But this version is rather for consumers not developers. It is their own version with their corrections and released in a single-packed-binary. Not as a locale pack for some version. If you want to download "Polish" you have to download 100MB. You can not choose a language in this 1-binary version and it is slightly different (corrected). So this is not a developing version. People from outside have to walk a longer way around to obtain sources, eventually work for ux if they want to work on Polish sources. I am not condemning ux, as they are doing a very good job, but I feel there must be done something so the Polish version will not mean "ux" version only, for those who visit pl. pages, like it is now. It's not too good even for them. This is more the Microsoft way of blocking information - a guy who was using ux and some Red-Hat based Linux told me when I told him that I use Ubuntu: "Ubuntu is a takeoff from Debian and if you want to use Polish OpenOffice, use ** (some linux that has ux versions)" It can't be like that! It's killing the possible development of the OpenOffice by Polish. But it will change. Ux should be praised and admired, but I think they should also be releasing locales for developers. What the use of a corrected code will be if it won't be compatible with the original? I wonder how it is in other countries.
