Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 37286
enable RSS on OpenOffice.org
Last modified: 2021-05-27 19:28:20 UTC
There has been recent discussion to enable RSS on OpenOffice.org. Lars Noodén has been spearheading it on OOo, but outside of OOo, there has also been interest. Andreas, Lars is probably the best contact in OOo at the moment to work with CollabNet on enabling this. thanks Louis
Lars, Unfortunately this RSS enhancement will be quite specific to java.net as they are funding that development effort directly. Here is what this version of the enhancement will cover: 1. All discussion forums will be available in RSS 1.0 format. No threads will be represented in the RSS and the feed will publish the following fields: <title> <link>, <description>, <dc:date>, <dc:creator> 2. A new domain-level servlet will be created to return a list of active discussion forums (based on input parameters activityInterval and pageSize) in XML format. This servlet will only return the discussion forums to which the user (making the URL request) has access to according to the CEE roles and permissions. We would like to expand the scope of the RSS requirement in the future, but the funds available for this quarter limit us to only consider the above scope. Which additional CN content areas have you considered having beeing made available in RSS format? Andreas
lars, while we wait for RSS, do this: Go to Gmane (www.gmane.org) create the newsgroup mapping to the OOo list, and then you are free to use RSS for that list. Gmane allows for RSS, news (nttp), and other useful tools. Thus, you can use RSS for discuss, users, and *any other list you choose* --and it's available now. NOTE: I have not tested this. Be my guest. Cheers Louis

I think that 3.5.1 has RSS. Let's check. Louis
I think RSS feeds for mailing lists provided at the OOo site would be helpful. This would help with many of the other requests like RSS for IZ acitivity, CVS activity, ...
Currently the RSS capabilities have been incorporated in our announcements tool in Danube (3.5.x). To use it you would use a link like e.g http://www.openoffice.org/servlets/ProjectNewsRSS to your RSS reader and get the news items from that project. Also, on Danube systems and later, the help file can be found at this address https://openoffice.orf/scdocs/ProjectNews#RSS The feedback from stefan with respect to extending this capabilities to other components is captured in PCN 47222.
To CRM
In the future release we have incorporated the RSS framework to be present for the entire Collabnet Community Edition . Hence moving this issue into the Resolved Later queue .
Updating the issue with the appropriate milestone .
Hi This feature is fixed in Rubicon and I have verified the same on a test box carrying the latest version. I shall close this case for now. Please feel free to re-open, if the functionality does not satisfy your expectation when site gets upgraded to Rubicon version of CEE. Regards, Vathsan Support Operations.
Re-opening the issue.
Marking the issue as Resolved LATER.
Approximately (Q3, Q4, 2009 Q1) when are the changes likely to percolate up to the OOo site?
CollabNet Support is currently reviewing the issues under Resolved-Later. If the issues are fixed currently in any of the present CEE releases, then it will be marked as Resolved-Fixed. There might be a few issues which might not be in our future roadmap which might be closed as Wontfix unless it does not lie under any custom request.
It should most probably be available in Q3 of 2009. Marking this as fixed as it is available in Rubicon
