Due to recent changes in our download javascript programming, the older download script on many of the native language web areas was no longer functioning.
After noticing this change, some of these areas were recently retooled by volunteers, but most had lost the download box generated by the old download scripting. The areas which were affected were the following native language sites: cs, de, es, fr, gl, he, nl, pt, pt-br, sk, tr, zh-cn. Currently, from the list above, the "he" and "zh-cn" sites remain to be fixed, hopefully by volunteers from those areas. In fixing the remaining sites in the list, Google translate services were used to fill in the blanks on some needed strings. So, even though the download areas now function correctly we need help with verifying the language that was used on the download pages for these areas. We have several native language areas which have their own download process and were not affected by recent changes. And, we have many other native language areas for which we now distribute binaries but can only be redirected to the main English download page because the download information that was maintained at these sites was no longer valid. The following native language areas could use some help in making the downloads for them more friendly to the native language users: hi, km, ko, ru,sl, sr, sv, ta, th, vi. zh-tw. Links to these native language sites can be found by using the following link: http://www.openoffice.org/projects/native-lang.html Information on how to help with Apache OpenOffice's native language process can be found on the project's native language page: http://openoffice.apache.org/native-lang.html Please forward this message as you see fit. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MzK "To be trusted is a greater compliment than being loved." -- George MacDonald
