If this is not the proper forum, perhaps someone could point me to the
proper one, but I am trying to find out what is necessary to be done to
have a new language available for OOo.

You might have to download a so called "languagepack" for the
language you want and have to install it alongside your OOo version.

Once you have installed it, go to Tools -> Options -> Language
settings -> Language and choose there the default language you want.
You will have to close OOo completely (even the Quickstarter if you
use it) and restart OOo for the change to take effect.

Hope this helps.

After sending my email, I was afraid it would be construed that way. I don't mean adding a language to my installation that OOo already supports. I mean adding a language to those that OOo supports. I'm specifically thinking of the Neapolitan language (I dislike using the term dialect, but it is commonly referred to as an Italian dialect).


I would recommend the following:
http://contributing.openoffice.org/native-lang.html
It is the contribution page for those wishing to help with furthering
OOo and where you can get the list information for localized languages.
Good luck!

Tom
