Dennis suggested "design notes". I normally call it either feature documentation, feature description, feature page, or simply just a wiki page for feature XYZ. Ok, among those I'd prefere "design notes". To me, the word "specification" implies much more than just a collection of information; it implies formality and final, approved decision that cannot be changed without paperwork, votes, or whatever is the formal way of proposing changes. Oh - we are on the same side here :) I never ever again want to see a bugreport rejected, just because an obvious bug works "as defined in the spec and we cannot change the spec". I want those design notes for mainly two reasons: - before / during / right after implementation we know that a small team did some elaboration how a certain feature should be implemented and found consensus on how to implement. The implementation should be based on this consensus and not be changed by a single party. (But please: no formalism, no big administration .. if there is a team that's all you need .. if there is no team, then don't stop working) - some time after implementation the notes could be used as input for further implementation /changes, documentation, testing ... So it's a (hopefully helpfull) input for future tasks - nothing that schould hinder future work. But I think Michael's explanation is pretty much in line with how I perceive this term, and why I think it's a mis-used term for this purpose. So please let's not stick to the term :) I agree to many of Michael's points as well as to Bjoern's. E.g. no bugfix (that improves the situation and does not just move from one awkward situation to another) should be delayed, just for the "sake of having a spec". No one should be put in charge of doing some work without being asked beforehand etc. I'd like to have all this as help for developers. E.g. I don't want to write the help texts (there are lot's of people who have much better skill in technical writing) - I don't want to do an in-deep analysis of competitor's software features - I don't like to elaborate migration szenarios. But I want people to make people that many of such things need to be done - and my experience from the last few weeks is, that hardly anybody outside the dev-list is aware of this :( regards, André ___ LibreOffice mailing list LibreOffice@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice

Hi Kohei, Am 09.07.2011 19:39, schrieb Kohei Yoshida: Regarding this bug https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=39068 Rainer started the specification process for this. I'd rather say he started to collect information in a structured way to help all the people involved in a new feature implementation. And to make more people aware that their help is needed. I thought one thing we decided to do was not to re-introduce this over-engineered, time-wasting specification process. Is this a new development in the LibreOffice space? It's not about a mandatory over-engineered process. I started something similar for the gridline display. I (and others) found this quit helpfull - but I would not do it again in that detail for quite simple patches. It was more to see, what might work and what not. Anyway - what I really dislike from your further communication (your answer to Christoph) is the way you speak about "us" developers and "you" UX, QA and documentation guys. It's after all "we" who create and develop LibreOffice. All that said: if you can suggest some other word for "spec" I'd be quite happy. For me it is more or less a notes collection for an implementation - and not the thing that was used at OOo. What Rainer and me currently do with those spects is really only a first step and maybe a step to far. Again - we are currently trying to see what works and what not.

Re: [Libreoffice] [GSOC] Report #5. Wizards
Hi Peter, sorry for randomly jumping in with just some side-notes ... Am 06.07.2011 22:10, schrieb Peter Jentsch: I'm unsure about where to put the xliff files, because I'm completely ignorant of the translation workflow and the different places where translatable items are put in order to get easily picked up by translators. If we want to go that way, Andras Timar might have an idea about where to store this stuff. Plus, I found xliff allows for a lot of things, and the Xslt script will make a few assumptions on how (simple) the xliff file is structured, so the process might break easily if the translation tools want to do nasty things with the xliff file (that a fully working xliff toolchain would be required to understand). But maybe that's not happening anyway, and in practice it's less complex than it looks on first sight. Afaik there is hardly any "fully working FOSS-based xliff toolchain" that includes translation editors and complext xliff files. Translate toolkit has a quite good support for XLIFF <-> po conversion (as long as you do not use advanced xliff features). If we want to go that way, I could test the conversion and how this works for a translator. regards, André ___ LibreOffice mailing list LibreOffice@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice

This had been discussed at some point (actually I did prefer "on top" as you see in the implementation). But comments showed that "on top" or "in foreground" is not a much better description. The grid is not really on top, as it is still behind drawing elements, notes ...

This would have to be done at another place - not in the style but for the paragraph, when the footnote gets inserted (check number width, calculate widht, apply attributes per Paragraph). This would be higher efford and the outcome would not be desirable, as thenthe user would have inconistent display of footnotes. This indentation can be modified manually afterwards, right? yes. That's the workaround, already mentioned in the bug report. How many footnotes to "typical" documents have (yeah, I know zero...).

So add me to the list of folks on the "testscripts" team, please. Well - we are just starting, so we need to establish the team first. But meanwhile you can start working. What I'd like to see is some way to coordinate work surrounding the test scripts: * A wiki page with best practices, local custom, etc. I just created a very simple page at the wiki to give people a start. http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Qa/testing/Using_Testtool Could you please go through the page, try if it works and enhance it? In genereal I would suggest to: * learn how to run one manual test and analyze the results * learn how to run a set of tests and analyze the results * define a small set of testscripts that need to be stabel * start improving those scripts (we will face many errors, just because LibO has additional or changed functionality compared to OOo) * A status board (what is failing where, and what test scripts are born bad and need some discipline) * Pretty graphs and charts. Freenode IRC bot for queries? * Some statistics. (Maybe use R?) Yes, but this needs more people who have knowledge about the testtool and the time to set all this up. Everyone is welcome to work on this. To run scripts in batch and analyze the results, we have some scripts in testautomation/tools. The scripts are quite simple. * A list of info about the team of folks on the "test scripts" team (is this QA?), who is active and who is inactive. I think, we can use the wiki for this. * A section of bugzilla (or whatever bug tracker we're using) for [testscript]-ers. Hmm .. yes. But maybe not for the start. best regards, André ___ LibreOffice mailing list LibreOffice@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice
