I would like to volunteer as technical writer
Hello, I am a Middleware Administrator with vast experience on a range of products like Weblogic, Apache HTTP server, IBM Websphere MQ, JBOSs etc. I have produced a lot of documentation during my stint as technical lead for various banking/financial projects. I owe 99% of my expertise to the knowledge I gleaned from technical information freely available on the internet and I am interested in 'giving back' in some way to the open source community. I came across this Call for Volunteers while surfing and would like to contribute as a technical writer in any way possible, if you need me. Please feel free to reach out to me on archananagara...@gmail.com Regards Archana

/opt/openoffice4/.openoffice/4/user, which is global to all users.
How do I configure the private user directories to be created in the

I know from previous discussions here that you are doing a huge effort
to port OpenOffice to Solaris (and I apologize if others have already
answered; mail delivery is still delayed due to technical problems);
anyway, assuming that the basics are the same as in other UNIX-like
systems, the archived build define their own location for the user
profile and this is why you see a common one.
The profile location is defined in a file named bootstraprc, which you
will find at something like:
/opt/openoffice4/program/bootstraprc
This is the content of a bootstraprc file with per-user profile settings:
[Bootstrap]
BaseInstallation=${OOO_BASE_DIR}
InstallMode=installmode
ProductKey=OpenOffice 4.1.0
UserInstallation=$SYSUSERCONFIG/.openoffice/4/user

ErrorReportPort=80

Re: Reporting a problem with the OpenOffice website
I had originally tried typing in http://www.openoffice.org and got a page cannot be found response. Then I googled to find out if your site was still available, I found some links worked like the main address https://www.openoffice.org but others like http://www.openoffice.org/download and http://www.openoffice.org/product/draw.html did not. I see they are working today regardless of having http or https so it may have already been fixed...

Re: Forward planning for OO 5.0

Now that OO 4.1 is released (and the tidy up of loose ends is in progress), perhaps it is time to start discussion on proposals for improvements and additions to OO 5.0. Where should this best be done? Is here the best place? And how should it be discussed - every suggestion in one thread or one thread for one AOO module? What should be the main intention for acceptable improvements and additions? here is of course the place where we discuss future releases. Anybody can propose things and we can discuss it. For IBM we have clear priority for the future and that is OOXML and we will propose and discuss details soon. But I hope others have ideas as well ... We know that developer resources are limited, nobody should expect that others do the work. We will try to find a compromise between our ideas and priorities and general bug fixing and other ideas. But I believe that we set our priorities in a way that help the project to grow and help the project forward.

For IBM we have clear priority for the future and that is OOXML and we will propose and discuss details soon. But I hope others have ideas as well ... By Educoo, we are thinking about a mechanism to change the profile on the fly by taking advantage of the speed of the current launch of AOO (many thanks for that). The idea would be to can install, in the same version of AOO, some predefined profiles, adapted to different levels of users (children, adolescents, adults, seniors, etc. ) so that the user can switch between them and can use the more adapted for him. OK, that's not a revolution, but that would allow a teacher to adapt to the age of the students of his classroom, for example. A+ -- gw
Re: [www] NEW language Selection Dropdown!
I've created a page for testing the new language dropdown here: http://ooo-site.staging.apache.org/test/templates/brand-template-with-language-select-without-vars.html Notes: * Ignore the surrounding templates that the python script attaches to the page, and focus on the central area, which is a duplicate of the brand template above it, with addition of the dropdown box. * The template example lacks variables, so I commented out a few lines, and hardcoded a few strings. * Currently, the selected language is English, but eventually, localized sites will set the default selected language according to their language, by changing a variable in brand.mdtext (or I'll do it). Please test it a bit, comment here, and if all goes well, I'll move the code into the site brand.html template, to affect all sites. Tal Ken, I'm sorry, I tried to create the /content structure in /content/test, and failed. I can't copy files from /content, without checking out the whole 9GB folder, and I don't think it's possible to create inner sites with templates, within the /content/test directory, at this stage. Hence, I created a simple page to test the func. of the dropdown only.

Thanks for this! It looks good enough to me to go live. Please allow a bit more of the usual 72 hours for feedback, since mail delivery seems to be back to normal but we may still experience some delays. I had already reviewed the select list and code when it was on staging, and it's OK. My accessibility concern was not on the select, but on the JavaScript manipulating it. I also see some alignment issues in the select (it seems that the drop-down is a few pixels taller than it should be), see http://i.imgur.com/inLcLeD.png but this is definitely minor. And in general all these problems can be addressed later. My main concern is that, even limiting it to the 38 released languages, I see that quite a few localized websites still need an update. This might indeed be an occasion to discuss on the l10n list how to handle this, and what criteria should be met for a site to be listed here. Based on this, I would still include the Other item at the end of the select as a link to native-lang.html then go live with the 38 languages and immediately ask the l10n list for volunteers in updating the relevant sites.

On one hand we can discuss and collect ideas, but on the other hand these ideas need to be concretely supported by developer resources to pass from the brainstorming phase to the planning phase. At the level of brainstorming, for example, I believe that a priority for a new major release would be a better integration with our online resources (easier ways, built-in in the application, to reach our sites for feedback, volunteering, support...). But if and how this can happen will depend on the interest that current and new developers have in this.
