[dev] [OT] Re: [project leads] Re: [discuss] Re: OpenOffice.org Community Mapping Project
Hello Eike, I have put the OT flag, because my answer does no longer match the initial subject Le 2 nov. 08 à 12:22, Eike Rathke a écrit : See http://www.openoffice.org/servlets/ReadMsg? listName=dev&msgNo=15654 Sure, I read it, but my concern is about code core developers. What I'd like to see, is a map showing the people writing regular code for OOo, to have sort of photo, where such devs are not mixed with all the other, or maybe using another color, or something else but clear, showing easely how many are doing that, compared to the other. And yes, I think, be listed this way, is IMHO a minimum the project could do for regular volunteers or profesionall writing code for OpenOffice.org. This is even very easy to count them :) For me developers are the one who fix bugs, add new features .. The map is about OOo development, certainly there are not only core code developers involved in development, no? Yes, sure, the map... but I don't like how people play with the word "development". My conviction is, if you want to fix bugs and add new features, the role of core code developers is essential, and should be the first line fight of every day in the project. The rest is important of course, and you can add zillions of people helping, and contributing, but I think like some other people, that OpenOffice.org future can be compromised if we don't care. Even with millions of " meta " developers around. That's what I wanted to say. EOT for me. Regards, Eric Bachard -- qɔᴉɹə

However, if you are willing to contribute to OOo community by writing some application fragment, mingw is not a good platform. If you are planning to do so on MS Windows, Microsoft Visual C++ is the standard tool. You can also use free Express version and you can find building instruction on Wiki pages. I think the efforts by Volker on codeline 625 was abandoned and maybe the web page is obsolete. I am taking over the task on SRC680 and DEV300. Please note that mingw may not substitute MS Visual C++ even if the port is completed. I am doing the port for checking code portability in windows native modules and for fearing Microsoft may discontinue providing free compiler in the future. My effort on SRC680 is almost completed but I stopped it because we have switched to DEV300. My effort on DEV300 is also leaving a few build breakers. You can find my draft build instructions here. It is for SRC680. http://www.hkfreak.net/build_windows_mingw_tcsh.htm Some required SDKs are too old and maybe you cannot get them. I have not made instruction document for DEV300 as there is no documents for other platforms. You can find changed requirements for DEV300 in my following issue. http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=88772 If you dare try build on mingw, the documents may be of some help.

See http://www.openoffice.org/servlets/ReadMsg?listName=dev&msgNo=15654 | It seems there has been some misconception about who I wanted to address | with the http://www.frappr.com/ooodev OOoDev map of developers at | Frappr. Probably due to the wording I chose, "if you're involved in OOo | development". My intention was not to restrict entries to core code | developers, but to invite everyone who is involved in development, this | includes release engineers, porters, NL-leads, translators, QA personel, | documentation writers, and last but not least dictionary maintainers ;-) Once upon a time a short sentence describing that was also displayed on the Frappr page, but they changed UI and that short description was dropped. Their UI got worse over the years anyway, the more they tried to pimp up that service. > For me developers are the one who fix bugs, add new features ..

(Unfortunately most of the > recent entries are spam) Cleaned that up a bit and hopefully didn't remove anyone who indeed was an OOo contributor. You sometimes can't tell if there's an entry with a nick only that is not related to OOo, and nothing else. Eike -- PGP/OpenPGP/GnuPG encrypted mail preferred in all private communication.
