Milestone 0.1 | 0.2 | 0.3 | 0.4 | 0.5 | 0.6 | 0.7 |  0.8 | 0.9 |  1.0 

Tools
The current tool we use, is subversion. This is the tool provided by Adullact, but we'll change for git early 2010.

Branches

 * Stable version (will become 1.x ) is named trunk and is based on OOO320_m10 (will follow the OOO320 OpenOffice.org branch for the fixes)
 * Unstable (will become 2.x ) does not exist at the moment, will be created after git switch,  and will be based in DEV300 branch
 * branches/1.0 : will be removed. We used it until 0.6. This branch is based on DEV300_m57, but is obsolete already.

DF Milestone.png Milestone 0.2
Fixed:


 * have the right default toolbars on Writer
 * default icons are now Crystal / big size
 * removed useless templates
 * yet another new About logo : thanks again to Ben !!
 * build process on Linux ( .deb) works nicely
 * (Mac only) performance : patches from issues 100172 + other : not perfect, but the delay when the first character has been hit in a new document, is now more acceptable

DF Milestone.pngtone 0.3
Goals : provide


 * Linux Intel (both 32 and 64 bits)
 * Linux PowerPC
 * Linux MIPS64 (gdium like)
 * Mac OS X Intel
 * Mac OS X PowerPC
 * Windows XP

... and complete the list of tasks below

DF Milestone.png Milstone 1.0
'''Expected by Christmas 2009 ? :-)'''

DF Milestone.png Future version

 * Implement a new .png loader, to replace the current .bmp one (if not done)
 * (performance, usability) change the default number of open sheets in Calc to 1
 * (performance, usability)change the number of columns to a multiple of 16 ( say 256) and the number of rows a multiple of 128 ( proposed : 1024). See OOo wiki, number of rows
 * Fix (means choose) the code tree to be used : will be 3.2 branch
 * new idea (suggested by Kevin Le Roy) redesign the Start Center: propose a template or to open a file once the type of file has been choosen
 * implement an assistant for every type of document (needs to write all the scenarii first)
 * remove dead code : everything calling Database (and take care about the side effects)
 * remove complicated features in Calc, and other applications (FIXME: list me ...)
 * in order to teach children how to type properly, it could be nice to have a kind of "type or die", TuXType, ktouch game implemented in OOo4kids. This could be launchable under the Tools menu.
 * Very important : default font : have a dyslexic friendly font instead of "times new roman". Let's say "Lexia" (check licence problems) or Andika : http://scripts.sil.org/Andika, suggested by Christian Lohmaier (Andika Basic is released under the SIL Open Font License)
