Marcus The set of Apache mirrors offers different domains and domain types, some of which might be more easily reached through restrictive firewalls. At my company I'm able to download from SourceForge but some other open/public/shareware/freeware sites are blocked. Plus, some businesses are blocked but university domains are generally reachable. So, yes, getting on the Apache mirrors might make AOO more accessible for downloading. Finally, I've added some hints: New link entry in the nav bar on the right side: http://ooo-site.staging.apache.org/download/test/index.html New TOC entry and text section: http://ooo-site.staging.apache.org/download/test/other.html If you see improvements just tell me.
