Hi,
within the last days, we had a discussion the request for providing more
ful installation packages.
The need was raised by the serbian team [1] but is valid for almost all
languages. Rafaella did forward the request to the OOo Community Council
[2].
For the Council (and I think for all of us) it's important to understand
the real needs ("we need all the builds on all platforms in all
languages" is no good answer to this ;) ) and the problems we have. So
I'd ask you to answer these questions (at least those of you who can
provide good input).
- What are the requirements of the native lang teams?
E.g. do we really need full installation sets on each platform (even
several installation sets for some platforms). Do we need all the
packages at the same time? Do we need the files on the mirror network
... (these are just some items that come tomy mind).
- What are the restrictions we have to face?
Restricted resources for distribution were mentioned - I'd lik to see
concrete numbers here. Esp. the question if these limited resources are
under our control or not is important.
Problems with limited build resources were also mentioned - I hope,
someone can provide details.
I asked some people to (temporarly) join this list, so we hopefully have
all people here to discuss the topic. And I hope, we can get to a
compromise how to improve the situation afterwards.
Best,
André
