Re: [libreoffice-website] New LibreOffice-Extensions-Template - Development Status
Hi Andreas, Andreas Mantke wrote on 29-12-14 18:42: I'm using the feedback Cor gave some month ago. Yes, I remember that, but it was a year ago :) BY then I was not able to quickly find a clear link between the ideas and the steps in development. What I missed mainly, was a clear mock up to discuss. My input was some step in that direction, but not good enough. Alas due to severe time constraints I have, I stopped looking at it. And since then my agenda has not improved - surprise :) It would be great if this extensions site could get a boost. It's important work that many users visit and there are so much suggestions to make those visits even more a pleasure. You intended to post a concept within the next days - a year back.. But of course you're busy too with normal day life job and tasks. So I would consider to accept that it's good to consider to get support from people that know the platform, that take a lot (not all, and of course not all the fun ;) ) from your shoulders ;) IIRC there was some willingness in the board to make that possible.

It would also be great if installed extensions would have a notice feature for updates (new versions). But that's also a task for core LibreOffice development.

[libreoffice-website] New LibreOffice-Extensions-Template - Development Status
Hello, I worked the last weeks a bit on a Plone addon for the new LibreOffice extension and template site. The addon uses new Plone content types: Dexterity. You could follow the current status of the new site at http://vm141.documentfoundation.org:9095/LibOExtText/en/extensions I developed already the content types for the new site. There are only three of them: center, project, release. Every content type get his own view. That are the templates to show the content types (they are developed in a special markup language: TAL). I worked only on the structure of the views and added only a very rudimentary layout. The search form is not working yet. That's on my todo. I'm happy to get some feedback on the current structure of the site. If you want an account on the site please fill in the form 'Hosting your Project' linked at the bottom of the site.

The user of the site will get a list of projects by rating and another one with the newest projects. Another suggestion? - a beautiful theme/CSS. As already described I added only a rudimentary design (css) (no real theme yet). I want to finish the content first and work on the theme afterwards. I hope to get some support from css-artists for that work ;-) The theme should be developed by using Diazo framework. That would make it easy for webdesigner, because they don't need to know anything about the Plone CMS (they could concentrate on CSS only) ;-) Right now I am afraid -but perhaps it's too early- that I see none of that. That's true for the theme topic ;-) Good luck and thank you for your efforts! Thanks. And I'm looking for some feedback.
