I notice things in the content itself at the staging site
(ooo-site.apache.org). I might be able to learn to edit the ooo/ooo-site
pages, but I don't want to get ahead of myself.
Not sure which works better, bugzilla for some, wiki for others. Just not sure. Is
there a bugzilla "project" for these. www?

PS: Examples - the sort of thing I am noticing
1. I had a lengthy back-and-forth with Larry Rosen on Terms of Use and have
guidance that I think will work with regard to wiki, forum, and site pages.
(Not the same for all of them.) Also about Trademarks. (What you have at the
bottom of the main pages is close, others need more care. May be a few
variations to use.)
Good. I wanted some guidance here. CWiki?
Or, let's find the pages and make the changes.
2. A Q about the bottom-of-page use of the feather and mention of "the Apache
CMS."
I've asked [email protected] in general about the look. What's your question? I
just sort of came up with it and now I'm asking too.
3. Bug on the left of this page:<http://ooo-site.apache.org/es/> above the
blue bar.
You mean "We're sorry"? I'm not sure either. There are lots of little flaws
like that. URLs are somewhat random, some are fully qualified and others are properly
relative. This includes css and js that are not always found. These are the kinds of
errors that will take some tedious time to handle.
4. This page, for Downloads, linked from the ES home page, has a PayPal button and solicits $25
donations for downloads:< http://ooo-site.apache.org/es/programa/index.html>. The
solicitations are for the "oooES" PayPal account.
Yes, I've flagged that as well - Alexandro should be able to explain oooES. I
think it is in a similar category to Team OpenOffice. I've found a paypal
button in the Greek site to an individual for translation work. Not sure about
others yet. I'll know when we're complete. These were all sanctioned at some
point and I think the PPMC will need to decide policy in conversation with
[email protected].
i think it's very confusing to have this individual donation places and
i would remove them all. Furthermore i would suggest that we really
rethink our portal "www.openoffice.org" in the near future. I don't see
the necessity of having too much different content on the localized
pages. A 1:1 translation of the English pages should be ok for all.
Maybe each regional page can have their own news feed to announce local
events but that's it. We should keep it simple.
All the community work and information specific to regional communities
should move into the wiki and forum from my point of view. Main
development work and communication around this is done in English anyway.
And i don't think that this is similar to Team OpenOffice.org because
Team OpenOffice.org was the only official instance that was allowed to
collect donations from the OOo sites. All others were not allowed as far
as i know. They were tolerated but not more. Don't ask me why, i have
never understood this.
well, that is my personal opinion
