Re: Work on Change-Tracking
On 27/06/14 21:45, Dennis E. Hamilton wrote: Louis, you ask an interesting question. I checked on the ODF SDK incubator project and there is no specific support for change-tracking of any flavor there. The higher-level Document API (called Simple API historically) has no methods for enabling, reviewing, or even recognizing tracked changes. Although that API could hide the complexities of change-tracking, there is no indication that it is going on under the covers. In particular, there is no way to provide the provenance metadata that is stored with a tracked change (the office:change-info element). I have no idea what would happen at the Simple API on manipulating a document that already had tracked-change information in it. The lower-level ODF DOM API has classes that are derived from the ODF Document RNG Schema, so the piece parts have to be there -- that is, the element types involved in tracked-changes are all present in the DOM and presumably they place properly within the hierarchical structure of the document format. Coordination between change marks and components within a text:tracked-changes element are apparently an exercise left to the student. Although the ODF DOM classes are derived from the ODF Document RNG Schema, there is evidently a prospect for introducing foreign elements, attributes, and attribute values. I have not looked deeply enough to see how the necessary namespace bindings can be introduced for foreign elements and attributes (and foreign QNames and prefixes in attribute values). I'm not certain how the ODF SDK is helpful in this area, unless it is for proof-of-concept work and manufacturing of test documents. It is something to think about. It is also important to determine whether documents with tracked changes of any sort can be manipulated via the ODF SDK, especially the Simple API. I also think it would be interesting to see what the ODF Validator that is part of the ODF SDK project would do or could be adapted to handle with regard to documents complicated by the presence of tracked changes. I don't know how much referential-integrity checking is done at that level, although it would be useful to have that with regard to all cases of cross-referencing within the document structure.

English Dictionaries updated - 1-JUL-2014
Hello! Just to let everyone know that I have updated the English Dictionaries: http://extensions.openoffice.org/en/project/english-dictionaries-apache-openoffice In it, I have released V2.14 of the forked British Dictionary which now has 140276 words with 522 new words since my previous release. I also replaced the Publisher Name from Apache OpenOffice to Marco A.G.Pinto since Ariel and Andrea suggested the change, because it was incompatible with AOO's License. Can it be added to the trunk of AOO 4.1.1? Thanks! Kind regards, Marco A.G.Pinto --- --

WHY? As you probably know, every unique platform we support increases the effort required to build, maintain and test, if we want to preserve the expected quality level for users. Looking at the current and historical numbers we saw a sharp decline in the number of MacOS 10.6 users. Since we were working on a major release of AOO it made sense to make the break then. Remember, it is never a question of IF we drop support for old platforms, but of WHEN we drop support for older platforms. That said, there are users on older platforms, including PowerPC. That's fine. If there is sufficient interest this might be a good business for a 3rd party. We see this already with 3rd party ports for Apache OpenOffice for Solaris and OS/2. The Apache License allows 3rd parties to do this. There is nothing that requires that all porting work be filtered through or approved by us. The code is there for anyone to use.

Getting involved - Introducing myself
Hi developers, I would like to get involved in open office apache project and do some volunteer work. First of all, I would introduce myself - I'm Amali from Victoria, Australia. I've got work experience of around four years, mostly in C++. Operating systems I've worked with and known about are Unix, Linux, and Windows. I've got Junior Linux certification LPIC-1 as well. I'm interested in C++, Python, Perl, Linux projects and I would like to do documentation, testing and reporting bugs, fix bugs, and code new features; however, to start off, I think of doing small, easy tasks before going to medium or difficult tasks. I've got work experience in C++; but for python, I would like to learn and practise this skill. That's all from me for now. I will contact you for help regarding the tasks from now onwards. Thanks, Amali.
