Dear all, I'll travel to Mexico from Taiwan on 7/1-10, and stay in Mexico City from 7/5-10.

I'm not sure on this since I do not know whether my submit talks are accepted. I would like to ask when the Open Document Editors devroom will announce the result of CFP? The announced time line (12/11) has passed, and I do not see the result. I *REALLY* need to book the flight soon. The cost of the flight gets 200USD more over the last week.

Re: Sourceforge
(I did not see any reason this discussion should go private, so I moved it to public.) As far as I read, the GIMP team had never opt-in distributing adwares/malwares. They did agree to share SF.net's ad profit, but not bundling adwares/malwares with their installers. And SF.net did hijacked GIMP for Windows without authors' consent. Goodbye, SourceForge. https://helb.github.io/goodbye-sourceforge/ Anatomy of SourceForge/GIMP controversy (from GIMP team) http://libregraphicsworld.org/blog/entry/anatomy-of-sourceforge-gimp-controversy What happened to Sourceforge? (from VLC developer) https://blog.l0cal.com/2015/06/02/what-happened-to-sourceforge/ I looked into which projects SF.net hijacked, and surprisingly found Apache HTTPD, Apache Derby, Apache Directory Studio, Firefox, MySQL, PostgreSQL, Nmap, The R-project. Apache HTTPD, Apache Derby, Apache Directory Studio, Nmap, R http://sourceforge.net/u/sf-editor3/profile/ GIMP, VLC http://sourceforge.net/u/sf-editor1/profile/ Firefox, MySQL, PostgreSQL http://sourceforge.net/u/sf-editor/profile/ So who's next? Apache OpenOffice? When will there be a new malware/adware-enabled Apache OpenOfffice installer? I suppose we should move from SF.net to a trustworthy mirror solution.

Same for a signed > macro? I understand Juergen's point on the removal of Mozilla library. But I'm not sure if we can take this lightly. Documents that were digitally signed can still be opened and edited, but their signatures cannot be verified, and they cannot be signed again once they are modified. Document macros that were digitally signed can still work if their signers were confirmed before. But these macros will not work for the first time on newer installations unless their users change their security method. Newer document macros cannot be signed anymore, and the users have to change their security method. I do not know if this is serious or not.

On Linux, OpenOffice document signature is done via the Mozilla firefox certificate store. On Windows, it is done via the Windows certificate store. I suppose the procedure is as follows: 1. Get/create a personal X.509 key/certificate with e-mail as the common name. Self-signed personal key/certificates should be OK. 2. Import it into the Mozilla firefox certificate store or Windows certificate store. 3. Close OpenOffice, including the quick run icon, if it is currently running. Restart it. 4. Save some document with something. 5. Sign the document from [File]=>[Digital Signature]. Before 4.0, the personal key/certificate in the Mozilla certificate store will be shown in [File]=>[Digital Signature]. On 4.1, this is missing. Digital signature is an important part to OpenOffice macro security and document integrity. If this is unintended, we will have to do something to fix it. > > Does anybody know more about document signing and how it is intended > to work? > > Juergen > > - > To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org > For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@openoffice.apache.org > -- Best regards, imacat ^_*' PGP Key http://www.imacat.idv.tw/me/pgpkey.asc <> News: http://www.wov.idv.tw/ Tavern IMACAT's http://www.imacat.idv.tw/ Woman in FOSS in Taiwan http://wofoss.blogspot.com/ OpenOffice http://www.openoffice.org/ EducOO/OOo4Kids Taiwan http://www.educoo.tw/ Greenfoot Taiwan http://greenfoot.westart.tw/ signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature

The "ps_helper" database: https://www.google.com.tw/#q=ps_helper+mysql The "test" database can be safely ignored. It's a standard MySQL database for testing purpose. When installing Perl DBD::mysql library, we need a database to test if DBD::mysql is working.

