I translating Help for AOO. I found in one line this:
Have a look at <link href="http://www.dmaths.org";>www.dmaths.org</link> for
a set of additional %PRODUCTNAME Math icons and macros.
I looked this site and look what I found there:
"Dmaths will NOT work in Apache-OpenOffice 4.0 presently. Please get and
install the up-to-date version of LibreOffice instead."
This is not good message for AOO.
We had in Serbia simmilar problem with one of the most-frequently-used
extension in Serbian. Thanks for Jörg Schmidt he made version for AOO 4.0,
but we have still some problems here, because old version of this extension
is still visible on AOO Extension site! It is silent message for all: this
is not working on AOO, but here is on our site. What conclusion will create
most of visitors whe they see this? So, I have some propositions:
1) Administrators must have create the rule: extensions on AOO site
"Extension" must declared as appropriate or non-appropriate for AOO4.0.
2) In future we must made restriction for those extensions on our site
3) There is some the most frequently used extensions. What we can do to
ensure that this extension works in AOO 4.0? Can we invited authors of this
extensions to made version for AOO4.0? Can we create some fork, if it is
totaly legal (for example, for extensions where authors of extensions do
not want to make corrections for AOO 4.0 and when licence permit forks?

Regarsd,
Wlada
