My question was again only about preserving important content. wiki.openoffice.org contains things that are important not only for us but also for LibreOffice (*). _If nothing essential is changed there, we don't have to talk about it further._ (*) e.g. the complete documentation for creating extensions is indispensable > The website source is in SVN.

Would that also mean that (if "something" equals "archive") we could keep archive.openoffice.org permanently available? I'm afraid that won't be possible. But how is it technically possible to clone a local copy of the website from SVN? Is that even possible? (btw: my copy of the website (also containing the wiki) has a size of 8.26 GB, but is not complete. The large size is due to the fact that not only html content, but all linked files are included.) > > Years ago, I myself had made a copy of the complete web > page (www.openoffice.org) using www.httrack.com, but that did > not work completely.

This should be done ASAP. Okay, that's a clear statement. Please give me _one week (until 20.06.)_ and I will search everything from http://www.openoffice.org/de/ and write down in the cwiki what is important. greetings, Jörg --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@openoffice.apache.org
