3d. My second question is, why is
not<http://www.openoffice.org/participate>, the material at
<https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/openoffice/ooo-
site/trunk/content/xx/participate/index.mdtext> used. That page was
created in August 2013 (also by robweir) and has been part of fixes made
as recently as 2014. This xx area is perfect for localization usage,
and would allow others to create localized versions, it seems to me.
Again, if this folder is not actually used on the site, should it
not be deleted from the current SVN trunk?
My preference would be for the xx to be used so that the
opportunity for localizations in other languages, not just German, could
be handled in what appears to be the standard way.

I don't know. I think it was simply not used. If there was a decision
then it is years ago. But you are contributor as long as me for this
project. So, you could know it also - or even not. ;-)

I know we had decided that we use the w.oo.o domain for the software and
just a little for the project. With oo.a.o it was the opposite. Over the
years this limitation got a bit more fuzzy and the both webpages can be
one of this fuzziness.

In order to anticipate your next question:

Yes, we can change it. I would also go for the
"xx/participate/index.mdtext" webpage as it can be localized and
integrated into the localized webpages. Then the user can get approached
in their own language which is - of course - more effective than to
speak in English only.

Great! I think that would be a better way forward.

to start a bit easier I would first copy & paste the content from
"get-involved.html". Put the - now known - main problems and
requirements first und put thinks like donation at the bottom. And then
add new things into the right order.

If there is no volunteer faster, then I will start beginning or at the
weekend.

on a second look the both pages [1] and [2] are very similar. So, I have updated just a few things and kept them equal. If there is more to do just give me a hint.
