and following the links:
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Languages
for detailed information.
I did that early on, got to the page native-lang.html, and could not
find any language packs - and now I must say I also do not find the link
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Languages on that page - which
is OK, I can do that URL directly - but still do not find any links to
the language pack mirrors, just some info about how to get a language
pack built.
Then again, there is always:
http://documentation.openoffice.org/
[Documentation in Other Languages]
http://fr.openoffice.org/Documentation/Index.html
or entering 'language packs' in the first documentation search bar which
yields this:
<http://documentation.openoffice.org/searchresults.html?cx=008361175193398611882%3A4ksrp-acl3c&cof=FORID%3A11&q=language+packs&sa=Search>
<http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/How_Tos/Adding_More_Languages>
And somewhere in all that mess, you may eventually find:
<http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Download_OpenOffice.org_LanguagePacks>
Again, I don't see that final URL among the 9 links returned in that
search, nor on the "dding_More_Languages" page - which is bizarre,
because of course it should be in both places. (At a minimum, how could
the page "Download_OpenOffice.org_LanguagePacks" *not* turn up in a site
search on "language packs"?) But that page is indeed the winner - you
supplied the page Harold Fuchs was thinking about when he said I should
be able to find the language packs at openoffice.org, without going to
the mirrors. Thanks! - bookmarked.
... you'll find that language packs are only as good as the
volunteers that help to maintain them. OOo is an opensource project, so
if you are able to assist/volunteer for any of the language projects I'm
sure that your help will be greatly appreciated.
Point taken. Thanks again,
John
