A defined process !? By who? I thought we (Sun and non-Sun) agreed
when we had that big spec process discussion back in 2006[1] that the
format of the specification no longer matters, but the content does.
Someone even suggested that we write in plain text or just in the issue
page. Did I miss any other "important" discussion that took place since
then?
I remember it otherwise and that was that the agreement was to use that
suggested template for Wiki Specifications, but I may be wrong.
Anyhow you certainly don´t want to break that semi-automatic process to
generate Release Notes and volunteer to offer to parse a few hundred
specifications in a few hundred different plain text based formats by
sighting them manually for each new official user Release and each new
Developer Milestone instead. Or do you want to offer to do this kind of
work for OpenOffice.org? Or do you think we should just drop the most
important part of the Relases Motes at all which is to tell people which
new things they can expect from a Release and which main bugs have been
fixed, I certainly think you don't!
You can use:
http://so-web.germany.sun.com/EIS2/servlet/guide.CheckSpecification
Sorry, "server not found" error here. :-(
Also. if you give an address please make sure it works...
Sorry, my mistake, I accidently posted an Sun internal URL to the
internal incarnation of EIS instead of the right one to the
OpenOffice.org incarnation of EIS, the correct URL is:
http://eis.services.openoffice.org/EIS2/servlet/guide.CheckSpecification
If you are already logged into EIS you can use the Menü-Entry
"Misc/Check Specification" there, the URL above is just a shortcut to
the feature.
