[Open Office] src-packaging ...

Hi there,

	I attach our 'src-pack' shell script. This is (perhaps) interesting
because it splits up the large OO.o source archive into several smaller
pieces, helping at least slightly with download time.

	Is it something that could be used for up-stream OO.o source releases ?
indeed, where do OO.o source releases go ? - do they turn up shortly
after it's tagged ?

	Any other interested people we can CC ? [ not a collab.net mailing list
though ... please ;-].

	For m129 this yields:

156761k -core
 33 100k -lang 
 19 072k -system
 18 094k -binfilter 

	Which I guess takes 70Mb off the archive nearly 1/3rd. Of course, as
(linux) systems in general get more capable, we should be able to split
more stuff out into -system, currently we only put things that are very
well deployed in there.

	Also - I guess if we get the URE separated nicely, we can split that
out too from the 156Mb chunk in future, also I guess the -lang package
is set to grow & grow inexorably :-)

	Anyhow, what do you think ?

	Regards,

		Michael.
