[tdf-discuss] Re: Hackfest - September 9th, Ohio Linux Fest

2011-06-21 Thread John LeMoyne Castle
Seems to me this thread used to be longer in Nabble 8-0  
I am still interested Drew and I had this thought: 
Even if a HackFest can't be drawn together it would be very useful to the
attendees and LibreOffice to have at least a table where people could report
issues (as new or as confirmation of existing issues), get coaching on
appropriate upgrades, and maybe do a little testing around their known
issues, hard to reproduce issues or just visit areas that are important to
them as users. 
Seems like an excellent chance for solid feedback from committed and
skillful users.

Re: Availability of source code (Was: Re: OFF TOPIC about GPL enforcement (Was: Re: [tdf-discuss] Re: [Libreoffice] Proposal to join Apache OpenOffice))

2011-06-20 Thread John LeMoyne Castle
Dennis, Tanstaafl, 

I take your point.  Users that have 3.3.2 installed can only get the code
for 3.3.3 from the website.  As discussed above, I think this meets the
spirit of the license but not the specific letter. Simon's idea about
downloading the repo at the 3.3.2 marker is a great one, but there is no
path to that on either website or wiki.

[tdf-discuss] Re: Simple solution to avoid #VALUE required

2011-06-08 Thread John LeMoyne Castle
I put another workaround example on the bug --
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=37860
Can reuse same condition that determines whether source term is Blank or
Numeric. 

I fully appreciate attempts to improve VBA interop as this is the way LO can
gain placement on the myriad desktops stalling at XP waiting for a better
solution than tithing to M$0.  The Basic module has VBA_Interop (sp?)
flag(s?) but in some places they make the Basic core logic more complex and
hard to understand/maintain.  I am all for a standard solution that treats
empty strings, blanks strings and all other nothings as zeros in math
context, but see the need for the VBA style results as well, however bizarre
they are. 

Dang needy M$ - nothing is not acceptable - give me VALUE NOW!!!  :-0
