 <p class="Header"><a name="mission"></a>Mission Statement</p>
 <p>The Sets category of the Distribution sub-project exists to provide a space
   for community members to gather customized files & installations. All members
   of OpenOffice.org are encouraged to create customized installations. Although
   there will be standard customizations, there will be no limit as to how many
   we can create. The project will aim to provide scripts to create the customized
   downloads.</p>
 <p class="Header"><a name="explanation"></a>Explanation</p>
 <p>Customized downloads will also be known as sets. The 3 standard sets will
   be: Minimum, Express, Maximum. They will be abbreviated as: Min, E, Max. In
   the file list @ the bottom of the screen, you should be able to see file names
   that start with: OOoMin, OOoE, OOoMax. All 3 sets have the advantage of being
   compressed with bz2, which means shorter downloads, than the regular install
   binaries.</p>
 <p>In the following table, you should be able to find a description of what is & is
   not in each of the 3 sets, as well as the benefits. We try to make it as easy
   as possible for you to decide which is best for you.</p>

       galleries will be empty. There are no templates, no images, no sound files,
       no help files & no filters. This is ideal for people who wish to create
       a new customization, starting with only the base system. This has been
       compressed with bz2, which means a shorter download.</td>

       sound files, & help files. There are no filters. This is ideal for most
       people who aren't sure what they need, & will be only working on OOo documents.

     <td>OOoMax</td>
     <td>OOo Maximum</td>
     <td>This has all the features & benefits that a standard OOo download could
       contain. It is better than a standard download, because it is easier to
       install. You just have to unpack it, & run the regular binary called "soffice".

 To aid you in your decision making, we offer the following information as a reference
 for how big the regular downloads are for installing. In other words, these are
 the approxiamate file sizes that you would normally
 need to download.<br>
 Windows: approx. 60 MB<br>
 Linux: approx. 74 MB<br>
 Solaris (S): approx. 81 MB
 <p class="Header"><a name="participate"></a>How to Participate</p>
 <p>First, subscribe to our developers list by going <a href="/servlets/ProjectMailingListList">here</a>,
   and clicking "Subscribe" under the first list mentioned.</p>
 <p>Next, please scan the archive of our discuss list to catch up on what's been
   discussed so far, by going <a href="/servlets/SummarizeList?listName=dev">here</a>.</p>
 <p>Then, you might consider introducing yourself, letting us know how you found
   out about the project, what your interest is, and anything else you care to
   share.</p>
 <p>The tools used to create the sets are the environment package & the script
   package. For the most part, the environment package is complete, & there probably
   won't be anymore development with it. It consists of directories, documentation,
   a few misc. scripts & configuration files for customizing OOo installs. The
   script is supposed to be downloaded & unpacked in the main environment directory.
   The environment & the script were deliberately kept in seperate packages. This
   done so that when the script is upgraded, the directories wouldn't have to
   be emptied out of the customized files just for the sake of packaging the tools.
   The environment package also includes a couple of autoconf files that are necessary
   for executing the script. To know which script is required for which environment,
   you just have to look @ the first number of the version. @ the time of writing,
   the environment package is 1.0, & the script is 1.5. Therefore the script will
   work with the environment, because they both start with 1.*. Even though the
   second number is 0 & 5, they should still compatible. There will be better
   documentation sometime later.</p>
