I did a search through all of the resource files in the OOo 1.1.3 source code and I did not find a single Lithuanian entry!
Apparently, Sun added Lithuanian to the list of available languages in the OOo 1.1.3 make files, but they did not add any Lithuanian strings to any of the resource files.
Why you are seeing German is because when the OOo code does not find a string for your language, it displays the default language which is German (the primary language of Sun's OOo developers).

Any chance of getting a torrent going for the download? (probably less stress on your download server and good for me to go on and off on my internet connection ...)
Thanks much for this.
I'm a law student at UBC and use NeoOffice/J for all my office needs.
regds,

What do we need to get this going? Before Ed always set things up and I just helped seed when I was on campus. I'm happy to seed for a while, since I'm home for the holidays on DSL, and I noticed the mirror I chose (planamesa.org) seemed slow.
If all I need to do is generate a .torrent from my Beta download and upload the .torrent, I can do that, too...but don't we need a tracker, too? I don't know much about BT.
Edit: Yeah, we need a tracker to even generate the torrent.
Edit 2: I think I extracted the correct tracker info from Ed's torrent of the OOo 1.1.2 GM. Grab the torrent here and see if it works If not, we'll have to wait for Ed.

Yup, you got the trinity tracker URL correct. I can't connect due to my firewall config here, but I was able to verify that everything is pointing to the tracker just fine and that there's an active seeder.

Also, don't forget that you don't have to download it from a torrent to be a seeder...if you want to help be one of the initial seeders and you've already downloaded the disk image from onen of the mirrors you can fire up your favorite BT client and point to that dimage as the download location and you should automatically become a seeder.
Many times native language projects do their localizations but they don't get incorporated back into the main OpenOffice.org source code. If that is the case, it may be possible to build the translated version once we can find their sources. I looked through it briefly, but I wasn't able to understand too much being a silly American

Thanks! ATM no one seems interested, but as I said, I'll keep seeding.

It's just an alternate URL if for some reason thousands of people grabbing the 9K file hits against your .Mac limit
I certainly hope it doesn't hit the limit The Neo/J screenshots for the wiki (and mentioned on www.neooffice.org, too--thanks again) and the preview image for the OOo screenshot, as well as the updated Neo/J globe image (128x128 version) and header in the wiki are all served from there, too. I'm not safe for /.ing
After running through and updating the wiki, I've been nosing around the web looking for "missing"/out-of-sync things and news now that Beta is here.
A bunch of minor little things I've noticed that can be changed as y'all get a second, or WONTFIXed as appropriate
The new header on www.planamesa.com/neojava seems to have many compression artifacts, especially noticeable around the "Neo/J" text. These weren't present in the version Dan sent me, and indeed, the planamesa file is 12K compared to 32K in the version I had. If it's not too much of a strain on the bandwidth, the 32K version looks much better
VersionTracker and MacUpdate still have some outdated/missing info in their listings.
Since Patrick has pretty much excised the "this is a prototype for software developers only" text from all of planamesa/neojava, should the descriptive text at VT and MU be updated, or does that need to hold off until 1.1 Final/GM? (Also, one of the big features of Beta is Aqua menus, yet the text says "no Aquafication going on in Neo/J" )
VT has the old RAM reqs (256 MB), MU doesn't list any RAM reqs.
MU has the old ship for the app image; VT has no such image (a Mac OS 9 document!). Let me know what size/format each place needs and I'll do those based on the ship/globe icon (like I did for trinity news stories).
MU's screenshot (from planamesa/neojava) is from the 0.x series (in-document menus); VT has no screenshot.
VT folks tend to like a "what's new" list
Anyway, feel free to WONTFIX these or delegate if needed...after you celebrate the past four months of work and the past two weeks of crazy work! Alf mabruk wa alf shukr! [1000 congratulations and 1000 thanks!]

Well, news of the release hasn't hit major DDoS-capable sites like macslash and macnn so I wouldn't give up all hope...

Heh. Apparently we got trumped by Adobe releasing a version of Acrobat Reader that doesn't completely suck and is a slight improvement from 6.x (although the Camino boards are afire that the new PDF reader plugin only works with Safari and disables Schubert's in non-Safari browsers...). Anyway.
Now that we are Beta, I'm going to post to dev@wp.openoffice.org to let the long-suffering Mac folks on there know we have a solution that reads their WP and WP-Mac documents....

I just opened the PSD file using Preview and saved it as JPEG. That is probably the cause of the compression. I have resaved the JPEG using "best" quality instead of "medium" quality and pushed it to the website.

Ah, I see. Dan had sent me a JPEG as a preview, and I assumed he had sent you the same one along with the PSD. New version looks great!

I'll put something together for you (I assume only you can submit those changes to MU and VT)--but I think in the morning when I know I can think clearly It's been a long day of Christmas shopping + arrival of Beta

Thanks much. I'm using the torrent you posted and will try to seed it whenever I'm online. I wonder if it's possible to have your link on the download page so people know they can use the torrent...might markedly lessen the load on the main servers especially for the major releases.
First of all: Thanks for your great work. I really am very happy to eventually have an alternative to Office. Thanks and thanks again.
Here is my suggestion for the final:
Would it be very hard to rearrange the menu entries now that the whole menubar is a real mac menubar? My primary concern ist that the prefs aren't in the app menu and the there are two "quit" entries. One in the app menu and one in the file menu. The one in the file menu could be eliminated.
Other than that it's some rea great app. Thanks again!
