There's a small bit of information on how to use the CMS bookmarklet to do this from here: http://openoffice.apache.org/website-local.html#using-the-apache-cms-bookmarklet-simpler-method This has been used very successfully in the past by non-committers for smaller changes (like a single page change.) Notifications come to "dev" where they can be reviewed and committed. Further down, there is more information for non-committers. This takes you the Developer FAQ and goes into svn and patch submission, etc. I would think this would be preferable for larger edits. -- -------------------------------------------- MzK "Though no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending." -- Carl Bard --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@openoffice.apache.org
