Re: [libreoffice-marketing] Re: CeBIT status quo
Hi :) Attracting more devs would be great. Especially if we can get people that are 1. keen to re-write Accessibility from scratch in a way that avoids Java. IBM's donation to AOO is heavily dependant on java apparently and java ... (errr i'm stuck trying to think of a word that is not rude but that adequate). 2. keen to work on Base, either by pruning it right back to the core of it that does work well or just working on a few bugs As i see it even if those are not areas they are keen on LibreOffice would gain from attracting devs. Another point is that our existing devs might be more keen if they are able to go to such events and gain recognition for their work or get to socialise with other people that might have ideas that lead to successes or stir up interest in related issues.

IBM Donation to AOO (was Re: [libreoffice-marketing] Re: CeBIT status quo)
On 1/3/13 3:36 PM, Tom Davies wrote: IBM's donation to AOO is heavily dependant on java apparently and java ... (errr i'm stuck trying to think of a word that is not rude but that adequate). IBM donation to AOO is pure marketing fluff, as after 18 months the header of the files is still IBM proprietary, which means that the source code cannot be used by anyone but IBM. If you want to have a confirmation, you can look at a discussion on the AOO mailing list on November 26, where Denis Hamilton raised the issue. IBM faked the donation of the Symphony code to AOO because they wanted to replace OOo with Symphony, as it is rather clear from the answer of Mr Robert Weir to the issue raised by Denis Hamilton. As the community did not accept IBM plans, IBM did not donate anything but did not make it clear in public (they should have bragged about it as much as they bragged about the fake donation). This means that the accessibility code and the sidebar cannot be used even by AOO until the source code headers are not changed to reflect the donation. Please remember that Italian have invented fake donations back in the year 315, when the fake Constantin donation allowed the birth of the Vatican State and the power of the Popes (which are both based on a false document). So, nothing new under the sun... (and this probably explains why I am so skeptical about IBM software group: Italians smell fakes, as they have invented them almost 1700 years ago). -- Italo Vignoli - italo.vign...@gmail.com mob +39.348.5653829 - VoIP 5316...@messagenet.it skype italovignoli - gtalk italo.vign...@gmail.com -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to marketing+h...@global.libreoffice.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.libreoffice.org/global/marketing/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted

I will also make sure to mention them again. I have time to recreate the Doodle, would you like me to go ahead? There are only 5 people who have signed up and they can easily re-book their times. BTW ... the Doodle seems to be open for edit by anyone ... for example I can edit anyone's date entries. We are also trying to grow the marketing team and having the time-zone box, to me, seems imperative. We should make it as easy for people to join. Not having the time-zone box leads people into believing the times picked are being updated to everyone's own time-zone. We need more involvement from people in N.S. Americas, Asia etc. As for IRC I am quite hesitant. Tge whole point of a call is to talk, and that's not the case with IRC. We have several phone numbers one can dial from pretty much every corner of the earth and we also have Skype access. IRC, in this case, is a support tool. If we need to reference a weblink to people to look at, or a file, etc. then IRC is a great tool to use. We have also used IRC in times where a caller's phone line suddenly died and we updated him through IRC ... I can type quickly enough to mirror talk if there were ever any need for it.
