[Issue 126777] New: Web site update for WHY -> "Office 2003 EOL"
https://bz.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=126777
Issue ID: 126777
Issue Type: DEFECT
Summary: Web site update for WHY -> "Office 2003 EOL"
Product: Infrastructure
Version: current
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: Minor
Priority: P5 (lowest)
Component: Documentation
Assignee: issues@openoffice.apache.org
Reporter: jan.asf@cominvent.com
The page http://www.openoffice.org/why/why_office2003-end-of-life.html is out
of date as it says "Microsoft has announced that they are ending support of
Office 2003 and Windows XP on April 8th, 2014"...
Since we do not manage to keep such time-sensitive information up to date,
let's either rewrite it into a general "No more EOL" page discussing the
general problem of needing to upgrade at EOL, or get rid of the page
alltogether.
Now that Office 365 is getting more popular, perhaps it would be cool with a
page showing the true accumulated cost of subscribing to Office365 over a
period of, say, 5 years...?

Resolving, setting NOT_AN_ISSUE not to deny the issue but to remark that the
current discussion is happening on the mailing list and not in this issue.

This is an inappropriate procedure for staging contributions into Apache
OpenOffice content.
The originators must manage to make the contribution themselves. If it is
substantial, a CLA may be requested. Working second- and third-hand is not
acceptable. That applies to a couple of other recently-opened bugzilla issues
also.
Project committers will ultimately determine the acceptability and form for
incorporation of such contributions into project content.

There is a policy issue about "Why?" in any case.
The Apache Project is not an advocacy organization nor is it engaged in
competitive activity. Those are not in the spirit of the Apache Software
Foundation's commitment to production of software as a freely available public
good. It is not the purpose of AOO or any Apache Project to disparage or
assess the work or products of others. The purpose of the project is to do
good work and make it available to the public.
To discuss this further, please comment on the dev@openoffice.apache.org list.
The bugzilla is not the place for this conversation, which is about a serious
policy matter.

Yes but, this page can be accessed from http://www.openoffice.org/why/

Nice idea
You could write this page and attach it here.
Once done, we'll update on website.
