I notice that the stats havent been update to 2015. We are already on February and 2015 don't show up in the scale.I would expect at least a 5% of the graph to belong to 2015.

Both of them started programming before I was born, and it is impressing to see their energy and dedication to the project.

Chair is the connection to the board all other duties/responsibilities are all PMC every project has exactly 1 chair, therefore it makes real good sense to inite Dennis. You are right in ASF we alwayes try to make consensus, but I am not sure what can bevdone in this case. If there is a general feeling that this vote needs somehow to be redone, I am not the one standing in the way. Furthermore I am NOT elected by the vite, but Andrea sends a recommmendation to the board based on the vote, then the board decide if they want to accept the recommendation. rgds jan i > > /Peter > > >> Votes from the OpenOffice PMC http://people.apache.org/ >> committers-by-project.html#openoffice-pmc : >> >> 10 jani: >> >>alg arist hdu >>jsc khiranomarcus >>mechtildemikeadvo orw >>pescetti >> >> 8 orcmid: >> >>arielch galoppini kschenk >>louispj regina >>robweir wave >> >> 9 Abstaining: >> >> af atjensendpharbison >> fanyuzhenimacat ingotian >> jim mayongl rgb-es >> >> Plus the following votes from other community members: >> 5 jani (Michal Hrin, Simon Phipps, Olaf Felka, Alexandro Colorado, Guy >> Waterval) >> 3 orcmid (Keith N.

Thoughts about new chair, and PMC changes
Hi. First of all thanks to all those who voted for me as new chair and PMC member. A special thank to Dennis for running as candidate, in my opinion Dennis is at least as, if not more, qualified than I am and I hope that will be acknowledged very fast. Looking at the votes makes me a bit concerned. Had one candidate got e.g. 90% of the votes, it would have been a show of a united community. The current distribution of votes can have multiple causes: 1) Votes were cast due to the goal/work target of each candidate 2) Votes go to one candidate as a indirect -1 to the other candidate 3) Both candidates are equally good, so the project will benefit from both. I hope the cause is number 3. Because both 1 and 2 signal we have something to correct or reunite. The work as chair is simple and well defined, but the PMC work is a lot more open for definitions, therefore I ask those who feel like it, and especially those who voted for Dennis...please give me a mail if there is something I should do better or not do (as PMC). I cannot give promises, but to me it is important that we have a united community. We have challenging work ahead of us, which we must be able to concentrate on..so let us all start pulling and hopefully in the same direction. I for one, will start discussions about what we need to change to seriously attract people, and give our code a facelift...I do have some indications from elsewhere that are equally exciting and innovative, more about this later. jan I.

Accessing docs saved on Poer PC mac
Dear Open Office, I have a number of Office files saved on a hard drive from my G5 Mac (now deceased) and I cannot open them on my new Mac Lap top (OSX 10.8.5.) I would like to know if there is any software that I can get to access these files or any way I can open them. I would be obliged to you for any useful suggestions.

Re: Accessing docs saved on Poer PC mac
Have you tried to manually open them from OpenOffice? 1. Open Openoffice Writer. 2. Go to File -> Open 3. Select the filetype (doc, docx). 4. Go to the directory with your files, and open them.

The other question is related, but as I look on SF API seems this is for a single file download, and I wonder how to concurrently do all of the files from the release. However, I tried this with the detail-by-day.py script which required the SF URL, however if this script you showed me dont need any arguments (URL or date limits) I guess it would be fine. I tested the get-aoo-stats.py but also ask me for a list of URLs (I assume these are for each file from the release). If you can provide a sample dump for the current release, it would be good enough for me. get-aoo-stats.py syntax: python get-aoo-stats.py [] where is a list of files URL's to gather stats on, and is a date of interest, in -MM-DD format.

RE: [DISCUSS] Re: [VOTE] New Apache OpenOffice PMC Chair
For the record, I am in complete accord with the outcome and how Andrea is moving his recommendation for new Chair forward to the ASF Board. I shall continue as a contributor. I look forward to our moving forward on Andrea's Priority #2 proposal. I have no interpretation to offer concerning details of the [VOTE] and the quantitative outcome. My only observations is that the cast votes are what they were (and what votes not cast were not) and the outcome is what it is. Elections are like that, to the bemusement of all [;<). -Original Message- From: Andrea Pescetti [mailto:pesce...@apache.org] Sent: Sunday, February 8, 2015 02:24 To: dev@openoffice.apache.org Subject: Re: [DISCUSS] Re: [VOTE] New Apache OpenOffice PMC Chair Peter Junge wrote: > What is the conclusion of this vote?

You'll also need to "all.lst" data file from the same directory. It is a list of all the program file downloads on SF for AOO, for all releases. You run like: python detail-by-day.py all.lst start-date end-date for example: python detail-by-day.py all.lst 2015-01-01 2015-02-01 >out.csv You can then load the CSV file into Calc and do calculations from there.
