The OpenOffice.org project tries to keep everyones interest in mind.
Corporate as well as individual. Please see my earlier response.
Everyone is free to create documentation in the license of their
choice. We will be happy to link to it from the Third Party page.
The project itself, tries to keep some of the legal guesswork out of
submissions, thus the usage of PDL and JCA. Basically, the idea is
that if you get a document from the OpenOffice.org project itself
there is a certain level of understanding that is maintained through
EVERY document.
The Third Party page is there so we can point to some of the GREAT
documents that exists elsewhere, but may not follow the same level of
submission process. Trust me, over the past um, 6? years now,
keeping track of all this has been FUN, to say the least. ;-)
Scott,
thanks for the lucid explanation. It explains a lot that wasn't clear
before.
With regard to the Third Party page; how does one request a link and
is a certain volume of work required to justify such a link?
If you have something you want linked you can request it to myself
directly, mail the list (with email reminders to me if it doesn't happen
in a timely fashion.), or create a task in the issue tracking program.
It would help if we know, Price of document, free is fine, license, etc.
