Jürgen
2010-05-20
  • New proposal has been sent to the list by Jürgen (here). The basic idea is to provide bounties instead of contracting one writer.
  • For any proposal, the development budget may require an upgrade. Matthias, Stefan and Martin will provide a proposal (Cor will join, see 2010-03-04#5).
  • Juergen talked with Clayton and they will come up with some drafts for the first bounties and in relation to the drafts with a set of basic rules/guideline that are necessary to run such a bounty program (see mail on council-discuss).
  • Next steps:
    • Juergen will summarize some information on a wiki page.
    • Budget discussion will be continued in next CC meeting. It is assumed that there will be more information on how much will be provided for each work package.
  • No real update, simply because the lack of time
    • Clayton and i are working on a wiki page to present/describe the idea of bounties and to present the first 4-5 bounty ideas. I expect that we can publish it soon, currently we make slow progress because of vacation or general unavailability.
  • We have prepared the initial wiki page (still a draft) and have described the first two bounties. More bounties will coming soon ... We already have some more ideas but we want to talk with some people about it before we put it as a bounty in the wiki. Important at this point was to define the basic rules and conditions for the bounty program. If there are no complaints we plan to announce the bounty program next week.

2010-04-29#2
Missing OOo desktop presence New
 ??? 2010-04-29
  • Request by a community member to discuss / decide the following question: "Why should OpenOffice.org give away it's presence on the user's desktop - the main place to be recognized by the people - only to support the "application independency" of ODF? A Sun employee stated "The idea of supporting ODF as a application independent open standard is the priority." This leads / will lead to changes with regard to the document and application icon design. The current ODF "only" icons seem to be undesired by the community. Original request to the CC on ooo-discuss: initial mail (2010-04-14), full mail thread
  • Discussion:
    • Some members stated that the request should be "more actionable" and "better framed" to be decided by the community.
    • Proposal has been made to forward the request to council-discuss to propose how to proceed.
  • Next steps: Christoph will forward the request to council-discuss.

  • OpenOffice.org is free software, but some of the extensions it offers to the users are proprietary. OpenOffice.org extensions library should not promote proprietary extensions.
