I'd like to kick this off with a blog post in the next week or so. So
if anyone sees anything urgently wrong, please speak up now.

This is good! Hopefully I'll finally get to the "Distributor FAQ" I
mentioned a while back this weekend and I'll include a mention of this. Of
course, we'll need lots of feedback on that I'm sure.

+1. BTW - it is possible to use the Apache CMS Bookmarklet and create a patch. I'm willing to submit any CMS related patch someone wishes to contribute.
Send patches to ooo-dev with a subject using a prefix of [RFW - CMS]. Good for any contribution from a non-committer.

Rob,
Hi! This looks so good! I do have some suggestions.
1. ' send a request to the ooo-dev mailing list and we can make a translated version for you. ' takes you to the page of MANY mailing lists. I can see someone getting overwhelmed here. People are not going to scroll too far down that list - maybe a direct link to the page for translations without all of the choices - or - place a quick link button for Translations at the top of the mailing list page?
2. Items 2, 3 and 4 talk about the means for linking the logo - I really like the yellow example below this (including the alt!) - could this be placed above 2,3 and 4 as simply 'Here is a copy/paste link to use. If you do not use this copy/past link and want to personalize it further, these are the rules you must follow: (insert 2,3,4)' I think this would encourage the copy/paste (with the alt for SEO!)- and it offers an easy copy/paste connection for those that are not into coding - but want a quick link.
Also, could the Image link include an alt="Download Apache OpenOffice here" that would help - currently it is <img style="-webkit-user-select:none; "src="http://incubator.apache.org/openoffficeorg/images/get-it-here/en.png" />

Yeah, I think it is an approximation. You still need to look at the staging server or double check your publish.
I think that a true Preview button could be supported by the CMS, but someone would need to write it. There is a build_file.pl script that could be run. This would need a private staging area alongside the committer's private checkout, and it might need other site resources which may be in flux as well. A complex feature for small returns.

Got it. I did indent in the mdtext file and it looked fine in the
preview. But it looks like the preview code will preview indentation
with mdtext with indentation of 2 steps, but the actually page
generation engine requires indentation of 4 spaces. What You See is
Not What You Get.

The three possible download options are subparts of the list item 2.
It should look like this:
Conditions
----------
1. The logo may be resized, so long as the aspect ratio is preserved and
the logo remains legible, but the logo may not be otherwise altered.
2. The logo must directly link to one of:
* The Apache OpenOffice home page
* The download page for Apache OpenOffice, either the main download
page or the detailed download page.
* One of the official Native Language pages at openoffice.org, e.g.,
http://de.openoffice.org, http://it.openoffice.org,
http://fr.openoffice.rg, etc.
3. The logo must not link to a page at any other website other than
openoffice.org.
4. The logo must not link to a specific download file or mirror. This
causes problems with load balancing and fallbacks and may prevent users
from getting the latest version of OpenOffice.
Any use of this logo or any other Apache logo beyond the above requires
explicit permission per the existing trademark policy
I had noted, what the resulting HTML should look like.
Kind regards
