Depends on how long it takes to update the cvstree, I'm still in progress of updating...man this is a REAL HUGE baby :)
I am at the moment installing GNU/Linux on the same disk as AmigaOS4... Could you please write the URL for the sources, as I didn't get it the other day.
Yep no problem: http://84.234.219.218/openoffice/

Sounds good to me. However before I investigate the code I would like to have first a fully working self-build OO suite on my Linux box, just to be sure that everything is correct and in place. Hopefully the compile run does not take years to complete :)
IIRC did I read some place that it would take a bit more than a day... depending on how fast the system is :-o
Well its a P3-550 with 512MB RAM...if this really take that long I will eventually switch to Windows/Cygwin environment, an Athlon XP 3000+ should crack this down much faster IMO :)
Btw: http://tools.openoffice.org seems to be a vital resource for the building process.
very usefull :-D
Yeah it gave me a fairly good start what actually all the directories mean inside the openoffice folder, and there are really plenty of them...i would say to get a list of dependencies we should focus mainly on the dmake makefiles, from what I have read the complete source is used for ALL platforms and only the makefiles are adapted to the target systems. The configure run seems to write down the appropiate files in an output tree, which is then used for compiling.
More details on that when I can finally start the build. Now going to bed.