Forum Privilege Check
Dear all, As Drew requested to resign from the administrators in all forums, and TerryE's account will be removed from administrators, too, I'm planning to check the privileged accounts on all the 10 forums, and remove inactive administrators that haven't logged in for more than *1 year*. "1 year" here is defined as "from Oct 1st, 2012 to the last minute of the removal." "Administrator privileges" is defined as the "Administrators" and "Global Administrators" groups. I shall check and later present a list of the administrators to be removed. If anyone know of any of these inactive administrators, you may ask her/him to logged in if they still are willing to help the forum administration. Or, in case if their administrative privileges are removed, they can be added in again. Please discuss under this thread of there is other consideration. -- Best regards, imacat ^_*' PGP Key http://www.imacat.idv.tw/me/pgpkey.asc <> News: http://www.wov.idv.tw/ Tavern IMACAT's http://www.imacat.idv.tw/ Woman in FOSS in Taiwan http://wofoss.blogspot.com/ OpenOffice http://www.openoffice.org/ EducOO/OOo4Kids Taiwan http://www.educoo.tw/ Greenfoot Taiwan http://greenfoot.westart.tw/ signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature

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?

OK. I gained control to ooo-wiki2-vm now, with the help from Gavin (gmcdonald). The system is updated, and ooo-wiki2-vm is scheduled to reboot on 4/1 0:00am GMT+0, 12 hours from now.

I thought I was making mistakes, so I tried again. Only
user.services.openoffice.org and wiki.services.openoffice.org are
redirected to forums.openoffice.org and wiki.openoffice.org,
respectively. All other host names, if exist (and yes they exist), are
not redirected.
The DNS are pointed to the same IP. I mean the URLs (where httpd
deal with) are redirected or not redirected.
Technically, only when the value in the "Host:" header in the HTTP
request are either user.services.openoffice.org or
wiki.services.openoffice.org, the request will be redirected. All other
value in the "Host:" header in the HTTP request are kept intact.

Re: Mwiki possible name change.
Considering forums.openoffice.org altogether, I would vote for wiki.openoffice.org instead of wiki.openoffice.apache.org. 1. The existing community is built on this current host name. It would only confuse the community to change it. This is especially true that we have changed it just recently. 2.

I tried to install Linux inside my Android ASUS Transformer in last week I hoped to see OpenOffice my Transformer. The performance is poor. Android uses framebuffer instead of the X-server for display. Framebuffer is terrible in performance for desktop applications. From the news article, it seems that Canonical is planning to replace the Android OS on the devices with its Ubuntu Linux. This seems reasonable to solve the framebuffer performance problem, replacing it completely with an X-server. However, I have many Android applications and games on my Transformer.

That is cool! The KILLALL is bad, but if you do not log in as root onto your desktop, or run timidity as yourself, then it is fine.

Re: [PROPOSAL] New Apache OpenOffice 4 logo proposals...
Some honest thoughts: 1. These flat 3D plates feel a little weird. The lights of the plates has the focus effect, but the lights of the plates have not. 2. I cannot see the connection of these plates with our four components easily, as the colors of Writer, Calc, Impress and Base are not Blue, Orange, Green and Purple. And we have other components such as Math and Draw. 3. The directions of the lights are contradictory. The lights of the orb come from above, while the lights of the plates (and also the plate of the orb) come from right. But still, thanks you very much for this great effort.

If they work, do the same on the live site and update the symbolic link to point to the patched MediaWiki 1.16. This is how I did when upgrading my lab's WordPress from its tweaked older version. -- Best regards, imacat ^_*' PGP Key http://www.imacat.idv.tw/me/pgpkey.asc <> News: http://www.wov.idv.tw/ Tavern IMACAT's http://www.imacat.idv.tw/ Woman in FOSS in Taiwan http://wofoss.blogspot.com/ OpenOffice http://www.openoffice.org/ EducOO/OOo4Kids Taiwan http://www.educoo.tw/ Greenfoot Taiwan http://greenfoot.westart.tw/ signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature

If the only benefit is "our own family", I do not see this as a strong reason to risk for either data loss or hard work. Actually, the previous admin Terry may have made some tweak on the MediaWiki. The most concern for me is not data loss (we have backup), but if the wiki can still run as before. Also there are at least four questions that I see immediately. 1. You said there will be no data loss. Could we assume JSPWiki is a successor of MediaWiki? 2. Are the currently-enabled plugins have their corresponding plugins in JSPWiki? 3. Could there be a test machine that we can test first before change? 4.
