For 1., assuming you already signed the JCA, just submit those patches to one ooo-build person (e.g. me, or send it to openoffice@lists.ximian.com). All patches are taken from there, shared by Debian, Novell/SUSE and some "small" ones) For 2., I just need a GSI. That can just be put into ooo-build/src (names right, see the existing ones) and it'll automatically be merged. For 3., see 1. Assuming they don't "break" other languages. Just send them and we'll look > We want to set-up CVS code repository for users > to be able to checkout it and build Debian Hebrew OpenOffice.org > >from the sources. Well, assuiming there's a CVS repos I can take patches from there if wanted. Otherwise, there's ooo-build (currently using CVS, sometime in the future moving to svn) which contains patches and some of build scripts to add extra stuff (see e.g. the extras_<lang>.tar.gz thing). If you need modification of the debian/ directory, that's in a VCS, too (on arch.debian.org, using bazaar) > How can we set-up Hebrew OOo source repository for Debian ? Well, as said above, you can either send it to me or ooo-build directly. Or participate directly in Debian OOo packaging / ooo-build for hebrew stuff so you can commit yourself. (You == you or someone in your team familiar with Debian, but of course that can be learned) I am happy to help people in either way. Gr�gards, Ren�- .''`.
