  Concerns should have been risen at that time, it was discussed on the

   I'm asking because I really don't know it and in former OOo times we
   have done releases for languages with at least 80% translated UI
   [1]. So, maybe a change that I haven't seen in the last weeks.
  
 
 
  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
  RC.
 


 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 know this, it was an example only. If not complete I would not have
released it

 I and French community made some
 changes
 in translations.
 Did you think about rebuilding some (sk, fr, de maybe cn) binaries ?
 

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.

Juergen


 - Michal Hriň
 
 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.

it is your right to vote as you want and what your personal opinion is.
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.

(1) a major UI change/improvement by introducing a new sidebar concept
where the idea is the comes from IBM's Symphony. It's the combination of
reimplementing a complete new framework for sidebars and merging the

Releasing a new language should be rather easy and repeatable, so it is 
something that we can do once a month (but I can understand that August 
may be problematic due to holidays).


Ideally, we should have a monthly update, say around mid-month, where we:

1) Release new languages (of course, based on the same code revision as 
4.0, exactly as done for 3.4.1) that have reached 100% UI translation.


2) Formally unrelated to #1, we make (unreleased) dev snapshots 
available of languages that have UI at 75-99%.

People should work on a reliable build bot infra structure that can

we can configure more languages on demand.

I will be not the manual build bot ;-)

Currently the Windows buildbot of the SNAPSHOT tag does a weekly full 
build of all languages:

  http://ci.apache.org/projects/openoffice/#winsnap
Is any fully translated language missing from that list? Should 
semi-translated languages be built too?


Yes, we should build all languages on all other platforms too. But we 
don't have a Mac buildbot yet and until the build baseline is increased 
to XCode4 that will probably have to stay so. On the Linux64 things look 
much better but disk space on that buildbot used to be a problem. The 
Linux32 buildbot needs to be set up, but from a localization perspective 
its build result it is indistinguishable from the Linux64 build.


Also FreeBSD buildbot would be possible, but AFAIK Maho is working on a 
tinderbox build there, so setting up a buildbot would probably be wasted 
work. Also getting buildbots for OS/2 or Solaris X86 or Sparc just for 
the localized snapshot builds is probably wasted work unless there is a 
number of translators that only test on these platforms.

Mac release


Hi,

Issue 122732 [1]reminded me of the problem on Mac where the system 
complains that the AOO installation packaged does not come from the 
Apple app store.  As Ariel pointed out, this is covered in the release 
notes for AOO 3.4.0 and 3.4.1.


I am not sure that that many users would find the note in the release 
notes, follow the link to the solution and fix it.
I wonder if it would be a good idea to explain this at a more visible 
place, like the download button for the Mac version.  Does anybody know 
if that is possible?

+1 for releasing this RC as AOO 4.0

I have made many tests on my own, including a complete build of the src
release under MacOS and verifying the signature etc.

We can always do better and can fix more bugs but the overall situation
will not change. It will be always the same.

Please continue to verify translations and improve it, it's not wasted
time. These improvements will go in the next release. The same for the
new file type and application icons. We should continue the good work
and should integrate it asap on trunk.

Coordination on AOO 4.0 Release Announcement

As Juergen pointed out, the AOO 4.0 release vote has successfully
completed.  The release is approved.

However, please *do not* go out and start announcing the release yet.
We need to coordinate a few final steps before this is done,
including:

1. Provisioning the files to the Apache and SourceForge distribution directories

2. Waiting for the files to replicate within the mirror network (as
much as 24 hours)

3. Verify download scripts against actual AOO 4.0 files.

4. Complete the release notes.  Convert them to HTML.  Give some time
for translations.

5. Prepare announcement emails and blog post and webpage.

The above should all be done before we announce.   After we announce,
we have a few other items to do:

5. Update logos on social media sites

6. Enable update notification server

7. Follow up blog post +1 week.

I'd like to recommend that we aim for a noon UTC announcement on
Wednesday, if possible.  That would mean that items 1-5 are complete
then.  Release notes translations can roll in over time if needed.
But we should have the English Release Notes and the other items ready
to go.

Does this make sense?  Am I missing anything?  Anyone think that Wed.
is not possible?  It is better not to make an important announcement
at the end of the week (Thursday or Friday) since that tends to mute
the press coverage.

We should use the Release Dashboard to coordinate the status of these items:

https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OOOUSERS/4.0+Release+Dashboard

They wanted to be informed that is at least what I learned from earlier

Sidebar meta issue is closed


Hi,

the development of the sidebar is finished and the vote for our release 
is over.  Therefore I have closed the sidebar meta issue: bug 121420 now 
has status resolved/fixed.


