Dr. Matthias Stürmer organized a workshop to improve OOXML integration in LibreOffice. Participants included public institutions and developers. They identified issues like layout differences and prioritized use cases to address, like formatting of frames and tables in DOCX. The initiative aims to solve the collective action problem by coordinating funding and implementation. The next steps are to publish requirements, seek an implementing partner, and integrate improvements upstream into LibreOffice. The goal is to better support OOXML to increase LibreOffice adoption.
Have you ever asked yourself how can you leverage open source for selling your products or services, attracting talent and innovating? In the first part of this lecture I’ll give a historical context about how open source has transformed the Software industry and changed the way we develop, collaborate, communicate, organize and think about business values. In the second part I will talk about open source opportunities, challenges and what it means to successfully plan and implement an open source project from the practical side. I will also share my own Open Source management experience at Intuit.

User initiative for improving OOXML integration in LibreOffice/Apache Open Of...Matthias Stürmer
The talk presents the initiative “Layout-true Representation of OOXML Documents in Open Source Office Applications”. The success stories and challenges of this €140,000-funded project by Munich, Freiburg, the Swiss Federal Supreme Court and other public institutions will be explained. The session shall also provide a platform to discuss how to integrate the Apache licensed OOXML filter patches.
In a unique initiative, the German cities of Munich, Freiburg im Breisgau and Jena have joined forces with the Swiss Federal Supreme Court, the Swiss Federal IT Steering Unit (FITSU) and the canton of Waadt to provide €140,000 for the further development of OOXML integration in LibreOffice/Apache Open Office. Developed as part of a workshop held in October 2011 and published in December of the same year, the specification is designed to improve the future parsing and editing of documents from Microsoft Word, Excel and PowerPoint in the Open Source office suites LibreOffice and OpenOffice.org. Targeted improvements include the formatting of borders and images, plus tables and bulleted lists in Word (.docx) documents, correct display of comments from Word and Excel (.xlsx) and the possibility of embedding fonts in ODF and OOXML documents.
The tender document for the “Layout-true Representation of OOXML Documents in Open Source Office Applications” project was published by the Open Source Business Alliance’s Office Interoperability working group. Bids were submitted by the LibreOffice Team from SUSE and the Hamburg-based open source company Lanedo. Since the specification is split into self-contained work packages, both SUSE and Lanedo can work independently on the development tasks. Once released, the results of this work will be available below the Apache Software Licence 2.0 to all users of the free office suites LibreOffice and Apache Open Office.
The talk given by the leader of the OSB Alliance working group "Office Interoperability" will discuss the process and the current state of this initiative. The success story but also the challenges and how they have been overcome will be explained. The session shall also provide a platform to discuss with Apache Open Office developers how to integrate the OOXML filter patches programmed by the SUSE and Lanedo teams.

"The complexities and high costs of traditional enterprise storage are magnified in the virtual data center," said Yoram Novick, Founder and CEO of Maxta. "After being told repeatedly that expensive storage arrays are the only way to support enterprise applications in virtualized environments, IT organizations finally have an alternative to storage arrays that significantly reduces complexity and cost. Maxta has broken the code for integrating storage and compute into a converged virtual data center."

Introduction to research on open source softwareMatthias Stürmer
Open source software is being used by small and large companies, governments and other organizations in many business-critical systems. Nowadays there are approximately 1 million open source projects on the software market being developed and maintained by unpaid individuals as well as professional software companies and industry players. Research about technical aspects of open source software, business models, management and governance practices as well as community dynamics and contributor's motivations is abundant.
In this three day course master students of information systems get an introduction into current research about open source, read and present academic papers on open source, and write an own research proposal, conference submission or working paper about a specific topic of their interest. This may cover issues about open source in automotive industry, reuse of open source components, business models with open source, inner source development within pharma and many more.

Data Colonialism and Digital Sustainability: Problems and Solutions to Curren...Matthias Stürmer
The global datasphere is growing from 60 Zettabytes today to 175 Zettabytes in 2025. Much of this data and software is privately controlled by American and Chinese corporations with enormous market power. Only the seven largest big tech companies such as Microsoft, Facebook, Alibaba or Tencent already have a market capitalization of over USD 8700 billion, which is almost three times India's GDP. This trend is called data colonialism of the cyber space. What problems arise from this and how can they be solved? The concept of digitale sustainability addresses this challenge by presenting a new pathway towards greater data sovereignty.

Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.

Implicitly or explicitly all competing businesses employ a strategy to select a mix
of marketing resources. Formulating such competitive strategies fundamentally
involves recognizing relationships between elements of the marketing mix (e.g.,
price and product quality), as well as assessing competitive and market conditions
(i.e., industry structure in the language of economics).
Putting the SPARK into Virtual Training.pptxCynthia Clay
This 60-minute webinar, sponsored by Adobe, was delivered for the Training Mag Network. It explored the five elements of SPARK: Storytelling, Purpose, Action, Relationships, and Kudos. Knowing how to tell a well-structured story is key to building long-term memory. Stating a clear purpose that doesn't take away from the discovery learning process is critical. Ensuring that people move from theory to practical application is imperative. Creating strong social learning is the key to commitment and engagement. Validating and affirming participants' comments is the way to create a positive learning environment.

