Greetings,
I've been working on an OpenOffice.Org 2.x development kit for Ubuntu 6.10.
The purpose of the kit is that it has on 1 cd everything you need to
compile and localize OpenOffice.Org, no internet connection or additional
downloads are necessary. This is to help parties in Ethiopia undertake
translation and other localization work on OOo more easily.
Unfortunately, OOo has to be recompiled every time to make use of new
translations. OOo is also the most demanding software I've ever encountered
in 15+ years for compilation. The setup is made to be as simple as it
possible so people can get right to work and not fight the system for weeks
on end.
I'll look into providing an ISO image for people who want to try it, I'm
not sure if that's going to happen unless I can find a site that can
handle the bandwidth. If anyone would like a copy of the CD, please just
send me your land mail address offline and I will send to you. If you are
in Ethiopia I'll also include the Ubuntu 6.10 CD.
cheers,
/Daniel
