Hi Marcus, *, not sure why this slipped my radar, but still:

Number of full-builds provided by Sun: only a handful selected ones. Number of langpacks provided by Sun: ALL. >>> It's up to the native lang teams to test also language packs if they want >>> to >>> make them available for the endusers. :-) >> >> Don't agree with the smiley here. >> You created the page because only "power users" are aware of mirrors. >> But now you're giving the argument that you need to be power user to >> use languagepacks.

Again completely missing the point. A) There's no full installer for the desired language B) The desired language has not been approved yet, people didn't find it and did select the english version instead. So you tell them to wait until somebody did QA on the langpack to be able to find it. That's just mean. >> At least add a prominent sentence like "If your language is not >> listed, then have a look at rc directory on extended mirrors.

Then the whole page is useless IMHO. ciao Christian --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@l10n.openoffice.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@l10n.openoffice.org
