Hi :) Yes, i think the idea is to test the site's uploading process to see if it's reasonably easy for people to use. If your templates and Extensions have not been through beta-testing yet then it might be good to write that in the description or as a comment or something so that when people download it they know it's a beta-testing version.

Re: [libreoffice-marketing] Extension website - broader publicity wanted
Tom, who gets to upload all the 180+ dictionaries that are out there [and on the LibreOffice-NA.US online version of its DVDs]? I see that there are the 4 French, an Italian, a Russian, plus maybe a few more when you look at all of the extensions online the list. You get only the French ones if you search for language aids/tools. I really think these dictionaries should be listed there tagged as language aids or tools. There are over 20 localized Spanish dictionaries to choose from. OOo has their dictionary list, where most of my list came from, so we should have our own list as well.

Re: [libreoffice-marketing] Extension website - broader publicity wanted
Hi :) Hopefully someone might find a way of doing that from 1 server (OOo's?) to another (LO's) rather than having to download to a desktop machine and then re-upload. Apparently right now there is no good way of doing bulk uploads/transfers but maybe after the site has been beta-tested? I don't have a clue. It's not my project and i wasn't involved at all. Something i wanted and made a fuss about a few months ago but never got involved with the work. I thought the idea had been killed off tbh until suddenly the announcement was being drawn-up.

Re: [libreoffice-marketing] Extension website - broader publicity wanted
Well since OOo's Extension site is offline, last time I checked, someone could take them from the LibreOffice-NA.US domain and upload them to LO's Extension site. Still, there should be a category called Dictionaries. That would make it easier for people to find them. Language Tools or Aids type of category might not work for some, plus not all of the currently uploaded dictionaries are found with that category. The Here are the Dictionaries type of category, like OOo has in their opening extension page, would make it much easier for people to find them. There are over 180 of them, so they should have their own category. Language Tool, Writer's Tools Writer Extras, Linguist, Pagination, and the other non-dictionary tools for helping you with writing your documents should be in a category apart from dictionaries, since there are so many dictionaries and so few of the writing aids that are not dictionaries. There may be 10 or a few more of these writing tools vs 180+ dictionaries. The 10 would get lost withing the 180.

Re: [libreoffice-marketing] Extension website - broader publicity wanted
I was going to ask about Chinese spell checkers, but realized that glyph-based words/languages may not be suitable for spell checkers. Grammar and word use systems may be the only one for a computer-based document. I am glad I do not have to deal with a glyph-based language like Chinese or Japanese. The only good thing about single glyph based words/languages on a computer system is that you do not have the spelling issues that multi-character based words/language have. You have only the glyphs that are in you language font to deal with. Of course, you could use the wrong glyph thinking that is was the correct one for the word you wanted. I would be hard pressed to learn a glyph-based language. With my memory issues, I would never be able to remember which glyph was which.

Hi, the repo-website is from my site in good shape for a start now. The content, which will be created on the site, will stand for the future (when I do some minor changes to the site). E.g. I solved an issue with the display of different licenses in the project overview site (will be online this week). We have currently fourteen projects with fifteen releases online, but we need to encourage more people to bring their extension to a wider public. Am Sonntag, 21.
