[SLUG] Open Office availability

[Adam Bogacki <adam@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Have a look at www.openoffice.org ... If you follow the appropriate 
links you will find
that recent (approved) builds are available from a number of retailers 
in the northern
hemisphere *AT COST* . I dealt with SMB (I think it is) in the UK who 
sent me a copy of Build 641b. The latest is 641c and the global 
developer community has voted that the next release
will be designated 1.0 ...

One thing they are going for is increased language internationalisation
and a group of OpenOffice enthusiasts in Hungary a week or two ago 
marshalled 2-300 language and IT people at (I think) Budapest University 
to almost completely translate OpenOffice into Hungarian *in three 
days*. As the website noted, it shows you what can be done if the will 
is there.

Cheers,

Adam Bogacki.

P.S. I would recommend getting hold of a copy while this window of 
opportunity exists. I have
read elsewhere that SUN plans to evolve to more commercial model in the 
near future.
