Hi Per,

I have created the guide here:
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Development/OpenOffice.org_Building_Guide

And these are the page created so far:
OpenOffice.org_Building_Guide
OpenOffice.org_Building_Guide/Introduction
OpenOffice.org_Building_Guide/Getting the source
OpenOffice.org_Building_Guide/Basic Concepts
OpenOffice.org_Building_Guide/Build Requirements
OpenOffice.org_Building_Guide/Windows Build Requirements
OpenOffice.org_Building_Guide/Mac OS X Build Requirements
OpenOffice.org_Building_Guide/Linux Build Requirements
OpenOffice.org_Building_Guide/Solaris Build Requirements

Now to the articles that describe the building for the various platforms.
I have read through the existing documentation, and come up with the following headlines. Do anyone feel it should look differently?

OpenOffice.org_Building_Guide/Building on Windows with Cygwin
OpenOffice.org_Building_Guide/Building on Windows with Visual Studio
OpenOffice.org_Building_Guide/Building on Mac OS X
OpenOffice.org_Building_Guide/Building on Linux
OpenOffice.org_Building_Guide/Building on Solaris


I would like it more, to have the "Requirements" in the same chapter as "Building". That means main chapters for the OS and then subchapters as needed. Otherwise I would again have to "collect" the information that are relevant for my OS. On the other hand, I do not know whether a subchapter "Requirements" is really needed. During the guide [1] you are told, which things are needed and -more important- what you have to consider when installing it or copying to the right place.

You have the two chapters "Windows with Cygwin" and "Windows with Visual Studio". Is there a way to build OOo with Visual Studio without Cygwin? I don't know.

For "Windows with Cygwin" link to
[1] http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Building_OOo_with_Cygwin_on_Windows

The guide is very good. With that guide I was able to get my first build :)

kind regards
Regina
