All,
OpenOffice.org 2.0.2 is available today. It is ready now in English;
check with the Native Language projects for other languages. The release
is recommended for everyone. It contains some nifty new features, fixes
many small bugs and resolves numerous issues. For instance, spellcheck
dictionaries are now directly integrated into OpenOffice.org and are
immediately available after installation; there is no need for extra
downloads. The community have also added import filters for Quattro Pro
6 and Microsoft Word 2. As well, other import filters have been
improved, so that documents created by other applications can be edited
in OpenOffice.org more seamlessly. Continuing with the the push to
enhance OpenOffice.org's business functionality, it is now easier to use
mail merge. As well, integration with the KDE address book is now possible.
The appearance of the application has also been enhanced, and for Linux
users, there are new icon sets for KDE and GNOME. The result of this and
the other improvements is not just a prettier OpenOffice.org but a
friendlier and more capable suite.
And it's free.

I don't find clear information on any of the links about the
advisability of installing 2.0.2 when 2.0.1 is already installed on the
computer. Does one simply run install and install over the previous
installation, or should one remove 2.0.1 before running the installation
file. Thanks
