I can at least point out what is missing from the spec...
* Handling of different languages
As Sophie already pointed out, not all languages are officially
released at the same time. Native-language teams do QA independently
and not for all operating systems.
* What criteria defines when a update is ready for the check to return
"yes, update ready"?
* What URL will be returned?
One single one or an URL depending on the language? (and when
language - the language of the base version or that of the
currently used language (languagepack))
Individual URLs depending on OS/Platfrom/Language?
(not necessarily part of spec, but nice to know anyway)
* While not necessarily part of the spec: Who will be able to update
the versions? E.g. how will non-Sun-built versions be handled? Will
they be able to use the OOo-Update-URL as well? Who maintains/has
access to the version-info-table/database/whatever is used?
* Handling of language packs
* How does OOo detect installed language packs in the first place?
The variable "AllLanguages" from versionrc doesn't include it.
(so the query sent only includes the "base" language)
* What if not all languages are availabe in the updated version or in
two different newer versions?
ciao
Christian
