You're making things up here. On all systems, LO will default to the system's (Operating System's) language if that corresponding language is installed for LibreOffice. If you want a different one, go to Tools|Options → Languages and pick the language. Same procedure on every OS. And you're completely missing the point that Jelle made (and that exclusively applies to the Windows version): The installer itself is localized and comes up with the language of the OS. I personally think that this is a great feature, and while a few immigrants or emmigrants will be presented with a version of the OS itself they don't understand, it is nothing that should be reverted. If you cannot change the regional settings of your user account, then those people should by now heard of http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=13209 I have no insight on hard it would be to add a button "use english" for the installer - but in any case: File an issue in buzilla, just discussing it here won't change anything. ciao Christian -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to l10n+h...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/l10n/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
