Well, theres still the image of the worldmap inside that button, so even when you don't know what "native language" means, you could guess from the image. If you mean that http://projects.openoffice.org/native-lang.html itself needs a redesign, then I can tell you that the project pages are already worked on. If you have ideas on how to improve the page to make it more obvious for the visitor, then poste your ideas to [email protected] > Sorry for me dropping in on this, > but would it not be an idea if we could check the visitors browser > and/or system settings, and depending on this redirect the visitor to I don't like detecting of browser langauge or language by IP or something for the content of a webpage. It might work well for mirror-selection (select a mirror geographically near you), but doesn't work very well for website content. > the appropriate NL project. Every NL project could place a link to: > OpenOffice.org International, or OpenOffice.org Worldwide. The big problem is that by far not every nl-project provides the info the english pages have. You can always visit your NL-project directly using your <language-code>.openoffice.org - a scheme very widespread across all possible websites. So I'd rather not have automatic selection. The job of the native-language projects furthermore not not to translate everything that is in english, but to create a community in the respective language. There are lot's of common points of course.. ciao Christian -- NP: Metallica - Until It Sleeps --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
