Hi bei,
Of course we can discuss whether it will be useful to invest such cost for
download of a more or less outdated version, but I I can not agree with your
comment. May be that we can not create some monster database knowing every
current update status, but of course it is no good marketing that we lead
willing users to <about:blank>, <Error 403 - Forbidden> (Estonian), <No matches
to your request were found> (German). It's ok to forward to a Native Language 
Page.

I still see a BUG

Steps to reproduce:
1. clear browser cache and cookies
2. goto <http://download.openoffice.org/1.1.5/index.html>
3. select language "German" (everyone will select this first intuitively)
   you will be forwarded to 
   <http://download.openoffice.org/1.1.5/contribute.html?lang=German>
4. press 'Continue Download'
   expected: forward to some existing webpage
   actual: <http://de.openoffice.org/about-downloads.html> error message

That's not acceptable

How it should work:

11. clear browser cache and cookies
12. goto <http://download.openoffice.org/1.1.5/index.html>
13. select language "Dutch" 
   you will be forwarded to 
   <http://download.openoffice.org/1.1.5/contribute.html?lang=Dutch>
14. press 'Continue Download'
   expected: forward to some existing webpage
   <http://nl.openoffice.org/downloaden.html> with selection for 1.1.5

Some further results for different languages:
Dutch:     ok 
      <http://download.openoffice.org/1.1.5/contribute.html?lang=Dutch>
Arabic:   ok
   <http://ar.openoffice.org/>
Afrikaans:   ERROR, no language shown on forward page
   <about:blank>
Basque:   ok
   <http://eu.openoffice.org/index.html>
Bulgarian:   ok
   <http://bg.openoffice.org/index.html>
Catalan:   ok
   <http://www.softcatala.org/wiki/OpenOffice.org>
Cesky:   ok
   <http://cs.openoffice.org/>
.
.
.
German:   ERROR
   <http://de.openoffice.org/about-downloads.html>
... 
So I believe we have 2 different problems:
1. Please fix the "Afrikaans" - problem and check whether other languages are
affected

2. The forward leads to wrong download pages of the Native language projects
(like "de") or the native language sites use wrong forward pages like
<http://de.openoffice.org/about-downloads.html>. 
The correct german download page for 1.1.5 is
<http://de.openoffice.org/downloads/quick.html?version=1.1.5>, not
<http://de.openoffice.org/about-downloads.html>, to where the download button
from <http://download.openoffice.org/1.1.5/contribute.html?lang=German> will
lead. Currently I can not decide whether that's a problem with de.ooo (I think
so, they should use a standard forward URL) or with
<http://download.openoffice.org/1.1.5/index.html>, but we have to discuss that
here finally so that a solution for de and other effected languages (I will
check systematically soon) with the same problem can be found.
