[tdf-discuss] Getting Action
Hi, all. A few months ago, we had some good discussion about improvements to Writer's notes feature, in a thread titled Enhancement Request: Comment Ranges As a result, Chrisoph added a feature request-- https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=38244 --and a place to vote for it-- http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Vote_for_Enhancement#Bug_38244_-_Enable_attaching_comments_to_document_text_ranges_in_Writer I'd appreciate if anyone who hasn't already done so would go vote for it, but the real reason I'm writing today is to ask for other ideas about how to encourage implementation of these enhancements. Would a bug bounty work well for this type of feature? I'm nervous about doing that, because I wouldn't want to shell out money for features that don't actually work or don't end up making into the real release. I'm going to have to do more editing in the future, and Microsoft Word 2011 for the Mac is just a disaster with regard to comments, so I'm dying to have a version of LO that could replace it. -- Charles LEGALESE: PRIVILEGED AND CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION: The information contained in this electronic transmission, and any documents attached hereto, may contain confidential information that is legally privileged and confidential.

Hi Charles, Thanks for working on your ideas! Charles Jenkins wrote (16-04-12 16:15) Would a bug bounty work well for this type of feature? I'm nervous about doing that, because I wouldn't want to shell out money for features that don't actually work or don't end up making into the real release. It's basically very simple: if it can be done, and a bounty (or just other actions/relations) will make a developer to work on the code, the feature will make it to LibreOffice. Core devs are very supportive to help new developers people start :-) HTH regards, -- - Cor - http://nl.libreoffice.org -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to discuss+h...@documentfoundation.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.documentfoundation.org/www/discuss/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted

IMO the main feature set that could stand improvement would be those things that facilitate collaborative editing. arrrgggh. OK i got myself registered on the wiki after some rigamarole. Went into Edit pane on that bug added my comment in the same format as all the other ones that are there: # myCommentHere ... this is how I always have edited any wiki page. Preview shows my comment but the page does not. I give up. But I do love the idea :-) -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to discuss+h...@documentfoundation.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.documentfoundation.org/www/discuss/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
Re: [tdf-discuss] Getting Action
REALLY NEVER MIND THIS TIME. I realize i put my comment under the disagree subheading. Easy to do for mere mortals who are not developers ... I scrolled to the bottom and added my comment, which then put it under some strange phrase that was surrounded by things like ' ' ' and was hard to read so my eye skipped over that line. Regular people like me shouldn't be allowed into wikis, LOL! The code just makes me cross-eyed. I'm glad some sort of voting mechanism has been set up, but i look forward to someday seeing feature-voting mechanism that just lets those allergic to plain-text coding click checkboxes and buttons. Glad I didn't do worse damage, apologies to all for the noise. kazar -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to discuss+h...@documentfoundation.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.documentfoundation.org/www/discuss/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
