Helping Microsoft Office to become universal application
I was working on making OpenOffice.org universal application. After I realized that OpenOffice.org
build system is unusable for such stuff and stated it publicly on IRC channel, I was contacted by
Roz Ho from Microsoft and she asked me if I want to work for Microsoft on making their Office
universal.
The offer was so attractive that I immediately agreed to work for them. From now on, you can contact
me at
Pavel.Janik@microsoft.com. She also gave me URL
to their (our!) private SVN server (it runs on old Tablet PC and it serves 1000 developers!) and
I was able to change first 30 modules from 401 modules to universal binaries. Yay, it was very
easy. I like Office! I even got tickets to Cupertino to present our ideas and visions at Apple party
later today instead of Roz Ho.
I'll stay as the member of OpenOffice.org Community Council to help my colleagues with ODF
standardization. I hope you
understand
me.
