I've been working with Fred Toussi, a very helpful hsqldb developer, on many CSV handling improvements to hsqldb, in hopes of eventually using hsqldb in place of our dodgy CSV driver in Base (it has far better SQL support, joins, subqueries, many scalar functions, etc.). We both wrote patches, but work remains on a few last issues. This new driver also still has to be developed.
This is great news!
Also I've begun looking at some academic research into automated conversion of C++ source code into Java
This still seems very ambitious, but I admire it.
What have the rest of you been up to?
I'm neglecting this mailing list too much lately. I hope I'll have the time to write more often.
I've done https://bz.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=126864 last weekend, but I haven't found the time for proper testing yet.
I've also experimented with a repackaging of our Linux builds that allows to save space on mirrors (not important in itself, but important for the upload process) while still providing the same files and the same user experience.
And I've been fighting a bit with Apache Infra to get some attention to our builds, but with no real success so far. I still believe that Infra is not deliberately neglecting anyone, and that they simply have a lot of tasks at hand at the moment, but by missing a presence at ApacheCon last week we missed an important occasion for Infra to get something done for OpenOffice during their traditional ApacheCon sprint.
