While I definitely applaud all efforts spend improving performance
of OOo, I see serious overlap in scope with existing projects. Also,
I believe calc performance issues should be discussed on the calc
dev list, impress issues on the graphics list etc. - or, if they are
of generic character, on the main dev list; and not on a dedicated
dev@performance list. As exemplified by Eike's post, probably the core
developers of the respective projects will do the actual performance
improvement work anyway (or at least will need to be consulted).

Ultimately, I believe development work is already fragmented enough
with the existing number of projects, so I'd suggest stripping down
the scope to measuring performance (as QA-ing performance again
seriously overlaps with the QA project).

Cheers,

I haven't had time to read the fine print. I've been writing non-stop =

Either my apology is good enuff, or I guess it ain't, but it's all I =

I'll try to read up on it tomorrow.

Came this utterance fomulated by Riley to my mailbox:
 

http://www.openoffice.org/ml_guidelines.html
may be useful to you if you are going to be replying to many posts.

"Replying
When replying to other people it is customary to intersperse your
response with their questions, both so you can answer the actual
question that was asked, and so everyone else has some idea what you =
are
talking about. It is also customary to limit your quoting to the =
minimum
possible to get your point across. Take the time to be considerate,
remember those subscribers who have slow, expensive connections."

Interspersing means replying straight after each point you are =
replying
to. Also called interleaved or inline replying.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Posting_style

Limiting your quoting means to trim the unnecesary outdated comments
from the email, remembering that several thousand emails are being
generated from one reply to the list will help to reduce stress on
inboxes.

The above does not normally get applied to the newbies asking =
questions
unless they subscribe, and join in with the discussion. We also try to
be tolerant with OT discussions and thread hijacking as well for the
same reasons.

I wouldn't know anything about software. I'm a innocent bystander =
myself. I've noticed there's a computer virus that copies people's =
names... I received copies of the same ignorant questions myself. Ya =
jus' cant trust anybody nowadays. Looks like they coulda had the decency =
to wait til April 1, so there goes decency out the window too.

I don't have a solution to your question but, uhm, I think you have =
violated the Open Office rules. I hope you don't get called down for it =
the first time.

I would stop it if I could. There was a time when I had big strong =
hands...

Does anyone know about this software that does real-time calculations=20
involving Motion that calculates Gravity & Momentum all real-time? I =
saw it=20
once being used at Plastics One. My son showed it to me. It was =
fantastic.=20
But he passed away and I didn't get the name of the software. At the =
time it=20
cost over $10,000. Sure wish I could get my hands on even an older =
copy or=20
if there's a freeware. I don't believe Open Office would ever work it =
up,=20
although maybe if I mention DONATION again hmm...

And actually, I don't have to have the Real-Time part either. I =
imagine that=20
made it so expensive. I don't might waiting for it to render. My big =
PC=20
server board has 1 1/2 GIGS of ram and 2 cpu's (but it's so fast it =
only=20
ever uses one of em).

If I just knew what to Google to find it I'd me better off than I am =
now.

Thnaks much. Woody

[discuss] Why not an equivilant to OneNote?

he way to do that is to get a handwriting recognition program that
diverts the input as if from the keyboard so it would work in every
application not just one particular app.

Mind, I have never got on with these. I'm not a particularly good typist
but I find using a keyboard much more efficient than any handwriting
software I have ever tried. I have a Samsung Q1 tablet with handwriting
recognition - anyone want to buy it :-)?

[discuss] bug found in OpenOffice Calc

Posted: 17 Dec 2008 03:04 PM PST

Hello Leo,

Yes, unfortunately, if your document is in od*-format, it will not be
removed. (.doc documents made with OOo will be removed as well.) This
does not mean, that in this case, the attachment ist allowed. There are
still so many places, where there is no broadband internet (even I have
broadband internet just for one year now, and I'm in Germany!). Or
people have to pay per volume, not time, and in such a case, sending
(huge) attachments can cost quite a bit of money.

So, in my opinion, it is better to just send plain text messages and
describe there, what problem you have.
