Would there be any interest in starting a AOO Group on Launchpad
I was about to commit the AOO code to a PPA for myself, but as Drew
mentioned, it might be a lot more fun if we started a little team to set up
a repo for Ubuntu for the new RC. Would you like to play? I am good at
thrashing things out (even reading the fine manual at times) but I have
never set up a PPA before. I have come as far as making a "test PPA" but I
haven't added any files.
Apparently Launchpad makes its own debs, so that is not necessary.

I'm arist at launchpad.
Also, I'll be at UDS next week, and I can poke around and see what I can
learn and what help we can get.

I think that already have a good group for this. I will start set up a
debian mirror for AOO in my userspace. In other hand, i am returning
my studies of AOO build and debian packaging specifically.
But i know that we will stay tunned.

Humm... i started to study the debian package system, and isn't easy
to do this. Automated system for packaging can do it, since you start
some procedures for this.
Anyway, IMHO, we need more work in the code to do regular packages
under debian/ubuntu.

I took the liberty to add myself. I am interested in making AOO
available on Ubuntu but have no experience with PPA (yet).
