Ask whom? where? That's the problem! On the last release date bouncer was not actual for about 12 ours (after the release note). I believe, the problem was, that no one with bouncer access could change the database because they are not reachable.

I really want to use bouncer too, but not if we have to involve other persons to update our download-links. The worst case for every release are not working download links! Then You will ever have some kind of specialist posting direct links to the servers (also on the great IT-portals) and comments like "look, they are not able to publish there own download links, do You want to trust such a team or its product?" I say it again, if there is a way to change the links for bouncer without help, I'll be happy. And that's what we try to solve at the moment. >> >> Regards >> Marko Moeller >>> >>>> is there any possibility to get this latest version in german or >>>> is it not yet available? >>> >>> >>> It's available via the german website >>> <http://de.openoffice.org/downloads/quick.html?version=2.1.0>. >>> Simply select Mac OS X PPC. > > You can have localised download pages too, other NLCs use the bouncer too. Yes, because they have not such a lot of qa'd stuff or an existing download tool like de. > Regards Marko --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
