Reporting a problem with the OpenOffice website

2014-05-01 Thread Tobias Reinmann
Hello

On http://www.openoffice.org/de/downloads/ there is a problem with the
download:

If one chooses 4.1.0 Beta, 4.1.0 (not Beta) is downloaded, and vice-versa.

Kind regards

Thanks for the update. I gave it a try and it seems to work correctly

My goal is to release a new extension in the beginning of June.


That would be perfect, so in this first month of availability of 
OpenOffice 4.1 users are not immediately prompted with the extension 
update (which might be confusing to some).

The best way is to use an alias (Insert - Other Macros). I tried but it

our cwiki has problems. I left the broken alias in the page, in case
someone figures out how to do it properly (it's invisible unless one is
editing the page anyway).


Me too. Maybe the macro is not correctly configured.

- It's not listed in the sub-categories. Only when listing "All" or
searching for it.
- When entering the term "@self" for telling to use the current webpage
as root webpage, I get a list of files even not located in the AOO project.

I'll try to ask tomorrow my colleague @ work.


The "Alias" is a plugin that is not installed in the company's 
Confluence instance where I work. So, no fast help from here. :-(

We have no

A lot of nice stuff here.

Indeed, I don't see it in the announcements of the English forum, even though 
it was announced in other forums. But I believe that the main reason for a low 
percentage of people who had heard that the Beta was available through the 
forum is simply that your survey was not announced on the forum.

My bad.
I've had some hectic moments in March and April, couldn't really keep an eye on 
the ML.

I'll try to think about it in the future.

I did publish a pointer to the Beta in some replies on the Forum, but I was 
cautious, as too many inexperienced Users trying the Beta could have caused bad 
experience to those Users and hence increased workload on the Forum. Like 
Hagar, I've been having a bad few months, though I hope for different reasons - 
averaging 5 hours broken sleep every night because of family illness.

Good point. I disabled the 4.1.0-Beta and 4.1.0-dev versions, disabled

Another small fix to do: "Latest confirmation on" should be updated 
accordingly, and probably only keep 4.1.0 and 4.2.0-dev.



Do we still need the "OOo 3.4.0 Beta"? I would disable this as-well as
IMHO it is no linger needed like 4.1.0 Beta.


That beta was special. It was the last release by Oracle and it is quite 
different from 3.4.0 final, that was the first Apache release. It's good 
to keep it to know whether a bug originated at Apache, where we can 
investigate it more easily, or before Apache.

We don't release any other versions than what is available on the

Hello A L --

There is no registration to get started in development here. We like new
volunteers to use  our Orientation Modules --

http://openoffice.apache.org/orientation/index.html

These will give you an overview of how the project works with some guidance
for how to get involved in development.

Thank you for your interest in Apache OpenOffice development!

Please feel free to get back to this list with any questions you may have.

Broken Bugzilla link in Release Notes

2014-05-01 Thread Andrea Pescetti

Our 4.1 release notes

https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OOOUSERS/AOO+4.1+Release+Notes

contain a link to Bugzilla for a list of fixed bugs

https://issues.apache.org/ooo/buglist.cgi?cmdtype=dorem&remaction=run&namedcmd=AOO_410_Resolved

but the list does not work for me at the moment. If I am not logged in, 
it prompts for a login, but if I open the link while logged in I get an 
error: "The search named AOO_410_Resolved does not exist."


Can it be fixed?

Thanks,
  Andrea.

Knowtilus Apps' iOS Textilus App

2014-05-01 Thread Louis Suárez-Potts
I came across Textilus for iOS. It claims that it can

"Create and edit documents for Microsoft Word, Open Office, Scrivener, Nisus 
Writer, etc." (http://www.textilusapp.com/ See "Features.")

Does anyone have any experience with it? There's a free version, which I'm 
about to try. "Free" means I don't pay for it; it is not open source, afaik. 
The pricier version is about 6USD.

I would be a little surprised if this is really all that it suggests it is and 
also possessed of a usable UI. But, one never knows.

Try this link instead --

https://issues.apache.org/ooo/buglist.cgi?cmdtype=dorem&remaction=run&namedcmd=AOO_410_Resolved&sharer_id=249136

if it works, we can change it. Maybe we need the "sharer_id"

Andrea;

I changed that link to match the one used in the General Comments
section. The one you had trouble with was saved search I had shared with
registered users. If for no other reason than consistency the two links
should point to the same information.