I would like to thank everybody who has helped to make this happen.  A 
lot of people have contributed including, but not limited to, UX design, 
programming, testing, translation, documentation and discussion 
(providing new ideas).


I think that we did a great job.

Possible show stopper on Windows 8, please verify

2013-07-15 Thread Samer Mansour

I just got my testlink set up, and received a couple test cases 7 hours ago.

The first test I went to do I couldn't complete because it caused what I
think is a show stopper for windows 8 (if its reproducible)

Can anyone copy or cut contents to their system clipboard in windows 8
using the 4.0.0 RC snapshot?  It causes an immediate crash every time for
me.

 Hi,

 Issue 122732 [1]reminded me of the problem on Mac where the system
 complains that the AOO installation packaged does not come from the Apple
 app store.  As Ariel pointed out, this is covered in the release notes for
 AOO 3.4.0 and 3.4.1.


We should add this again to Release Notes for 4.0.0 and Install Guide.


 I am not sure that that many users would find the note in the release
 notes, follow the link to the solution and fix it.
 I wonder if it would be a good idea to explain this at a more visible
 place, like the download button for the Mac version.  Does anybody know if
 that is possible?


I'm not sure about this one. This happens as soon as correct download is
identified by the Download page?

bug sorry if its a duplicate.

It is windows 8 64-bit. Crashes on copy and cut.  Paste seems to not be
affected.

The four steps Rob gave in the bug are the minimum required steps to
reproduce.

happened again since. My OS is Win8 64 bit too.

This may very well have been caused by a regression bug I have introduced
(and later fixed). It was usually triggered by copying or removing

OK, that was not very clear :-)

The bug *fix* is in the release and therefore the bug is not.

It is possible. However I don't like to have an exception for users of 
platform X. This would make the index.html more unreadable than it is 
already.


Therefore I've created a general text and link to the release notes (of 
course, it's still intermediate):

1) Directly in the main green box.
2) In a second sub-green box.

Please have a look and tell what you think. IMHO 1) is better.

A forum user found a problem, not present on 3.4.1, with the release

pictures get corrupted when rotating them. I did not find any report

https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=122753

It seems quite serious. What do you think?


That the Bitmap is not inserted is likely a problem with the cache. Set 
the value in Tools  Options  Memory to for example 12MB Memory per object.


The bad display of the rotated jpg-picture might be a moire effect. 
Please zoom in and see, whether it remains. You might test to switch 
on/off anti-aliasing in addition. I do not see such effect on my screen.

It's not just a bad display: it is exported to pdf

http://people.apache.org/~rgb-es/rotation.pdf

But I just see a weird behaviour: Reopening the document, rotation works
without problems on the fox picture, but if I copy the fox picture → paste
special as bitmap → get the empty box → rotation fails again on the
original picture.

Increasing the memory per object does not change this behaviour.

Re: [RESULT][VOTE]: Release OpenOffice 4.0 (RC)

Hi,

the upload is finished already. We agreed on a structure to separate the
binaries from the src release and make the binaries available in a
special directory for Sourceforge.

dist/openoffice/4.0.0/source- contains the src release +
signatures/checksum/hashes

dist/openoffoce/4.0.0/binaries - contains the
signatures/checksum/hashes only. For security reasons we keep them on
the Apache dist folder and provide them from there as in the past.

dist/externaldist/openoffice/4.0.0/binaries - contains all the
binaries (SDK, full install, lang packs) + signatures/checkssum/hashes

A complete file list can be found under

http://people.apache.org/~jsc/aoo40_dist_files.txt

That the Bitmap is not inserted is likely a problem with the cache. Set
the value in Tools Options Memory to for example 12MB Memory per object.

The bad display of the rotated jpg-picture might be a moire effect.

It's not just a bad display: it is exported to pdf

Increasing the memory per object does not change this behaviour.

I added two new attachments to the issue, one an odg file with the

  Wednesday, if possible.  That would mean that items 1-5 are complete
  then.
 
 
  OK  - a lot depends on uploads and mirror situation
 
 
   Release notes translations can roll in over time if needed.
  But we should have the English Release Notes and the other items ready
  to go.
 
  Does this make sense?  Am I missing anything?  Anyone think that Wed.
  is not possible?  It is better not to make an important announcement
  at the end of the week (Thursday or Friday) since that tends to mute
  the press coverage.
 
