Hi Tim, Jeff, all

I think Jeff was more focused on moving the NA-Comm-DVD to the
silverstripe server then working directly on the English version of the
LibreOffice-Box.

Absolutely agree.

We can offer a starting place, but there is much that will need creating
from scratch - particularly in the area of templates and add-ons
(extras).

This is where there will be a large divergence, IMO, as the
LibreOffice-box DVD comes at this from a somewhat different perspective
then what we are doing with the NA-Comm-DVD. 

Which is precisely what I would like us to look at and make some plans
for and then to open up to the other English speaking communities.

Thanks,

Drew
