Re: [us-marketing] English version of German DVD site [heavily modified] will soon be online

My whole DVD of folders and files is now online, but most of the Install 
Folders are still uploading.

So if you go to the link off of my Lungstrom.com domain, you will see my 
work, so far.

The Extras and Artwork links are just at its beginning stages.  Much of 
the others are much more beyond that stage, but needs to be worked on.  
But you can get the gist of the way I am heading towards with this DVD.

Do not know anything about "SilverStripe, except seen the name in the 
source code of the web pages.

Apparently the Writer docs that were on the Wiki site was removed for 
some reason about being "too old" or such and I was promised that they 
would be back there soon.  I downloaded these and exported them to PDF.  
Then I list both of these formats for the LibreOffice Writer Guide 
Chapters.  I have the "Getting Started Guide" full "book" and individual 
chapters listed, then after those and some text explaining "why", I 
listed the OOo guides for 3.x that LibreOffice do not have.  I only 
listed those with PDF files, since I/we do not need to mess with the 
.odt ones at this time.

I most definitely want the Spanish and French documents, templates, 
etc., for the DVD.  I could make use of the translation toolbar of 
Google again and do some French and Spanish "subtitles" in the web pages 
directing to pages with those languages to help navigate through the 
process, as the English pages are used for.

Could never get those two working, since I deal with blind and other 
impaired individuals that would really like to use a computer better 
with their disabilities.  But I could not get it working for OOo 3.x, 
and gave up on those two.

I have the 3.3.0_2 snapshot of 2-13-2011 on my computer as folders and 
files copied from the DVD I burned from the ISO file.  It is easier to 
use some of the folders from that than to try to rebuild the folders 
myself.  The "theme", "pic", and "jre" folders are copied to the main 
folder of my DVD folders.  I just edited the header section of the web 
page[s] I use as template[s] to refer to these folders instead of them 
buried within other folders on the German DVD.

When the final version for the installs are out for 3.3.1, I will need 
to download them into the proper folders and then update the links in 
the install page to point to ....3.3.1..... instead of .....3.3.0.....  
That does not take too much effort.  I will do the same for any 
new/updated files that have a different file name.  For the .odt file 
for the documents, I will also export them to .pdf files.  I know a lot 
of people who prefer to read through .pdf files instead of editable 
files like .odt is.

Right now, the North American DVD is English, French, and Spanish 
[Mexican Spanish].  I want to stick with these for now.  Later we can 
add the other "top-10" or so languages that might be used in this area 
for the "English as a second language" users in the college 
communities.  English, French, Spanish, then add German, Italian, 
Russian, maybe some Asian and Arabic ones.
