John,

I would like to request for the UDK project as what Ingrid requested for
the Chart. The UDK already is available as a 'standalone' component,
namely as the URE (Uno Runtime Environment).


The point I would like to repeat because I think that it was overread by some on this thread is that the "UDK already is available as a 'standalone' component'".

We have a third one, the SDK ;-) Ok the SDK depends on an installed Office but it is a separate product as well.



What this basically means it that what we do have here is a "second product" besides OpenOffice.org itself that is offered here and IMHO it is a very valid request to make this second product visible on the MAIN page. If we´d be a company "selling" two products we´d be stupid to not show both of them on our companys main page; same thing should apply here.

I haven't got a URE icon on my "Start" menu ... or to put it another

What is the "Start" menu? ;-)

The user audiance for this "second product" and the user audiance for the "main product" - OpenOffice.org itself do only overlap a little bit and it´s not "simple application end users only" it´s developers of extensions for OpenOffice.org and developers developing their own
probably not for extensions, that would be primary the SDK. But the URE is necessary for using the UNO technology in own new projects or applications.

Juergen

software totally in no relationship with OpenOffice.org which might make use of this "second product" and than there is also a subset of users which do create complicated documents with our "main product" which are enhanced by programming in various available programming languages which can make use of this "second product". This "second product" consist mainly of a technolgy (UNO) used inside the main product together with stuff like documentation and programming libs etc. If we would be talking about a house building company we would basically be talking about the bricks we use here. Now well we would like others to provide things for our houses other than those that we do currently offer ourselfs and to make those other things fit with the rest of the houses we offer they would be using our bricks. On the other hand our bricks are very good bricks and other things than houses (OpenOffice.org and OpenOffice.org extensions) can be build with it, that´s why we want to sell them seperatly [ well of course we are not selling anything, we give that away for free as well as anything else ;-) ] We want others to develop and offer extensions for OpenOffice.org and we do also want to allow that technology to spread into other software.

Basically what´s being asked here for is to get those bricks which are our "second product" on the main-page. Can we do that please?
