Porting : Implement native font support, using native Apple API (Aqua / X11)

Does concern : OpenOffice.org 2.0.3 or superior, for Mac OS X port (both Aqua and X11 versions) Skills : knowledge of languages C / C++ , using Carbon/Cocoa API, knowledge of font systems and font technology Subject proposed by : none yet Tasks :

(1) analyze current implementation : design, concerned modules, isolate classes and parameters

(2) propose a design for the new one, using Apple API

(3) write and test a proof of concept

If enough time : (4) implement the solution, with possible backport to X11 version.

Porting : Integrate the native Mac OS X FilePicker into OpenOffice.org (Aqua/X11)

Concerns : OpenOffice.org 2.0.3 or superior, for Mac OS X port (both Aqua and X11 versions)

Skills : knowledge of languages C / C++ , using Carbon/Cocoa API

Proposed by : Tino Rachui Tino.Rachui@Sun.COM

Integrate the native Mac OS X FilePicker into OpenOffice.org The OOo FilePicker is already designed as a UNO component. What is needed is a new implementation of the FilePicker component based on the native Mac OS X FilePicker as it has been done on MS Windows for instance. On current Mac OS X port of OpenOffice.org, the current FilePicker is not native, less ergonomic.

Possible tasks :

Familiarize with the native Mac OS X FilePicker API and the OOo UNO interfaces for the FilePicker Describe current implementation : design, concerned modules, isolate classes and parameters to manage propose a new design using Apple API write and test a proof of concept

Porting : Mac OS X Address book integration (Aqua / X11)

Subject proposed by: Oliver Braun nerd at warpsite dot de

Synopsis: OOo currently is integrated with the Mozilla address book but not with the native Mac OS X address book. This is annoying for Mac OS X user. For better system integration it would be desirable to integrate with the Mac OS X address book.

Concerns: OpenOffice.org 2.x for Mac OS X (both Aqua and X11 versions)

Skills: Knowledge of languages C/C++, Mac OS X APIs and Application frameworks like Carbon or Cocoa for instance, knowledge of the Mac OS X address book APIs

Tasks: Familiarize with the Mac OS X address book API's Familiarize with the current OOo Mozilla address book integration Make a prototype for OOo Mac OS X address book integration
