Hello All, I have been referred to you to help with a startup issue for newbie volunteers. The site literature makes reference to resources at a website called googlecode.com, which no longer exists. Please read the email below for further details. Do you know of a replacement website for googlecode.com ?

Could you report this to the dev@openoffice.apache.org list? Someone else may already know where to find it. Meanwhile, please proceed using the alternative method described just below the apt-get line, rerun setup.exe and select the listed packages.