  We should use the Release Dashboard to coordinate the status of these
  items:

It is possible. However I don't like to have an exception for users of
platform X. This would make the index.html more unreadable than it is
already.

Therefore I've created a general text and link to the release notes (of
course, it's still intermediate):

http://ooo-site.staging.**apache.org/download/test/**index.htmlhttp://ooo-site.staging.apache.org/download/test/index.html

1) Directly in the main green box.
2) In a second sub-green box.

Please have a look and tell what you think. IMHO 1) is better.

Marcus

1) is better.

I like 1 better, too. But it still looks too prominent. We don't want
to scare our users (when only a minority will run into this problem).
Maybe an explanation in the release notes is enough.

maybe change wording to Click here for known installation issues

I know this is going to the Release Notes page...but maybe we should focus
on highlighting installation.

I just edited Release Notes to duplicate the Mac OS X info in the
Upgrading/Installing section. Left it in Known Issues as well.

Great thanks.

Hi,

the upload is finished already. We agreed on a structure to separate the
binaries from the src release and make the binaries available in a
special directory for Sourceforge.

I've created them for testing purpose only.

Is anyone working on uploading all the reaming files?

I would expect that there is an automatism to grep the files from the
Apache Dist folder(s). Was this not the way how it was done for 3.4.x?

Actually I wanted to create a TOC for the release notes. However, it's
still locked by Herbert or Andre. Then we will have the headlines as

  As Juergen pointed out, the AOO 4.0 release vote has successfully
  completed.  The release is approved.
 
  However, please *do not* go out and start announcing the release yet.
  We need to coordinate a few final steps before this is done,
  including:
 
  1. Provisioning the files to the Apache and SourceForge distribution
  directories
 
  2. Waiting for the files to replicate within the mirror network (as
  much as 24 hours)
 
  3. Verify download scripts against actual AOO 4.0 files.
 
  4. Complete the release notes.  Convert them to HTML.  Give some time
  for translations.
 
 
  Does this mean we'll move English  Release Notes to web as always?
 

 Personally, I think that is a pain in the ass to convert the wiki
 Release Notes to HTML.  Remember, our goal has been to make the
 Release Notes nicer, with more graphics, etc.  So this is going to
 make conversion more difficult.  But if someone really wants to do
 that, then I have no objections.

 -Rob


 Given our past thread on this, I didn't know what the decision was.


My takeaway was there were concerns with having uncontrolled changes
to the Release Notes.   But if we like the wiki as a technology there
are ways of handling this.  For example, we could link to a specific
revision of the wiki page from the download page.  That allows us to
be constant by default, but preserves flexibility to update it later
if needed.

-Rob

 For now, we will link to the Community wiki area I guess, and deal with
 other issues on this matter later.



 
  5. Prepare announcement emails and blog post and webpage.
 
  The above should all be done before we announce.   After we announce,
  we have a few other items to do:
 
  5. Update logos on social media sites
 
  6. Enable update notification server
 
  7. Follow up blog post +1 week.
 
  I'd like to recommend that we aim for a noon UTC announcement on

[Discuss}{Release Notes 4.0.0]

2013-07-15 Thread Keith N. McKenna

Given the negative press we have received in some quarters about having 
dropped language translations, would it make sense to add a notice in 
the Release Notes for 4.0.0 about languages that were available for 
3.4.x but not available for 4.0.0.


My personal feeling is that it would be good since it would give us a 
place to direct user with support questions to for a definitive 
statement, but I also recognize how controversial this topic can be.

Negative press? Do you have a link?

Remember, we didn't drop anything.  For example, we had released no
translation of French 4.0 last week, because 4.0 was not done.   Now
that 4.0 is done and the translation is done, we can release both.
Does that mean we dropped French last week?  No it just means it was
not ready to release yet.

When the same conditions are met for other languages, we release them
as well.  So we're not dropping anything.  We're merely releasing the
translations that are done now rather than waiting longer for the ones
that are still in progress.

We did the exact same thing before with AOO 3.4.1.

 My personal feeling is that it would be good since it would give us a place
 to direct user with support questions to for a definitive statement, but I
 also recognize how controversial this topic can be.


I added a statement to the release notes explaining that more
translations are coming and telling how interested parties can
volunteer to help.  Is that good enough?

Roberto,

I got the rsync URL from the infra team, if there is a problem we have to
figure it out with infra. I haven't used rsync and don't know what the
problem is.
We just created a new directory that is not synchronized with the Apache
mirrors and is today mainly for you or other externals.

just to make it even more clear, you have to rsync
dist/externaldist/openoffice only. There are the binaries and only the
signatures files, the checksum and hashes are duplicated. We want them on the
apache mirrors and I duplicate them for simplification only

We see similar things with emails to the private and press mailing
lists.  We get a support question sent to these lists every few days.
 It is reasonable to believe that we have a similar fraction of wiki
users who just don't read the instructions.

