| on the |
| improvement of the OpenOffice.org API and the development tool support |
| for the OpenOffice.org SDK, both with the goal to make the development |
| of OpenOffice.org macros, scripts and components easier. <br> |
| In this session I will present the roadmap for all |
| “programmability” |
| related work we have planned for the next minor and major |
| OpenOffice.org releases. So I will show how we use the new UNO features |
| we introduced in OpenOffice.org 2.0 to make life easier for developers; |
| how development of components will become easier with new code |
| generators and the integration of our SDK into IDEs;<br> |
| IDE support and new features for Add-On developers; improvements for |
| OpenOffice.org Basic and the Scripting Framework; new features for |
| component development (e.g. licencing, versioning and signing); |
| improvements of component registration, deployment and integration; |
| some examples and demos (e.g. from the Google Summer Of Code).<br> |

| made available stand-alone in the form of the UNO Runtime Environment |
| (URE). That has opened up the opportunity to utilize UNO in |
| all kinds |
| of application areas. The relative advantages and |
| disadvantages of |
| using the URE in areas outside its original domain of OpenOffice.org |
| are discussed |
| and demonstrated in this session. Also, an outlook is given |
