Root README file in SVN

I've checked in a README file to the root of our SVN tree:

https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/openoffice/README

This should be useful to help orient someone who is browsing our tree.

I could use your help identifying the purpose of the branches.  I
described the ones I know about, but there are several there that I am
not familiar with.

Thanks!

-Rob

Funny you said that.  I was in the process of adding some additional
language to the end of the README.  I'd be interested in your feedback
on that.  I think a disclaimer is appropriate for all of the
directories that can contain unreleased code, including branches. but
also /trunk.

It is helpful, I think, to make sure the distinction between an Apache
release and unvetted code in SVN is clear.

Hi Rob;

Perhaps we should add a legal DISCLAIMER to the branches directory?

I am aware of other projects taking code from there that we may not
be releasing after all (oops).

Maybe add information on the publish.pl and web push.
