This communication should be directed in two ways: keep local communities informed on what is happening internationally, and keep the international community informed of what is achieved by the local communities.
My hope is also that TDF will be able to bring more help, if it is informed of the achievements, difficulties, wishes and needs locally.
The role is called Liaison and should be carried by one volunteer chosen by the local community, or self represented if there is no local community yet.
To know more about Liaison, please read this page. This is a first process that I’d like to enhance with the help of the Liaison members.
To discuss about the role and (in the future) with other Liaison members, join our discussion forum.
Don’t be shy, introduce yourself and tell us all 😄

Scraping the crashreport website, with Xisco Fauli
The crash report server was started in 2016 (LibreOffice 5.2). Problems: a lot of clicking around; website super slow; use of backslashes in Windows traces; crashes sorted by date->newest in last page
So, Xisco made a script that goes through all the crash reports and generates better/easier-to-read info: crashreportScraper.py – it generates a nice CSV with all information compiled.

Please anonymize my document! With Eyal Rozenberg
Many people have bug reports, but can’t attach their documents because: it’s personal; it’s a draft. (Business contract, etc.); or under obligation not to disclose. (Working for big corporation, etc.)
Work needs to begin on creating a tool that can replace text/images with anonymized versions, allowing people to submit more documents to their bugs. (Making it easier to reproduce/fix.)

Dominique Welt, Ph.D. Candidate and instructor at McGill University, writes:
This summer, my paper on using LibreOffice Base to teach relational database management was featured at the Twenty-eighth Americas Conference on Information Systems (AMCIS). AMCIS is the Americas’ major conference for management information systems scholars. The paper draws from my experience using LibreOffice Base to teach relational database management at McGill University in 2021.
