Hi,

this thread started as l10n topic CCing BizDev and IMHO it's now completely off-topic here.

Best regards,
Peter

Yes I agree thin client is not good option. Do we have any central patch

No OOo is build monolitically so patches can't just be merge into a
binary. But also it cant just be re-compiled on the fly. This was
addressed further with issues around the localization where we couldnt
just provide new language patches. As opposed to builds, but I am not
a builder so the details are not that clear to me as far as describing
the technical issues.

It really depends on the ITC policies, and yes, OOo can be updated
relatively simple specially on Linux. Current versions of OOo are
update rather simple through an update script. However windows might
be different.

Oracle sees this as a way to make money and product differentiation by
making their commercial platform (Oracle Open Office) be able to
update by downloading simple update packages.

I do have some questions, for example, openoffice.org can support a
version control on the network that similar to Active Directory for
unattended machines. This is provided by a company in the US through a
Java service.

Also there are other ways to deploy OOo such as OOo-LAN mode which can
be installed under a thin-client 'like' environment having 1 OOo
runing with several users using it from their desktop. However people
that have tried this have told me that it could be very network
intensive.

Hi,

Can we install one local openoffice.org server in a office which will
update the product from openoffice.org main server. Openoffice.org
installed in desktop in LAN should be updated from local server instead
of internet.

Hi all,

Thanks for your email, and I agree this is a great concern for the
user experience that international communities have. Also an issue
that maybe business and consultants could pick up.
 From what I see in my daily job with companies, we disable the
registration, the update functionality, the feedback program and any
query that may be activated, etc. Most of the time, users are not
allowed to browse on Internet at the office, so all the functionalities
that need Internet connexion are disabled.
Versions need to be internally qualified before deployment in the
company, they do not follow up on the latest version we release
(sometime they need one year to qualify a version...).
This follow also the request from Olivier to disable the start center
or
the ability to customize the links on it to internal repositories. So
for us the localization of these parts are a concern for individual or
very small companies not for larger one. In my opinion, it's more a
marketing concern about the professionalism and the quality we're
offering.

Kind regards
Sophie
