Re: Remembering Ian Lynch in 4.1.2 announcement
+1 my personal opinion is that we should keep the release announcement focused on the product. People behind and/or involved the project can be addressed in a separate blog where we can also remember project members who passed away. People leave the project or became less active (including me) and new people started to become more active and do more and more. I suggest to focus on the new fresh blood that can make the difference in the future.

Re: Drop support for OSX 10.4 and 10.5 for AOO 4.1
Am 08.08.2013 10:08, schrieb Herbert Duerr: This is very true also in other areas. I suggest we drop support for OSX 10.4 and 10.5 for Apache OpenOffice 4.1. There are some good points for the proposal: - the latest update of OSX 10.4 was in 2007 and Apple dropped support for it in May 2011 - the latest update of OSX 10.5 was in 2009 and Apple dropped support for it in July 2012 - Mozilla stopped releasing for them after FireFox 16 - Google stopped releasing for them after Chrome 22 - Microsoft stopped releasing for them after MSO 2011 - Adobe stopped releasing for them in 2012 - Oracle only provides Java for OSX 10.6 and up - Adium stopped releasing for them after Adium 1.4.5 - etc. It sounds reasonable to drop these OSXs for AOO 4.1 and I would second the proposal. But it's not a good style to drop an OS within a minor update. What are the big changes in AOO 4.1 compared to 4.0 that we can't support these OSXs any longer? We should have done that for AOO 4.0.

If you do this, the users will be happier because they anticipate happiness in the *near* future, not a year from now. If we get quality we don't need quantity. We don't have to bother the user with monthly installations. The majority of feedback I remember is: 'We don't want all these new features but we want it stable.'

Re: Do language packs have update notifications?

Are we able to notify 3.3.0 users of the Tamil language pack about the update? Is that something the update notification system can handle? Or does it only handle updates to the base install? -Rob AFAIR they don't have an update functionality.

Re: [CODE][PROPOSAL]: AOO 4.0 getting rid of the 3 layer office, part 1
Sorry for top posting but: +1 !!! Groetjes, Olaf Am 22.03.2013 17:15, schrieb Jürgen Schmidt: Hi, the so called 3layer office is not really useful anymore (it was never) and makes more problems than it helps. I thought that AOO 4.0 would be the best time to start at least with the necessary rework. The main idea is to use a new simplified directory layout and tweak the necessary config file (*rc, *.ini), rpath or similar linker flags where necessary etc. Eliminate the URE completely because we don't really want support it as a standalone product. I did some initial work so far and I am now able to build an office for Windows, MacOS and Linux with a new simplified directory layout. Windows and MacOS have already one main directory whereas on Linux we have openoffice (basis layer + URE) and openoffice4 (brand layer). I removed all this base-link, ure-link, URE, urelib stuff and reorganized the directories. Example layout on Linux: openoffice4 openoffice4/help openoffice4/presets openoffice4/program - contains basis-link/program + URE/bin + URE/lib openoffice4/program/misc - former URE/share/misc - will be removed openoffice4/README openoffice4/README.html openoffice4/readmes openoffice4/share In general the layout becomes more equal on all platforms. The good news is that the office work on all 3 platforms, I am able to select Java, extensions seems to work as well. Python is not yet tested, language packs are not yet tested and built but in general I am thinking it will be no problem. Advantage of this move would be a simplified structure, long term a simplified configuration when the *rc/*.ini files are consolidated. Easier deployment on Linux, no conflicts with an URE from LO or the distro at all. My idea is to continue this basic work, do further cleanup in the office as well as the build system, do further testing including the SDK... Still some work to do but from my point of view a useful move forward to get rid of this complex and unnecessary 3layer stuff. What do you think? On demand I can provide test builds if there are people interested to help with testing.
