Subject: [users] openoffice 3.0 ready?
Hi,
I found some downloads of openoffice 3.0 final. Strange. They just can
wait till the official release.

Too bad the OOo 3.0 "final" is in German.
By-the-By, if you have FireFox browser and the "translator 1.0.4.4" add-on,
you
can get the add-on to open a new tab/window with the English translation.
I have the translator add-on to read some of the Europe native web sites,
news articles
and news papers, when there is something in them that I want to see.
OpenOffice.org
news, MS court action reported in Europian news feeds, and things like that.
German, Spanish, French, Italian, Portuguese, and Chinses Simplified to
English;
Plus betas of Arabic, Japanese, and Korean to English. There is English to
some of
those listed languages as well.
I do not think Microsoft has that type of add-on available for their
browser.
That is what's great about the opensource community. So many languages
spoken, so there are translator options created to help. MS does not do
that.
Maybe one day OpenOffice.org will have an option to easly translate your
document
from one language to another. There may be one now, but I do not remember
what that add-on option was or if it works with 3.0 RC or final versions.
