There was a discussion on this patch on the dev list. I would have cc'de Piotr but he didn't put his full name or contact information in the patch comment. There was a concern over the link to the PrOOo-Box website. Some of us (including me) were concerned about putting advertisements like that on an NL homepage. As a non-profit we need to be fair and not promote one 3rd party over another. So one solution discussed was to do similar to what we do with the main English pages with winPenPack. We have a general page for 3rd party ports and distributions: http://www.openoffice.org/porting/ So it might be good to add info about PrOOo-Box to that page. And then if you want, you could translate that entire page, or link to it. > Rob had already commits recently > (http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/openoffice-dev/201306.mbox/%3cCAP-ksoh5=eJqq1vCbeQFYou8CzEH4s=soh5gqtmvoswxqwv...@mail.gmail.com%3e), > but currently stocking the work of Piotr because no one commits. > > We have already discussed the changes on the German mailing list, so maybe > Raphael, Oliver Juergen or are ready to take on the commit? > *In general, we need the next time relatively much support during committing > as many websites need to be updated.* > I agree that we want changes to be committed quickly. But that requires good communications between the contributor and the committer who checks in the code. So a good idea would be to send a note to the dev list, saying, "Hello, I'm Piotr. I'm planning on making some changes to the de website. I'll need some help getting this committed. If anyone has a question regarding a patch, please send me a note). I understand enough German to review patches for the de NL page, but it would be better, of course, to have a native speaker.
