Description lars.nooden 2007-06-06 10:47:43 UTC
The URL http://sv.openoffice.org/ goes to a redirect, so its entry in the the
list of native language localizations should skip the middleman and go straight
to the destination of the redirect:
  http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Sv.openoffice.org

Lars,
I'd rather not do that, and would prefer to send all listings to the CollabNet pages. At some point it may 
make more sense to in fact skip it and go to the wiki--or the CollabNet pages may in fact become a lot 
easier to manage (that's in the works, I've been told).  But for now, for the sake of an economy of links, 
let's just stick with the redirect. FWIW, other projects are doing the same thing--but they are not even 
using the wiki. The loss is that we don't know what's going on.

Ok.  It's a work-around anyway.

The reason for this URL is because of the problems caused when CollabNet injects
its own code into the web pages.  I must finally admit that these Content
Management Systems or whatever they are called probably won't go away regardless
of how poor or monolithic.  However, much blood, sweat and tears could be
avoided in accomplishing the exact same result (e.g. standard menus, footers,
headers) using server side includes.  

I'm fine with CVS or SVN, in fact that's an advantage.  Having a program inject
unwanted HTML is a disadvantage.
