 3.4.* but not in this 4.0.0

Rob's idea is one I have been thinking about as well. To the point of a 72 hour VOTE. I think that ONE WEEK would be good for the project if only because it would allow people to adjust their schedules. Personally I prefer the weekend, but a VOTE on Apache OpenOffice took me about 4-8 hours of work for 3.4 and 3.4.1 - and my time is committed this weekend. So, if I have time I'll vote.

Does anyone have a script to verify signatures and hashes for a release? In previous releases I'd download everything and do some ad-hoc commands, but not as automated as it could be. Since we have a regular directory structure it should be possible to have a script that would verify everything and produce a report.

[DISCUSS][VOTE]: Release OpenOffice 4.0 (RC)
What is not serious that I plan a 72 hr vote that is normal at Apache? We are not loner an incubator project and 72 hr are enough. The RC is not so much different than the snapshot before. You can vote -1 if you want but I hope that you take it serious and don't vote simply and without any real argument. The argument that "you" would need more time is not valid for me. It's always interesting to see such comments in the end phase. But what do you think did we over the past weeks? We analyzed bugs, problems, fixed all serious ones and continue general testing. I proposed a release schedule, proposed an update and we continue to work hard to achieve this date. Some continuity in the things we propose and announce is not a bad thing. If we detect serious problems we can always take the necessary actions. Let us concentrate on the end game ... We still have some things to do and the polishing and completion of the release notes is one thing. If you disagree to the proposed schedule you should have raised your concerns a little bit earlier.

please don't discuss in a vote thread @Raphael, I disagree we do testing on snapshots since weeks.
