Now that I finally stumbled over this mail thread...
I wonder who the OOo devs could be? It would have been neat if they
had
contributed to the LibreOffice project.
I don't know who they exactly are but it is easy to speculate. It is
Easter time so we can search some Easter eggs. ;-)
Have a look for the former Release Manager of OpenOffice.org and the
actual Senior Product Manager of Open-Xchange and you will find one.
The
others are near by.
Some hints (in German): [1]
If you didn't find your Easter eggs yet - I guess Xing is a much better
tool than the article ;)
https://www.xing.com/companies/open-xchangegmbh/employees#history:https://www.xing.com/companies/open-xchangegmbh/employees?ajax=1&page=5
But that's not all of us - not all use Xing.
But I don't think that there is any interest to contribute, neither
from
the former OOo devs nor from Open-XChange, a former daughter of SUSE,
who are in the same building complex with the headquarter of SUSE
[2].
So it would be an easy way to take a cup of coffee, do a short walk
and
talk f2f.
As a side note - we are not in the same building.
The OpenOffice Team still is where the roots of OpenOffice started more
than 20 years ago - in Hamburg. Open-Xchange had launched a new
development site just for this team.
Why don't you think we are not interested in contributing?
Open-Xchange is an open source company. OX Text actually is open
source!
With OX Text there is nothing we could contribute to AOO/LO. Everything
is very different from OpenOffice, everything is written in Java and
JavaScript.
But for PDF we actually use OpenOffice as a conversion engine. We found
and fixed some bugs (still do), and we contribute back the patches to
both OpenOffice derivatives. If you see stuff coming from Sven Jacobi -
he is taking care for the Open-Xchange contributions to LO and AOO.
Best regards
Malte.
