Framework Lead: Carsten Driesner Framework Co-Lead: Mathias Bauer

This is the Framework Project Wiki. It is planned to move most content from the http://framework.openoffice.org pages into the Wiki. Probably most interesting for many people is, what we are currently doing in the Framework project. You can find that in the work in progress area. One of the bigger things is to better support extension developers.

The Framework Wiki follows this organization.

To Dos

You can find a list of tasks that we would like to implement but until now didn't find the time to do so. These tasks can be implemented by experienced C++ developers that want to help us. You would definitely get support or help of the regular framework developers. If you are interested to work on one of these tasks please contact us on our "dev" mailing list or via e-mail to the framework project lead.

Articles & Tutorials

Contributions

Patches are most welcomed by the framework project. Those who submit patches deserve a lot of credit for dealing with a build environment which to say the very least can be intimidating. To acknowledge the efforts of these people and the work they have put in, here is a little info on them. If I have forgotten anyone here or there was omissions or something just plain wrong send an e-mail to mailto:cd@openoffice.org .
