Do you want me to work the pages?

If we have a better menu structure, with the second navigation line like 
LibreOffice site has, then I would like to see a "Addition To" type of 
name.  That name would make a second line with:

Extensions    Dictionaries   Templates and Sample Files     Artwork and 
Galleries

I wonder about the shared resources, beyond the themes and install 
files.  It would be nice to see the dictionaries, extensions, templates, 
and artwork, in a shared resource.  I still would like to see them on a 
LibreOffice site instead of an OOo one.

As for the Language Support, we should have the language and help packs 
for all the common languages that are taught in schools or in use in the 
larger communities.  Marc states, I think, that he taught French to a 
school population that had 50% or more students that spoke Portuguese.  
Here they have Spanish, German, Italian, etc..  Hebrew is a community 
the is not supported be most office suites, as far as I have been told.

I agree that having a English/Spanish/French .iso would be great, 
whenever it happens.  We should use the wiki method of having a 
navigation selection EN, FR, ES somewhere so the user can switch 
language at the page level.

Are we going to have a 3.3.x site and a 3.4.x site since both are part 
of LibreOffice's site?  There was also an idea floating on the lists 
about having a DVD with both lines so the user can choose which one they 
want to use.  I would not mind seeing one.  There just have to be some 
reduction in the Extra's page to make both install groups fit on one DVD.

If all he/they want to do is have a distribution DVD, not a web site, 
they can make it whatever way he/they wish.  It would be nice to see all 
of the distribution DVDs using a similar format, but each localized 
group most likely have their own ideas on what should be included and 
not.  We do not have a developer's page, like the LibreOffice-Box 
version has.  An India version may want many things different than 
anyone else would.  Each culture have their own style and emphasis on 
what would be best for their users.
