Obviously there is no point contacting 8daysaweek, because their home page makes it clear. Tutorials for OpenOffice is now being worked on, but there is a lot of material to be updated, so don't expect to see immediate changes. This site also handles a number of support questions every day. I am awaiting a reply from OpenOfficeSchool. It is a shame that the ecosystem that surrounded the original OpenOffice.org project appears to be fading away. I have done some fairly thorough checking and there does not seem to be any new English sites coming on-line.

As far as I'm concerned, if the links are still working, regardless of content, I see no reason to delete them. They may eventually catch up to 4.0. -- - MzK When in doubt, cop an attitude. -- Cat laws
