[tdf-discuss] Re: Adabas database usage
Le 12/06/11 03:04, Uwe Altmann a écrit : Hi Uwe, Adabas was bundeled only with StarOffice (never with OOo) - it was one of the Add-Ons Star Office had (besides more Gallery entries, templates and better spell checking then OOo) in former times. In former times refers to OOo 1.* when OOo has no official (=Sun/Star Office) Version for Macs; so Adabas connection/driver never had a need for Mac support by Sun. That would explain why I had it for several years, since I decided to pay for StarOffice through most of its commercial versions, even after OOo had been launched. At the time I wasn't on the Mac platform though. Meanwhile Adabas is a legacy product. I wonder if anyone uses it in a productive environment. Surely not on a Mac. As has been said - whoever need this can stick on an older OOo Version. I think François has already proposed a patch in master on the developer list for the config scripts to no longer build the Adabas driver component module.

[tdf-discuss] Share Libraries with Apache OpenOffice
Hi folks, I want to share an idea with you. I know that there will be no union of LO and OO, but I think it is an advantage for both projects to have some general Libraries developed together. As a sample I think of GTK, which in its beginning was only a Toolkit developed for GIMP, but nowadays is used by Gnome, Xfce and many others. So I think it would be good if some parts of LO/OOo were developed together with Apache where no different goals exist. I understand that this won't work for the core modules like Writer, Impress, Calc, etc. But what about the Window toollkit and the import/export filters? Whether this development can happen under the hood of Apache or TDF has to be discussed then, but what do you think about the general idea?
