Good Morning  Group,

It would seem that most of what was good about OOo was thrown out when Apache Software Foundation (ASF) took over its reissue as an "incubating" project.

I went through this Quickststarter bit when I erroneously installed the RC version and so I had no problem with the actual 3.4.1 Update. However, I had to download the update because the update inside the program didn't work. Hopefully this has has been corrected in the real Update.

Hope, is all I have for AOO, because it looks like its going to be a long journey to a smooth operating program, like I did with the original OOo, but then it was new (a child) and bumps were expected. So far, in my opinion, AOO is "brain damaged" on its way to adulthood, again. I don't know ASF so my faith is tenuous. Volunteer organizations are greatly appreciated, but are also well known for lengthy learning curves and long times in making community decisions.

I've read all I could find at the website, on ASF's procedures, but garnered little actual "to the point" information about how a program gets from incubation (kindergarden) to highschool. There is no step-by-step chart of this procedure, unless I was looking in the wrong places. Teachers often forget that students don't have the basic tools to learn a new technique or lesson. I'm a new student of ASF.

Take Care.

Apache OpenOffice 3.4.1 (incubating) released":
I have tried several times to install OpenOffice on System 7. each
time I get a message to close the QuickStarter, and the installer
terminates, notifying me that the installation is incomplete and the
program has not been modified.
Quit QuickStarter and then install Apache OpenOffice.

To quit QuickStarter go to the system tray (or task manager) and quit
QuickStarter.

This issue keeps popping up. Daft question - why cannot the installer
simply kill the quickstarter process?
