Re: Chinese forum out of order

2016-12-10 Thread Hagar Delest

I think we should:
1. Remove the spam
2. Put the forum back on-line but read-only
3. Wait for a team willing to continue the service before unlocking it

Spam removal can be performed by power users from another area (this is what 
was done for the Vietnamese forum before it was locked). However, we need 
someone with full access to grant those power users an admin or at least a 
moderator role: since the users databases are independent, registration is 
needed.

This was deliberately taken down some weeks ago since it was unmaintained; this 
was announced on this list. It was unclear at the time if anyone would like to 
take over and do the normal maintenance (approve posts and users, clean spam 
etc); shall we instead consider it to be offline and just put a notice saying 
that we are looking for moderators, and while at it fix the homepage to avoid 
broken links to the Chinese forum? I have all the needed permissions on the 
server.

Regards,
  Andrea.

Re: [Homepage] social icons

Hi Marcus,

You are talking about: https://www.openoffice.org/social/index.html

I definitely plan to update that page, but that will take some time as I
must see how the twitter widget can be incorporated and how the overall
look will be...

+1 for your other suggestions, but I think identi.ca can be removed as
Ariel made a post there, that the forum will not be updated on a regular
base. For me most of the graphics are missing, too. It looks unmaintained.

But what I meant was the "front" page: https://www.openoffice.org

Adding the YouTube icon in addition to Blog, Facebook, Twitter and
Google+ will take about 10 min.
When this is done I am planning to bring the german page
https://www.openoffice.org/de to the same level.

regards, Matthias

Re: gbuild porting guide

The future

52 of 182 modules (29%) are currently using gbuild, up from 40 (22%)
before my recent conversion burst began.

I am hacking and porting as many modules to gbuild as possible, as
soon as possible. The most important thing right now is to build up
experience and document as much of gbuild as possible (and sadly
dmake/build.pl/deliver, since understanding their files comes first),
to prepare for tackling the large modules and making changes to the
gbuild makefiles themselves.

The UNO modules seem easier to convert and many are really small. I am
currently converting the Java modules, and javaunohelper should be the
next to get committed.

I think another group needs to be added for libraries like
libstore.so.3 whose naming format isn't provided by any library group.
Yacc support also needs adding to gbuild for several modules that use
it to parse languages (IDL compilers, main/connectivity for parsing
SQL queries, etc.), and other gbuild infrastructure probably needs
developing further.

It seems Sun was trying to implement a "split build" before all the
modules were ported, where modules in first part are built with
build.pl, and those in the second part are built purely with a single
GNU make instance that can build multiple modules concurrently at a
file level, with maximum parallelization to give the highest
performance ;-), and would no longer need the prj/ subdirectories.
It's not clear to me how they were planning to do this or on exactly
which modules (the "late" modules would have been the first to go into
this gbuild-only part, of which Calc is the last of the "big 6" that
aren't in gbuild yet), but I can't wait to start telling dmake and
build.pl goodbye!


unfortunately, I cannot provide you with much help. The only thing I can 
do is bulding the beast and report back problems.


But besides this I like your work. It's great to see a successful way 
towards a single and improved build system.


In the meantime we could paint a "Goodbye" sign for the special day. :-)

Again, thanks for your effort.

I had a similar problem downloading from sourceforge. The download was
not completed and comparing the MD5 to a partial download obviously
reported an error. The solution was to resume the download (from the
Firefox download dialog).

If that doesn't work, you can try downloading directly from Apache

indeed, Youtube would make the webpage look more complete.

Some suggestions:
- The "Facebook Group" link should be placed into the Facebook column.
- Also the Identi.ca link should be extended with an icon.
- The same for XING.
- There is another XING group for OpenOffice [1].
- I think you are planning to add Twitter also, right?

Thanks for your work.