However, in this case, I'm still waiting for the first real case of
someone using the form for its intended purpose.  Until that happens I
can't really calculate its success rate ;-)

It is essential a problem of scale.  It is hard to give individual
attention to 50 million users.  So we need to concentrate on self-help
via FAQ's, etc., and then direct users towards the best tools for
interactive help, e.g., the forums.  Anything that is confusing to
users, even at the 1% level, will lead to a flood of emails.

 reproduce.


An update on this crash.  I was eventually able to reproduce it on
Windows 8, 64-bit.  This was an initial install, not an upgrade.
Samer saw it on an upgrade install.

I worked on the stack trace with Herbert (fortunately my Windows 8
machine had a debugger installed).  Herbert gave me a patch to test.
It appears to work on my machine.  We're waiting to hear back from
Samer on whether it worked for him.

I realize this would be a Royal Pain of the First Order, but I wonder
if this defect is worth respinning the RC?

Regards,

-Rob

  The first test I went to do I couldn't complete because it caused what I
  think is a show stopper for windows 8 (if its reproducible)
 
  Can anyone copy or cut contents to their system clipboard in windows 8
  using the 4.0.0 RC snapshot?  It causes an immediate crash every time for
  me.
 

 There was some discussion of this on another thread.  Someone reported
 a clipboard crash on Windows 8 with an earlier snapshot (not the RC)
 but was not able to reproduce it.  I tried yesterday on a clean
 Windows 8 install and could not get a crash, copying, pasting, etc.,
 content.

 But you are saying it is cut not copy.  I can try that.

 Also, are you running 32-bit or 64-bit Windows 8?

yes, I have, on the latest version of open office using windows 7 and 
that is how I got the error code 42 extraction failed. I am running the 
latest version of java to interact with the java access bridge so JAWS 
can work with open office, as well, if that helps.

Given the negative press we have received in some quarters about having
dropped language translations, would it make sense to add a notice in the
Release Notes for 4.0.0 about languages that were available for 3.4.x but
not available for 4.0.0.



Negative press? Do you have a link?


Was remembering a conversation from this list awhile back, mostly 
rumblings from the blogs.  Unfortunately a quick search of the archive 
wasn't able to uncover anything. May be just my memory is getting faulty 
with age.


Remember, we didn't drop anything.  For example, we had released no
translation of French 4.0 last week, because 4.0 was not done.   Now
that 4.0 is done and the translation is done, we can release both.
Does that mean we dropped French last week?  No it just means it was
not ready to release yet.


Rob I know we didn't drop anything and most of our users will know it 
also; however when we due a major release that does not include 
languages that where there before it will be noticed and commented on. 
The purpose of this post was not to rehash the minutia, but to solicit 
informed opinion as to whether an preemptive entry in the languages 
section of the release notes could help ward off some support requests 
and to give the people doing the support a place to point concerned 
people to.




When the same conditions are met for other languages, we release them
as well.  So we're not dropping anything.  We're merely releasing the
translations that are done now rather than waiting longer for the ones
that are still in progress.

We did the exact same thing before with AOO 3.4.1.


My personal feeling is that it would be good since it would give us a place
to direct user with support questions to for a definitive statement, but I
also recognize how controversial this topic can be.



I added a statement to the release notes explaining that more
translations are coming and telling how interested parties can
volunteer to help.  Is that good enough?



Whether it is good enough is not for me to decide but it does accomplish 
the intent of the initial question.

 Hi,


 the upload is finished already. We agreed on a structure to separate
 the
 binaries from the src release and make the binaries available in a
 special directory for Sourceforge.

 There is a 4.0.0 staged folder set up which is good (
 https://sourceforge.net/projects/openofficeorg.mirror/**
 **files/4.0.0/
 https://sourceforge.net/**projects/openofficeorg.mirror/**files/4.0.0/
 https://**sourceforge.net/projects/**openofficeorg.mirror/files/4.**
 0.0/https://sourceforge.net/projects/openofficeorg.mirror/files/4.0.0/

 )


 But
 the only files uploaded are some de binaries have been uploaded at
 https://sourceforge.net/projects/openofficeorg.mirror/
 https://sourceforge.net/**projects/openofficeorg.mirror/**
 files/4.0.0/binaries/de/https**://sourceforge.net/projects/**
 openofficeorg.mirror/files/4.**0.0/binaries/de/
 https://sourceforge.net/projects/openofficeorg.mirror/files/4.0.0/binaries/de/
 


 Those are ok, but there are no other files uploaded to SF yet for 4.0.

