Hi again,

I was acting as a member of the qa team for this issue.  I don't have any 
links with the en-GB team, apart from being British myself.

I think what Stefan is suggesting is a special English download page for 
British English, but what David has requested is the British English version 
to be added to the current download pages at 
http://download.openoffice.org/2.0.1/index.html. 

It is important to point out here that British can understand American English 
(and Americans can understand British English), but people choose the British 
version out of preference.  I.e. color --> colour.  This means that a special 
download page *just* for British English is not required on the grounds 
of "people will not be able to download as they can't understand the standard 
(http://download.openoffice.org/2.0.1/index.html) download page".
However, if a special page is required by policy to get the en-GB version on 
the http://download.openoffice.org/2.0.1/index.html download page, or it would 
just make things easier in the long run, then this should be done.

If someone is required to maintain a special British English download page, 
then I would volunteer to help maintain it, if this is the only way to get it 
listed properly, although as mentioned before I am not (currently) a member of 
the British English internationalisation team.

May I also make the separate suggestion that the British English version be 
added to the standard mirror network, to make things easier, and at least get 
it on three UK mirrors.  However if this is a separate issue, then it should 
be filed as such.

Thanks.
