[tdf-discuss] LibreOffice Portable

2012-09-26 Thread Pedro
Hi all

Is TDF in some way related to LibreOffice Portable?

Shouldn't there be an equivalent Portable version for each stable release?

Regards,
Pedro

[tdf-discuss] Master Thesis about STAROffice, OpenOffice and LibreOffice

2012-09-26 Thread vdvogt


Hi all,
I'm a former student of the Free Technology Academy  
(www.ftacademy.org). There I began my studies of Free Software.
When the FTA stopped their regular course programme end of 2011 I  
changed to the Universitat Oberta de Catalunya (www.uoc.edu) to finish  
my studies.
This semester I will begin my Master Thesis. This will be a Multi Case  
Study about the projects STAROffice, OpenOffice and LibreOffice.
For this work I need all your help and assistance, because without  
your informations I can't do this work.
To introduce me and my work I will give a short presentation at LOConf  
at Berlin on


Friday 2012 October 19 at 12:30h in Room 2.

Please all be present.

See you there...
with kind regards
Veit-Dieter Vogt

Only insofar that Portable versions are hosten on our mirror
infrastructure and are advertized/available on our download pages.

They are not produced by TDF itself.

Portable releases always come a little after the original release, but
if there is one, it is added...

see e.g. 
http://www.libreoffice.org/download/?type=win-x86lang=en-USversion=3.6.1
http://download.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/portable/3.6.1/
(see that there actually is a left-over build available, not sure
whether it is intentional to host both 3.6.1 and 3.6.1.1)

ciao
Christian

Thanks. That is what I thought.

My question is related to a problem I run into today while opening an odt
created in 3.5.x and that won't open in 3.6.2.1
There is no Portable version of 3.5.6 only of 3.5.5  (released in July 12th)
However version 3.6.1 is already available (released in Sept 11th)

This leads me to think that the guys creating the Portable version are
possibly going to ignore version 3.5.7 (which is currently in rc1) in the
same way that they never released version 3.4.6

Of course any user can update the Portable install manually but it is not a
simple trivial task.

I think that for testing and because of regressions it would be good that
the Portable version would match all stable versions of each branch. Better
yet, it would be good if the last version of each branch was kept available
at the LO download site.

Just a suggestion for TDF to consider.

Regards,
Pedro

[tdf-discuss] LibreOffice Forums Categories Proposal

2012-09-26 Thread Marc Paré
The LibreOffice Forums co-cordinators[1] have been hard at work behind 
the scenes readying a forums solution for the LibreOffice project. We 
have gotten to the point where we need to decide on the 
categories/forums, and, have drawn up a proposal for you to examine and 
to discuss. Please note that the categories and forums shown on the 
page[2], at this point, are only suggestions and may be modified (some 
may be removed or added) after we have discussed this as a group.


As LibreOffice Forums is a communications tool that affects all areas of 
the project, we would like to have the main discussion and decisions of 
the categories/forums done on the discussion list. If this proposal 
includes a list where you actively participate, please have a discussion 
there and report back to the discussion list of the outcome of your 
discussions. You may find more details on the Forum Planning wiki page[1].


The plan for the LibreOffice Forums is that the global EN forums will 
make its appearance first (date is still undetermined), and, the native 
language forums will follow soon after. We will be making arrangements 
for moderators following the agreement on the proposal.


The LibreOffice Forums co-cordinators: Jonathan Aquilina, Lucian Oprea, 
Joel Madero, Marc Paré, Jean Spiteri