 I've created them for testing purpose only.


 Is anyone working on uploading all the reaming files?

 I would expect that there is an automatism to grep the files from the
 Apache Dist folder(s). Was this not the way how it was done for 3.4.x?

 Ok, if we need to do that I need to know where can we rsync copy files
 from. Please communicate is ASAP because updating mirrors takes a lot.

 I ask that because the old location doesn't have 4.x
 (rsync.apache.org::apache-**dist/incubator/ooo/files/)
 and we can't rsync files from there.


 a bit lower in this mail thread Juergen stated this:

 rsync Url: rsync.apache.org::apache-dist-external


 We get this error:
 $ rsync rsync.apache.org::apache-dist-external .
 @ERROR: chroot failed
 rsync error: error starting client-server protocol (code 5) at
 /SourceCache/rsync/rsync-42/rsync/main.c(1398) [receiver=2.6.9]


 If it's not a temporary problem, you can try to assemble the right URL
 from the content of this, maybe it's working:

 http://people.apache.org/~jsc/aoo40_dist_files.txt
 http://people.apache.org/~jsc/aoo40_external_dist_files.txt

 PS:
 I don't know how much you are doing with rsync, so maybe this will help
 also:


 http://www.2rosenthals.net/wordpress/rsync-error-5-may-be-exactly-what-it-says-165/

 Otherwise Juergen should help out.

 Sorry for the delay.

 Roberto,

 I got the rsync URL from the infra team, if there is a problem we have to
 figure it out with infra. I haven't used rsync and don't know what the
 problem is.
 We just created a new directory that is not synchronized with the Apache
 mirrors and is today mainly for you or other externals.

 just to make it even more clear, you have to rsync
 dist/externaldist/openoffice only. There are the binaries and only the
 signatures files, the checksum and hashes are duplicated. We want them on
 the apache mirrors and I duplicate them for simplification only

 Juergen,

You still need to fix the chroot error in the apache-dist-external rsync
module.
Either the path configured is wrong or there is a permission problem (by
default rsync accesses data using user nobody).

Can you please help this?

Second best if you know where are those files and you want to upload them
this would work too.

Let me know asap.

Thanks

 dist/openoffice/4.0.0/source - contains the src release +


 signatures/checksum/hashes


 dist/openoffoce/4.0.0/binaries - contains the
 signatures/checksum/hashes only. For security reasons we keep them on
 the Apache dist folder and provide them from there as in the past.

 dist/externaldist/openoffice/4.0.0/binaries - contains all
 the

 binaries (SDK, full install, lang packs) + signatures/checkssum/hashes

In this specific case, for AOO 4.0,  I'm suggesting we release any
additional languages that are 100% on September 16th.  This is similar
to what we did for AOO 3.4.1.  After that date I think we then wait
for AOO 4.1.

Releasing a new language should be rather easy and repeatable, so it is
something that we can do once a month (but I can understand that August
may be problematic due to holidays).

Ideally, we should have a monthly update, say around mid-month, where we:

1) Release new languages (of course, based on the same code revision as
4.0, exactly as done for 3.4.1) that have reached 100% UI translation.

2) Formally unrelated to #1, we make (unreleased) dev snapshots
available of languages that have UI at 75-99%.

People should work on a reliable build bot infra structure that can
provide builds for all major platforms (Linux, Windows, MacOS). And then
we can configure more languages on demand.
While there are periodic complaints about the build bots (e.g.  when 
there are breaking changes made to the source tree), the main bots are 
pretty stable.  They mainly break when broken.  If you look at Windows 
Snapshot build http://ci.apache.org/builders/aoo-w7snap/ , the Windows 
nightly build http://ci.apache.org/builders/aoo-win7/ , and the Linux 
64bit build http://ci.apache.org/builders/openoffice-linux64-nightly/ 
, you will notice that they are quite stable (esp. with the fix to the 
hanging process issue)


We can ask again at infra for our CentOS linux 32 bot and Mac hardware, 
and we have waited long enough on that front.  But, are there any issues 
we can identify with the current Windows snapshot build that make it 
unusable?
We can configure more languages on these bots on demand right now. Is 
there a technical reason you don't like them?


A.




I will be not the manual build bot ;-)

Proposing is fine but please think also about the realization.
