References to "Apache OpenOffice"

by Nick Kew-3 :: Rate this Message:

| View Threaded | Show Only this Message

I've seen a couple of recent references to "Apache OpenOffice" appearing
in public places.  Places for which Apache committers are responsible.

Have I missed a graduation, or a change in practice concerning use of
the Apache trademark in the context of incubating projects?

If you identified the public places and were more specific about it, it would help us to clean it up as appropriate.

Seen today (posted I think yesterday) on planet apache:
"Perspectives on Apache OpenOffice 3.4 download numbers".

On www.apache.org right now,
@TheASF: Did you know that #Apache #OpenOffice v3.4 was downloaded over 5M times since going live 6 weeks ago? http://t.co/xQ3tpQI8 #TheApacheWay

In fact the word pair "Apache OpenOffice" appears no fewer than three times
on the front page www.apache.org at this moment.  None of those three are
qualified with any hint at its incubating status.

Thanks Nick, I'll pick it up with the PPMC.

Sent from my mobile device, please forgive errors and brevity.

Nick, the AOOi project does not write those tweets from @TheASF and they are not under AOOi control.  

Are these and blog text occurrences the ones that attracted your attention or are there others?

If you follow the links to the referenced blog posts you will see that the full term is used in the blog title.   E.g., <https://blogs.apache.org/OOo/entry/5_million_downloads_of_apache>.

Would it have been sufficient to add it in the title of the individual post, and in the first mention in the opening paragraph?

How many times do you require that the qualifier be used to satisfy the requirement for identifying incubation as the origin of a release, an announcement, etc?

So what appears on www.apache.org doesn't matter?

Nor what appears on planet.apache.org, featuring the article that first struck me
as using the name in a way I wouldn't expect when I read it in my feed reader:
http://www.robweir.com/blog/2012/06/pache-openoffice-34-downloads.html

I should think so, but that's just me!

> How many times do you require that the qualifier be used to satisfy the requirement for identifying incubation as the origin of a release, an announcement, etc?

If the guidelines are unclear then maybe they need reviewing?
I was just pointing out usage that seems at odds with my understanding
of the incubator rules.

If a blog gets aggregated, then readers will see what appears in their
aggregator, as I did.  That's without the context of the page title in your link!

Following that link in a browser I see there's also a nice but questionable logo:
http://www.robweir.com/blog/images/get-aoo-300x100-cf.png
If PR are OK with that then fine, but I find it surprising.

hmm - I suppose you are correct, it shouldn't have the feather and
should have the incubator tab - right?

@Nick,

Ross offered to come to the AOOi PPMC to fix it.  I'm not clear what the PPMC has to do with it.

Specifically, @TheASF is not of AOOi PPMC origin.  The question is, who is expected to do something about that and how is it to be communicated to them?  Someone else is responsible for those tweets and their aggregation on the ASF home page.

Also, you refer to a blog post by Rob Weir on his own site.  It is true that Rob Weir is a member of the AOOi PPMC, but that blog site is not a product of the AOOi PPMC and its aggregation into Roller is no different than the aggregation of any Apache committer posts that a committer arranges to include in the feed picked-up by Roller.  (I believe the PPMC did authorize that "Get it Here" image and link to be used by sites that wanted to promote the availability of the software.  If there should have been greater formality before doing that, there are places to raise that specific problem.)

My concern is how to determine what the infractions are that someone can do something about and also being clear who that someone is expected to be.  The general claim just has us running around like headless chickens over on ooo-dev.

 - Dennis

PS: I'm now in time-penalty and will check back anon.

With reference to the Podling Branding Guide [1] , the requirement is
that the product be called "Apache OpenOffice".  That is the name.
Nothing else.  But we're also required to "mention that the project is
under Incubation".  There is more than one way of doing that.  Also,
"These statements only need to be disclosed upon the first reference
in a document."  IMHO, we've done that for the blog posts as hosted on
ASF servers.  But it is not clear if or how we control other parties
tweeting links.  But I assume if someone feels strongly about
controlling things at that level they will propose a way.

[1] http://incubator.apache.org/guides/branding.html

Actually, we did approve that logo as a PPMC as part of a download
promotion program:

http://incubator.apache.org/openofficeorg/get-it-here.html

We ran that by VP Branding as well.  I could be wrong, but my
impression was he approved as well.

The PPMC does not control the Apache.org home page.  If the ASF
decides to aggregate posts from the committers planet, then maybe that
should come with a disclaimer?  Or bring in just the project blogs,
not the committer blogs?  I could be talking about anything on my
blog: OpenOffice, beer. satantic rituals, bagpipes, perhaps all at
once.   It probably should not automatically all be promoted to the
ASF home page.

As for the project blogs, maybe we should just enhance the aggregator
logic on the ASF home page?  For example, Google+ gets does it well,
pulling in the blog title along with the post title.  Se here:
https://plus.google.com/u/0/114598373874764163668/posts/ZiRcwog5cDJ  .

If you try to fix it in the content itself, then you end up with
suboptimal results for Google+ and other places that do bring the blog
title along, ending up with something like "5 Million Downloads of
Apache OpenOffice (incubating) : Apache OpenOffice (incubating)" which
looks sloppy.

There is more than one way to make it right, so it might be worth a
quick discuss on ooo-dev.

Or if you are in a JFDI mood, the live copy is here:

Ok - well, I still have the original SVG file on disk, so I'll work with
that - I'll put, as always, a link to the oo-dev ML with the draft
change.

Off to fire up the editor, see you back at oo-dev.

Hi Nick,

I'm top posting because it is clear to me what is happening here:

(1) The Title of the AOO blog is "Apache OpenOffice (Incubating)"

(2) The Title of various blog entries includes the phrase "Apache OpenOffice", but not the phrase "Apache OpenOffice (incubating)".

I have the karma and will fix these blog entry titles except for the Japanese one, but I'm going to wait 24 hours.

Regards,
Dave

Wearing my IPMC and PPMC hats. I've changed blog entry titles. Sorry for our oversight (or lack). Thanks for yours.
