ROFL - Rot Off Foul Luser ... Actually, there was a reason for just this praise at just this moment. I use OpenOffice.org 1.0 with much pleasure, have done for a couple of years, since build 631. However, OOo also has a groupware project that keeps on promising different groupware solutions, has done so for months and months and nothing ever comes of it. Last time it was Mozilla, now it's something else. I'd introduced OOgw's Gary to Horde's Chuck just before Christmas and felt I'd done a good deed, left them to "find each other." But they never did. Just before I posted to this list, OOogw's Gary came up with yet another new suggestion for groupware, I exploded on the list (haven't dared go back) and said that they could "rot op" (Dutch invective) or "dra dit pepper'n gror" (East Norwegian invective) and I wasn't leaving Evo for anything, anyway. Then I started asking myself why I liked Evo so much, found out that since 1.0.0 it had never actually ruined any of my data, nothing, and decided to let the list know :-) Evo's got its faults, goodness knows. But at least it's not vaporware and it doesn't run under Windows. If someone had paid me a quid for every time I've had to mop up and start again from scratch (all mail folders blown away, lost documents, restart workstation etc etc) with Windows mailers of all sorts, I'd have been rich long ago. With that nice con artist wearing his owl glasses looking over my shoulder and telling all like me just to wait for the next version, which would solve all our problems. He's still telling them, they all believe him. So that's why.
