Hello,

maybe the verified builds would get a green check mark icon, and the others
a red question mark icon? There should also be a legend stating that builds
with the green check mark are supported and verified, whereas the others
might not work as expected. That being said, they can all be put on one
single page. If I understand correctly some of the Sun builds (the A-list
ones) are even not fully (100%) translated? If that is so (sorry, if I
misread some of the posts on this list), those builds are not better as
Slovenian ones, that are 100% translated since 2.0 or even before...

Maybe the page could be made more readable if it is not in the tabular view?
Remember also, not all platforms are QAed for some languages!

One solution is to use a language selector and then an OS selector (the OS
selector would update itself upon language selection:
A- if a build does not exist it would say "no build available"
B- otherwise it would display a string: "status-icon OS-identifier
(OOo-version, size)" like this (imagine x icon graphically, I cannot draw in
text here): "x Linux 64-bit RPM (3.1.1, 95 Mb)", where x is a small icon
representing either a check or question mark.

Very much like the main ooo page link to downloads (autorecognition of your
language and OS), but with more options and in a very clear, simple way,
stating clearly that some build might not be fully localized and/or tested.

Same goes for langpacks.

Lp, m.
