Are you saying projects like the NA-DVD might have a "modified" version 
of LO hiding something that should not be there?  Yes, going to the main 
download site should be the default, but having local/regional projects 
where you can get LO is important.  I think if you state that the only 
place for users to get LO is from the download site, then there might be 
some problems with distribution CDs/DVDs that are also listed on the 
download pages.  If you hand out these media to people, but they are 
told that the only place that it is safe to get the packages is from the 
official download web site, then there might not be any trust in the 
localized projects.  Hopefully this is not what you are saying.

Since I do not know how to create a md5-hash for my installation files 
on the NA-DVD project web page and physical media, I cannot offer that.
