Hello Kay,
First, please ignore the post I sent just now, the approach I talked
about won't work for the home page, but we may want to think about what
to do with some of the much older version, e.g. 2.4.1. I don't even
think they're linked right now. OK, on to this post.
latest with the coming 3.1 the older 2.x versions are just maintainance
releases. They are available and can be reached/downloaded and thats it.
My opinion is that we shouldn't put much effort into this.

Hello Kay,
IMHO there shouldn't be any problems when:
a) putting the other variables in it.
b) move the file to download.openoffice.org
a) renaming VERSION into STABLE_VERSION and modifying the other HTML
websites respectively.
Again, OK, but I think this difference would apply only to folks
wanting to download development versions, and I'm not sure if this
would come into play with our normal download.
I would like to have the renaming to identify for what the variable is
when we have a lot more in the future.
OK, I did just add several "versions" and other variables you spoke
about to globalvars.js which is now in the download area if you want to
take a look. Or, if you want to try to use them.
The globalvars.js is in your playground, right? Can you please add the
file to the root directory of "download.openoffice.org"? Then I can test
this with the "download.openoffice.org/test" websites.
I can change the index page of say download.openoffice.org/2.4.2 to use
the new js file for a rather non-harmful test. My only concern IS that
each of these old index pages will need to be manually changed when we
go to newer versions. I don't like this really, but can't come up with a
working alternative at the moment.
Yes, I know that some annoying changes are coming to us but I don't see
an alternative, too. ;-(
BTW, to create the "next" website was also a reason to get rid of the
many 680er links that are wide spreaded all over the OOo websites. Now
we have to go all the other websites and do a find & replace, starting
with "download.openoffice.org/index.html" ...
Thanks for your help.
Best regards
Marcus
