OpenOffice.org Specifications
Welcome to the web based collaboration area of the OpenOffice.org Specification Project.
Specifications are an essential part of the OpenOffice.org development process. They serve as working base for Development, User Experience, Quality Assurance and Documentation.
Specification Template
We think that writing a specification should be as painles as possible that's why we have created a specification template. A template simplifies the process of writing specifications, lowers the number of defects within specifications and reduces the time to review specifications.
- Please use the official OpenOffice.org Specification Template
Note: the template requires OpenOffice.org 2.02 or later, make also sure that your OpenOffice.org proxy settings are configured correctly. They can be found under Tools/Options/Internet/Proxy.
- Currently UI specifications are stored on UI Specifications for OpenOffice.org 2.0.x
- Older specifications can be found on UI Specifications for OpenOffice.org 1.1.x
