OK. But then it would be more useful to integrate a function, which checks the OS language and maybe a dialog like "Your $OS is using $language. Would you like to see the requirements in $language, before you install LO?" And maybe then either open the adequate wiki/TDF homepage and/or some other way to show it ... ;) But that would be a completely different feature request ... ;) > Unless release notes are meant only for English speaking users, or just for > Americans. No, I don't think so. But I am not sure, if they are entirely translated at all available languages ... :( >From my POV it would bloat the download size of LO, where most win users are always complaining about ... :( I mean, it is a feature request ... ;) It is FLOSS as well. If you want this feature, you can try to find a developer to implement it or find people, who would vote for it by adding themselves to CC of this bug ... ;) Sorry for the inconvenience Thomas. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
