Hi :) At the moment we recommend a 3rd party called "Portable Apps" but it seems they are sometimes quite slow about getting the new versions of LibreOffice onto their systems. "WinPenPack" seem to do the job a LOT faster and they cover every release but we don't even mention them. http://sourceforge.net/projects/winpenpack/files/X-LibreOffice/releases/
Could we have them listed as an alternative to "Portable Apps"? I'm not talking about a radical redesign. Just adding a list, somewhere near the bottom of the page, of links to other companies that do the same thing.
