Hi Andrew,
great to see that also the CWS data will be granted. Then also the very
most recent work is saved. :-)
Speaking of archives:
What about the older binary releases you can get here:
http://archive.services.openoffice.org/pub/openoffice-archive/
When the master server at Oracle is going offline, then also the files
on the mirror servers will go away with their next rsync job.
IMHO it is important to keep it for the case that users will not/cannot
install one of the recent versions (e.g., they need OOo 2.4.1 because
they have special marco / API dependencies). I've no download numbers
but this wasn't seldom in the past.
So, are the older releases also on the list of files that will be
transferred?
Thanks
Marcus

I am following the lists (which Mathias has provided me with early
versions of).
It is more than just source/make files. My current general categories of
file groups are:
- source/make files not covered in initial SGA (including files from CWS)
- binary resources such as artwork
- translation database(s)
- bugzilla artifacts
- web content from OOo
- wiki content from OOo
In all of the above categories, of course, it is important to determine
which files/artifacts Oracle has the rights to transfer.
We will also need to work through the granularity, in terms of the
identification of files/artifacts/resources, for the grant.
I am interested in any additions to this list (in general terms), and
also in specific lists of files.
(and just for the record, when we are ready to 'turn on the fire-hose' I
am creating archives of all of the relevant material,
and I'm waiting in the wings to get the transfers going)
