I think you are right, in that it should not be on that page. I think we (and I mean we) might of jumped a little too quickly there. IMO upubuntu.com is, from what I can ascertain, acting in a way which the project should not, necessarily, object to as there seems no real harm, however one which personally I am not comfortable with. I rather think in this case they certainly should of sought the project's approval first. With an eye to location on our site, as is, I would not put a link on this page[1], it makes it seem too much a recommended and sanctioned distribution IMO. I would not be against treating it as a short term news item, and perhaps in whatever manner the group decides to treat sites offering CD(DVD) images or disks. //drew [1] http://www.openoffice.org/download/common/instructions.html#other_linux > > >> > >> > >> 2012/5/11 Rob Weir<robw...@apache.org> > >> > >>> > >>> http://www.upubuntu.com/2012/05/how-to-install-apache-openoffice-34-via.html > >>> > >>> Is there someplace on the website or wiki where we could add this > >>> link?
