If you're interested, Friedrich and Erich together with Uwe (they did

lend a hand to create a "truly" English version of the ISO. :)

I think it is pretty safe to say that the marketing team would be
interested in an English version. I have just downloaded the ISO and
will take a look at it. I would offer to help but have extremely
limited coding experience. I can offer some help wherever I am useful.
I am pretty sure that all other NL groups would be interested in their
own version too.
Congrats to the German team for creating this.
Cheers

I usually do not make my discs auto-loading. I was thinking about
adding an HTML readme or index file to deal with the different versions
of the package with some directions for installation and where the
documentation and add ons are located on the disc.
As I said earlier in this thread, I tend to stuff a DVD full of
everything you will need for an office suite, plus any other open source
and free software that can be used by that person. I include anti-virus
software, malware cleaners, and a number of other useful packages where
there is room in my Windows Only DVD. My CDs are office suite related
stuff only.
I do remember getting a multi language, multi platform disc that
autoloaded to my default language and platform from some company [not
OOo/LO related]. Something like the web site does when you go to the
download page. This was nice of that company. Having a screen, HTML
for now, telling you which version to install and "helps" you do so
would be nice as well. Having a list of the "standard" extensions that
are useful is nice as well. I tend to want a selection of extensions to
be installed "by default" for all my install for friends and family.
Gives them a more usable system with some of these options added, like
language tools, pagination tool, etc.. I even give several calendar
files to help them like I use on my fridge for years. Then there is
every downloadable PDF documentation on using OOo/LibreOffice I can find
on my CD/DVDs. I tend to do a set of disks and then update the master
files/folders when I find updates for the
software/documentation/extensions that are included. It is a lot of
work to set up a basic folder and HTML index and keep it up-to-date, so
I usually just use a "one folder per platform" disc with folders for the
extension and documents separate from the platforms folders. It works
for my handouts, mostly.
