Contributing Code to Apache OpenOffice

Hello,

I'm interested in contributing the source code of my application to Apache. The application name is LTX2MathML, which converts a subset of LaTeX math to MathML. It is written in C++. It can be used as an alternative input language for your math editor.

I have just uploaded it to CTAN and it will be available at https://ctan.org/tex-archive/support/ltx2mathml by tomorrow once approved. Although it has a GPL 3.0 license, I am willing to license it also under the Apache License 2.0.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Regards,

Peter F.

P.S. I also have a mini-PostScript interpreter, which you may find useful in converting an EPS file to another format.

I would appreciate it if someone else would take over. Someone who can
overlook the code and give more substantial answers than me.

My priority is on the 4.1.8 release.

OK, I haven't connected his code not really with OpenOffice. But you can 
try to revert my possible mistake. :-)

Hi Marcus,

What I understand is that Peter wants to contribute the code to Apache
OpenOffice:

"It can be used as an alternative input language for your math editor."

We can already import MathML from the clipboard, so maybe this could
enhance Math in form of an extension?

Regards,

   Matthias

Hi Peter,

thanks for your interest in Apache. Please note that Apache is more than 
just OpenOffice. ;-)

Therefore please get in contact with the Incubator team [1] and read 
about a need proposal [2] when you want to contribute your code to 
Apache in general.

Thanks for your understanding.

Hello Peter,

That is very generous of you.
Are you thinking of the donation as-is or would you also like to work on 
integrating it with AOO?

Do you have an Individual Contributor License Agreement on file with Apache?
If not you can find out more about them here [1].

Best regards,
Carl
