Just as a FYI, installed Kubuntu 7.1 recently on a couple of machines. The postgresql sdbc driver is installed by default under these distributions - Base isn't :-( but when you install Base it pulls it right in.

That's pretty neat althought should we document the distro way of doing things or the OOo way my suggestion is just do both add special notes to the default installation.
Well I suppose that depends on how you define OOo?

Another case of perspective I suppose - on any given day at OOoForum.org one fields questions about, comments on or has chit-chat with folks using OOo ( OpenOffice.org, GO-OO [Windows, which is relatively a new event - but the heavy Calc users seem to like it], Linux distros [GO-OO I believe], NeoOffice [a few anyway], and lately a lot of StarOffice8 [Google], with a few Lotus Symphony users thrown in for fun ), so when you use OOo - well, I tend to apply a fairly broad definition to that. Did I mention that three is a budget repackager, Comsi, now selling at Walmart, Target and Frys on line ( to name only a few) - plain vanilla build, with a Contact Manager and a new name, AFAIK, I am betting we get some of them soon.

Yes, like I said, document both but I would put it as a note, they do that with bash on linux and bash on OSX. Sutile notes but the main content should be OOo specific (IMO).


So sure on these mailing lists and on 'the wiki' it should be OpenOffice.org as the baseline, and all else a 'special' case perhaps. On the other hand, if OpenOffice.org wants to represent the "community of users", well that is broader then just the users of OpenOffice.org downloaded from this website, IMHO.

I think the OOo wiki should represent the product more than the community of users otherwise we could add content of the mailing list which most of the time is not. Just like the helpfiles.