User initiative for improving OOXML integration in LibreOffice/OpenOffice.org
5. Motivation of the initiative
Currently Microsoft's Office Open XML (OOXML) format is
not well integrated in LibreOffice/OpenOffice.org.
However, this is necessary to successfully complete and
maintain migrations towards LibreOffice/OpenOffice.org.
Today various public institutions have switched to
LibreOffice/OpenOffice.org and fully use the Open Document
Format (ODF) internally.
Nevertheless citizens, businesses, NGOs, and other public
stakeholders continue to send OOXML documents, especially
.docx files.
These external stakeholders expect that the public institution
are able to handle such files.
5
User initiative for improving OOXML integration in LibreOffice/OpenOffice.org
6. Major technical issues
Opening OOXML formats is possible with current versions of
LibreOffice/OpenOffice.org
Unknown if visualization is conform to Microsoft Office 20XX
Most relevant OOXML support issues:
Layout of .docx documents regarding frames, images,
tables, enumerations, header/footers etc.
Fonts embedding (resulting in wrong or different layout of
documents)
Comments layout and editing in .docx and .xslx
Change tracking within .docx files

User initiative for improving OOXML integration in LibreOffice/OpenOffice.org
7. Collective action problem in open source projects
“Scratching a developer's itch” does not always work for
public administrations because they have different itches.
While open source projects bring great advantages for their
users, it inherently bears the problem of „collective action“.
Although it would be beneficial for all users to implement
enhancements in open source projects, no single
stakeholder is willing to invest sufficient resources to
accomplish this considerable development effort alone while
all the other beneficiaries would free-ride on the solution.
Therefore often status quo does not represent the optimum.
In order to solve this challenge coordinated action among
the stakeholders is necessary.
7
User initiative for improving OOXML integration in LibreOffice/OpenOffice.org
8. How to solve the collective action problem
Phase 1: Initialization
a) Mobilize attention and interest of several open source software users
b) Create clear and common understanding of the issues, ask the experts
c) Aggregate and specify the requirements, prioritize and cluster them
Phase 2: Funding
a) Organize coordination for Request for Proposals (RFP)
b) Send out specification to potential implementers
c) Do fundraising for the best proposal
Phase 3: Implementation
a) Organize project management, sign contracts, start implementing
b) Do testing among the open source software users, finalize development
c) Publish resulting source code, pass it upstream to the open source project

Method on how to bring public administrators and
open source developers to collaborate
13
User initiative for improving OOXML integration in LibreOffice/OpenOffice.org
14. Challenges
Stakeholders
Users: public institutions
Developers: LibreOffice and OOXML filter programmers
Challenges
Huge knowledge gap: terminology, standard specification,
structures and processes within public administrations etc.
Different perspectives: input oriented vs. output oriented
Different interests: perfect implementation vs. solving problem
How to bring them and collaborate together?

15. Example: technical insight for users (like myself ;)
Important difference between
a) error in OOXML filter
b) missing OOXML feature within LibreOffice/OpenOffice.org
What does that mean?
a) Little effort to correct OOXML filter
b) Large effort to implement new office feature
Example of not correctly displayed OOXML standard:
Alternating row colors of tables within .docx files
Little effort to 'hard format' colors (however loss of information)
Large effort to program this feature in office application,
missing feature in ODF standard

20. Most urgent use cases - low hanging fruits?
Use case bundle is called “Layout-preserving view of
OOXML documents in open source office applications”
Targeted use cases:
1. Formatting of frames and images within .docx
2. Formatting of tables within .docx
3. Formatting of lists and numbers within .docx
4. Formatting of comments within .docx and .xlsx
5. Font embedding for both OOXML and ODF
Every use case is specified by test documents

21. Current status of the user initiative
Phase 1: Initialization
a) Mobilize attention and interest of several open source software users
b) Create clear and common understanding of the issues, ask the experts
c) Aggregate and specify the requirements, prioritize and cluster them
Phase 2: Funding
a) Organize coordination for Request for Proposals (RFP)
b) Send out specification to potential implementers
c) Do fundraising for the best proposal
Phase 3: Implementation
a) Organize project management, sign contracts with implementers
b) Do testing among the open source software users, finalize development
c) Publish resulting source code, pass it upstream to the open source project

22. Initialization
Phase 2: Funding Funding
Implemetation
Funding model “intermediary”:
Problem: Public procurement
regulations requires clear results
Funding partner 1
for spoken money
Funding partner 2
Intermediary: Implementing
Funding partner 3 Coordination company
and contracts
Funding partner 4
Funding partner 5 Funding partner X

23. Initialization
Phase 2: Funding Funding
Implemetation
Funding model “cake slices”:
Technically there is one Legally there are several contracts
job to do: the cake which each define some specific
requirements: the slices
Funding partner 1
Funding partner 2
Funding partner 3 Intermediary:
Coordination Implementing
Funding partner 4 but no contracts company
Funding partner 5
Funding partner X
There will be one
implementing company
that makes several
contracts
