OpenOffice is open source software created and maintained by volunteers under the auspices of the Apache Software Foundation. Therefore there is not a person that you can send questions to. There is nothing wrong with it, it is simply proceeding under the default autocorrect options. These options can be changed by the user. In Writer go to Tools->autocorrect options and set the options you want on the different tabs.

Re: Downloading problems with some Browsers
Hi Rory, It might help to know which version he was downloading and also which sourceforge mirror. You could then compare the length that google reported vs. the size of the same file from http://www.apache.org/dist/openoffice/4.0.1/binaries - don't reference that in the forum - it is there to help.

Re: addition of new languages to a release...was [RELEASE]: proposal for our next release AOO 4.1
Kay Schenk wrote: Is it any benefit to just release language packs for the new languages since 4.0 as opposed to a full version IN a language -- assuming we want to get these out sooner than the next major release date? No benefit. The process would be the same. And breaking the symmetry (released in language XX = full version available in language XX = language pack available for XX) would bring complications in: 1) Updates. A full version in, say, German will show an update notification when a new version is available in German. With a language pack the user would be notified when a new English version is available, and this would bring confusion. 2) Download scripts. The tables we generate in other.html display full versions and language packs assuming that there is symmetry between the two. So the discussion is whether to release additional languages or not (of course, if we have volunteers for it). But releasing language packs only would not be a simplification.

Re: Heightlights 2013?
Hi, Some numbers for the forum (thanks also to Rory who monitored the users activity for several weeks), take what you want (it applies to English forum only): - more than 100 postings per day (by comparison, the users ML is moribund) - 20-25 new topics per day - 20-25 new Users per day - almost 60,000 accounts (if we remove the spam accounts, else it makes more than 62,250) - New traffic record: more than 300 users online (NB: due to phpBB misconfiguration - IP identification - this figure is no longer recorded) Vietnamese forum was reopened but not sure it's worth mentioning since we may close it soon (no activity except spam attempts). Should we mention that the sidebar has been implemented afterward in LibO? (meaning that AOO also gives important improvements to the ecosystem).
