| | | | |
| | + | There was a longer discussion on how sustainable these internships are, quite controversially. Even if interns don't show up after their internship has been finished and we don#t see them all acting as multiplicators it seems useful to run the Internship again. |
| | | | |
| − | === Minutes === | + | === Activities of the project === |
| − | TBD
| + | |
| | | | |
| | + | There's a lack of visibility of the OpenOffice.org project between releases. We are in the moment too weak on PR and other things. The OpenOffice.org 3.3 release had some good coverage in the press. |
| | | | |
| − | === Decisions made ===
| + | Contributions from non Oracle developers have decreased. It was suggested to invest in areas of the OpenOffice.org product where it is easy for 3rd party vendors to provide their own work. We already have a good basis for this with the template and extension repositories. |
| − | # Trademark
| + | |
| − | ## cc decides in two weeks on the trademark proposal, then discussion brought to dicsuss@
| + | |
| − | # council coordinator
| + | |
| − | ## [http://council.openoffice.org/servlets/ReadMsg?list=discuss&msgNo=2090 proposal] approved: Cor is the first one in this role, then Stefan, and after 4 months we already vote for the third period.
| + | |
| − | # Budget
| + | |
| − | ## Waiting for outcome of taxes, then more clear budgetting
| + | |
| − | (see log)
| + | |
| | | | |
| | + | For the Templates site there is some room for improvement: |
| | + | * better and more templates |
| | + | * leveraging the voting system |
| | + | * better search capabilities, better categorization |
| | + | * better integration in the template dialog, integrated search etc. |
| | | | |
| − | === IRC log ===
| + | In some areas similar applies for the extension site. |
| − | * [[Community_Council_Log_20090528]]
| + | |
| | | | |
| − | === AI's ===
| + | Also the integration of content feeds (blogs, news, other references) within the startup were discussed (like Netbeans, MS Developer Studio, etc. do). |
| | | | |
| − | # Budget
| + | Preparation for the upcoming 3.4 release are ongoing, activities in the QA and l10n projects are recovering again from last years “event”. |
| − | ## Louis: use marcon list and post to wiki list of events selected for importance to the community and to OOo's goals

| − | # Procedures for retirement of a project in Incubator and NLC

| | | | |
| − | == 2009-05-14 == | + | === Internship 2011 === |
| | | | |
| − | === Agenda of that meeting ===
| + | Plan is to prepare internship for 2011 with focus with above topics (template and extension site integration), Stefan will ask for providing mentorship again. Especially the re-design of the template dialog might require some more efforts, more money will be put on this if required. |

This means this year the MP will be awarding OOoCon 09 and 10, then next year OOoCon 11, etc. As time was short, John agreed to continue this conversation on the CC list. Action John--''completed''

Some discussion about the Councils offer of their availability as community contacts to Oracle.
Jürgen will write up a summary regarding the internship 2010 (AI Jürgen), this should be published soon. Jürgen stated that the internship was quite successful and many of the results are expected to get integrated into the code.
There was a longer discussion on how sustainable these internships are, quite controversially. Even if interns don't show up after their internship has been finished and we don#t see them all acting as multiplicators it seems useful to run the Internship again.
There's a lack of visibility of the OpenOffice.org project between releases. We are in the moment too weak on PR and other things. The OpenOffice.org 3.3 release had some good coverage in the press.
Contributions from non Oracle developers have decreased. It was suggested to invest in areas of the OpenOffice.org product where it is easy for 3rd party vendors to provide their own work. We already have a good basis for this with the template and extension repositories.
Also the integration of content feeds (blogs, news, other references) within the startup were discussed (like Netbeans, MS Developer Studio, etc. do).
Preparation for the upcoming 3.4 release are ongoing, activities in the QA and l10n projects are recovering again from last years “event”.
Plan is to prepare internship for 2011 with focus with above topics (template and extension site integration), Stefan will ask for providing mentorship again. Especially the re-design of the template dialog might require some more efforts, more money will be put on this if required.
