Heck yes. For right now it might be most efficient to have me do the first pass cut in of a page and then you can edit as needed, for a few days at least and you can spin up on the details of working with the CMS as you do. > > I've got an idea on how to layout the files for a system where there is > > one .iso image with all three languages on it - I have another for doing > > three .iso images with one language each. > > > If we have a better menu structure, with the second navigation line like > LibreOffice site has, then I would like to see a "Addition To" type of > name.

Yes I agree, from the point of view of the disc production platform - the CMS does have a way to handle this and moving files to the CMS is one of the first tasks to accomplish, one that will start this evening. > I still would like to see them on a > LibreOffice site instead of an OOo one. Different subject, IMO, and given my reading of ALL the emails lately on multiple lists from multiple organizations I figure that is about to be a given. > > > I'm planning on doing the first - one .iso image with all three (English > > only to srart) languages supported.

Actually I would go with a different approach, for the .iso, which would be a single home page where the user selects the language (fr or en or es) and that takes them to the top level page for that lanuages UI, which of course offers links the files for that language. Of course there are gong to be some files (many perhaps) that are shared. But for the on-disc files I would not be in favor of offering this at a page level. For the CMS based user facing website where we distribute the .iso this may make sense, but that is not something we need to work out today IMO. > > Are we going to have a 3.3.x site and a 3.4.x site since both are part > of LibreOffice's site?

Good question - I would be in favor of a single .iso for the moment at least and would prefer to see us go with the most stable release available Thanks Drew -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to [email protected] Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/us/marketing/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
