| <p><b>Project Owner:</b> <a href="mailto:mh@openoffice.org">Martin |
| Hollmichel</a> <br/> |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| The project <strong>external</strong> hosts source code related to OpenOffice.org that is exempted from the general copyright and/or licensing rules. Sources may fall under licenses different from those used by the |
| <a href="http://www.openoffice.org/license.html"> |
| OpenOffice.org core codebase</a>. |
| These sources are not covered by |
| the <a href="http://contributing.openoffice.org/programming.html#sca">Oracle Contributor Agreement</a> |
| and thus copyright is not shared with Oracle. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| Different kinds of source are dealt with below |
| </p> |
| <ul> |
| <li>Unbundled Extensions</li> |
| <li>Infrastructural Libraries</li> |
| </UL> |
| |
| <h2> Unbundled Extensions</h2> |
| <p> |
| Additional functionality for OpenOffice.org may be provided as |
| an OpenOffice.org Extension. |
| Authors of Extensions are invited to maintain |
| their Extensions within the official OpenOffice.org Extensions Project. |
| This will enable you to use the facilities of the Extensions |
| Project (mailing lists, issue tracking) and the source repository |
| for collaboration purposes. |
| </P> |
| <P> |
| You may do this without signing the OCA, provided that you comply with the |
| current terms of the following 'Exempted Contributions Guidelines' for |
| 'Unbundled Extensions'. |
| Specifically, 'Unbundled Extensions': |
| <UL> |
| <li>are not intended for incorporation in the OpenOffice.org core codebase; |
| <li>are not and do not include any OpenOffice.org code or documentation, or any modifications (including bug fixes) or derivatives of that code or documentation; |
| <li>do not include the principal office productivity suite functionality that is included in the OpenOffice.org core codebase such as a word processor, spreadsheet, a presentation editor, a database data editor or a mathematical equation editor; |
| <li>are licensed under |
| <a HREF="http://www.openoffice.org/license.html">OpenOffice.org licenses</a> |
| (see http://www.openoffice.org/license.html); |
| <li>have their home (and not only a copy) in the |
| <a href="http://external.openoffice.org/source/browse/external/exemptedextensions/">area for exempted extensions</a> (/external/exemptedextensions) in the OpenOffice.org source repository; |
| <li>are not part of dependencies the core codebase contains; |
| <li>will not be bundled with the binary product package OpenOffice.org in binary form; |
| <li>will preferably be distributed in binary form via the |
| <a href="http://extensions.openoffice.org">extension repository</a>. |
| </ul> |
| |
| <h3>Initial Submission</h3> |
| <p> |
| In case you want to make use of the hosting of exempted source code extensions please follow these steps: |
| <ol> |
| <li>Check license against OpenOffice.org licenses (Contributor) |
| <li>Fill out the following form and submit the data to Issuetracker using component |
| <a href="http://www.openoffice.org/issues/enter_bug.cgi?component=external&subcomponent=exemptedextensions&version=unspecified">external/exemptedextensions</A> |
| (Contributor) |
| <br> Extension Name: |
| <br> Provider Name: |
| <br> Contact: |
| <br> Description (not more than 3 paragraphs): |
| <li> Review for compliance to guidelines and Approval (Project Lead "external") |
| <li> Add License Header (<a href="http://www.openoffice.org/dev_docs/guidelines.html#Sources">example</a> used for the core codebase) |
| (Contributor) |
| <li> Commit to area for exempted extensions (Contributor with the help of Release Engineering) |
| </OL> |
| |
| <h3>Maintenance</h3> |
| <p> |
| The contributor will be enabled to maintain the source in the source |
| repository. |
| The project |
| <a href="http://extensions.openoffice.org">extensions</a> |
| provides the infrastructure (mailing lists, issue tracking) for |
| collaboration on extensions. |
| </P> |
| |
| <h2>Infrastructural Libraries</h2> |
| <p> |
| Infrastructural libraries are examples of third-party technology which provide system related services. This type of libraries is in most cases not only used by OpenOffice.org but also by other applications. In general they are packaged with the Operating System Environment (e.g. Linux, Solaris). They are hosted in this project <a href="http://external.openoffice.org">external</a> for completeness (not all OS distributions have them prepackaged) and reference (the OpenOffice.org build has been built with the specific version of third-party code hosted here). |
| </P> |
| |
| <h3>Initial Submission</h3> |
| <p> |
| In case you want to make use of such libraries and they are not yet available please follow these steps: |
| <ol> |
| <li> Check license against OpenOffice.org licenses (Contributor) |
| <li>Fill out the following form and submit the data to IssueTracker using component |
| <a href="http://www.openoffice.org/issues/enter_bug.cgi?component=external&subcomponent=3rdparty&version=unspecified">external/3rdparty</a> |
| (Contributor) |
| <br> Product Name: |
| <br> Product Version: |
| <br> Vendor or Owner Name: |
| <br> Vendor or Owner Contact: |
| <br> OpenOffice.org Contact: |
| <br> URL for Product Information: |
| <br> URL for License: |
| <br> Type of Encryption: none |
| <br> Binary or Source Code: |
| <br> Purpose: |
| <li>If the license fits to OpenOffice.org's licenses the contribution |
| can be accepted and the form is published below. This step may |
| involve Sun Legal. (Project Lead external) |
| <li>Import external source to the OpenOffice.org source repository and create new module (Project Lead external) |
| <li>Checking in third party source code (Contributor with the help of Release Engineering) |
| <li> Apply needed changes: Changes / additional files can be committed to the repository (Contributor with the help of Release Engineering) |
| </ol> |
| <p> |
| A little technical <a href="ext_dmake.html">Howto</a> |
| for adding external components to OpenOffice.org could help with the |
| integration in the build process. |
| </p> |
| |
| <h3>Maintenance</h3> |
| <p> |
| Contributor will be enabled to maintain the third-party library with support from release engineering. |
| <p> |
| Modifications and updates of the third-party source or the applied changes follow the established OpenOffice.org development process. |
| <p> |
| Please note that license changes have to go through the process for initial submission. |
