[ubuntu-uk] OpenOffice 3.0 repositories for Hardy
Hi folks, As OpenOffice.org has been released, I wondered if anyone knew of any repositories where it can be downloaded from? I'd rather use a repository (which I would presume would offer updates occasionally) than just install the .deb packages off the OpenOffice web site manually. I just wondered if anyone knew of a good repository? Does anyone know too if OpenOffice 3.0 will be included in Intrepid when it's released?

Hi Dave, Explain to me how this is going to work. Do we have a corner in a much larger exhibition? Is there going to be enough Linux stuff to justify a trip from the South West? Sean -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/

Sean Hi Sean, The actual event at Olympia is split between Mac expo and Linux expo. The Linux expo is then further split between commercial and organisations (.org village [0]), normally I would expect us to be in the .org village - however I did speak with Canonical's Marketting director - and we may well end up sharing Canonical's stand if it is more favourable for us. I'll be travelling from Devon, probably by train - so if you want to travel together, give me a nod.

Dave, Forgive me for being a complete idiot but could you confirm I've added my name correctly? Unfortunately, I can only do the Saturday. Regards Bruce On Mon, Oct 20, 2008 at 3:10 PM, Dave Walker [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi Chaps, Just another reminder about *THE* event to be at this year. It's running from this Thursday until Saturday. This is basically an event where we have a chance to show of Linux, and Ubuntu. It is also a great chance to meet other like minded people. It didn't happen last year, but the year before was a great success[0]. It would be really good to make this one even better. The venue is shared with the Mac Expo, so it's a fantastic opportunity to show off Ubuntu to non-linux users, who would unlikely come to a dedicated Linux expo. Canonical have today confirmed that they will be there, and help us (the LoCo), where possible. So I'm asking for more volunteers to help man the stand, or if you don't fancy doing that just come along to show your support for Linux and Ubuntu in general (make sure you wear your coveted Ubuntu geekware! :) ). If you want to help out, add your name to the wiki page [1]. I would also think it would be a good idea if you apply for tickets[2] aswell, tickets are free if pre-booked (£12 on the door).

[ubuntu-uk] Intrepid Themes
Hi there, Does anyone know what's going on with the look of Intrepid? I did think that it was supposed to come with a new theme, but from what I've seen so far it seems to be rather similar to Hardy. At one point there was a bizarre slightly unreadable dark theme but that seems to have disappeared... Any info anyone?
