+1 AOO should work with what is installed, [though there is probably no need to support Java 4 or earlier any more.] Just because Java 5 or 6 is no longer current does not mean it is not being used. In particular, businesses tend to stay on older versions of Java (and OS) until the cost of updating is less than the cost of not updating. > This would prevent many queries on the Forum of why OO doesn't work with an > installed Java. > > > -- > Rory O'Farrell <ofarr...@iol.ie> > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org > For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@openoffice.apache.org > --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@openoffice.apache.org
