It's a good idea. I've also made the native-language name a link to  
our project page, so people can find more info.


We're keen to get more testers. ;)

[native-lang] Language Packs

2008-01-23 Thread Martin Hollmichel

Hi,

recently I got several questions like where do I get the Language Pack 
foo for platform bar. Since I know that there are some releases of 
some local communities of the language packs, there was no comprehensive 
list on where to download language pack for testing (or just trying) 
purposes. That why I created 
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Download_OpenOffice.org_LanguagePacks 
to provide such a list. I find the list of 65 language packs quite 
impressive and also think that this list might also be used for 
marketing purposes.


So now I'm thinking of:
* also linking to the download pages of the local projects
* add a how-to install language packs
* adding Linux deb packages and MacOSX packages
* add links to dictionaries
* using bouncer for that downloads
* split the table into pieces and add some nice graphics for the platforms

I think the main entry point to localized version of OpenOffice.org 
should stay as is in the native-lang communities but I'm also convinced 
that such overview pages might also help to increase visibility of the 
project and participation in the native-lang communities. Shall we 
continue such an effort ?

This is a very nice idea, provided that:
1) You specify somewhere that Language Packs in RC stage are untested
   (the Italian community, for instance, never does QA on language
   packs: it could well be the case that a language pack listed on your
   page is completely unusable).
2) You don't duplicate too much information: for example, as Andrew
   Jensen already wrote, a comprehensive list of dictionaries is
   available at http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Dictionaries
   and I'd rather point to it instead of duplicating information.

Regards,
  Andrea Pescetti - Italian NL project lead.

Yes indeed. I should also point out that the EN_GB langpack (not  
maintained) should be advertised more due to a constant demand. I  
would like to make sure that links to these langpacks appear visbly on  
each NLP project's page...


Thank you for putting this list,

Charles.
