Hello L10n Team leaders

The next LO 5.3 release will include a new entry in the applications
help menu, "Get Help Online".

Menu *Help -> Get Help Online*

This entry aims to quick-link the software to a website with a
community-driven contents localized website , such as a forum or askbot,
to be open in the browser. The link will pass the language of your UI
(not the locale!) to the TDF infra hub.

IMPORTANT: this entry does not link to the wikihelp
(help.libreoffice.org), which is accessed by menu *Help -> LibreOffice Help*

We need you to tell us what page do you want this link to open, for your
language.

The Current available languages/website for TDF Askbot are
Arabic (4)
http://ask.libreoffice.org/ar/questions

German (642)
http://ask.libreoffice.org/de/questions

English (16,910)

Please confirm if you want us to link to the askbot in your language or

may not be under TDF infra management.

LibreOffice website, a TDF wiki page or perhaps a fall-back to the
English TDF askbot.

If you don't have an TDF-askbot instance in your language, but think
this is a good time to get one and link LO to it, please let us know.

Hello all,

Just a note on Askbot instance, be aware that it's a little work and you
need to have a moderator. Currently the fallback is me for all
languages, but it's not a good service to let users wait for being
moderated and get an answer. So make sure you have the resources in your
community before asking for an instance. Thanks :slight_smile:
Cheers

Is website to be under a copyleft license (like CC-BY-SA) or other open

I'm not a lawyer.

Can you tell me what site you think to connect to LibreOffice software?
Is it a proprietary/business/corporation website?

What specific proprietary (contents) license do you have in mind?

Kind regards

may I suggest to reevaluate names of these menu entries? When put next
to each other, they seem like pretty much equivalent. I think "Support
forum" would be a more appropriate name for the first one.

I'm too.

It is our forum of a user support http://forumooo.ru/

The forum does not report any specific license. But for keeping of a copyright,
it need to be asked on copying and using of materials that the author posted.
As I understand, that is proprietary license.

OK. The site seems to be an open community forum.

Is there a page where copyright is explicit? I am using google and I
can't find any page where copyright is mentioned.

Thanks

inclusion in the list that redirects from *Help -> Get Help Online*.
