2007-01-06
Late last year, the leadership of several important 核心 事業／計画（する）s changed 手渡すs. Some of the new leads have been leads in other 事業／計画（する）s and take on new 責任／義務s; others are new to the 職業. What does a 事業／計画（する） lead do? That depends on the 事業／計画（する）, but it's usually considered 役割 that 連合させるs 行政の, 管理の, and leadership 義務s, and 代表するs a very high level of 信用. The 事業／計画（する） leads for the 受託するd technical 事業／計画（する）s are in particular important to OpenOffice.org, for they are 大部分は 責任がある what makes up the source to the 使用／適用, 同様に as for reaching out to developers.
The に引き続いて 始める，決める of short interviews, of which this is the first (others will follow over the next week), is meant to introduce them to the community. As with all of OpenOffice.org's leads, they are open to the community and welcome developer 利益／興味 and 接触する. A co-lead's 役割 may be 平等に 決定的な to the 事業／計画（する）.I asked Frank Meies, the new co-lead of the Writer 事業／計画（する）, more or いっそう少なく the same questions I asked the others....

Tell us about yourself: who you are and what you do....

My main field of 専門的知識 is the text formatting and layout engine, but after almost 6 years of experience, I'm やめる familiar with almost any code in Writer. 現在／一般に I'm working on some interoperability 問題／発行するs, more 正確に, we're 器具／実施するing a new （米）棚上げする／（英）提議する model.
What does the Writer 事業／計画（する） do? and how does it relate to the 全体にわたる OpenOffice.org 事業／計画（する）?
I consider the word 加工業者 to be the heart and soul of OpenOffice.org. But other developers might think this of their 事業／計画（する）s 同様に ;-)
What would you like next to do with the 事業／計画（する）?
I'd definitely like to spend more time on refactoring the Writer code, to 改善する its maintainability.
