Probably also worth pointing out that Novell has, and continues to contribute, significantly to OOo: http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/DomainDeveloper http://go-oo.org/about/ The modified OOo builds on Debian/Suse/OpenSUSE/DroplineGNOME/Frugalware/Gentoo/Ubuntu/PLD/Mandriva/Ark/RPath/Pardus/ QiLinux and others are based on Ximian/Novell (now ooo-build, but still referred to as ximian on the lists). I'm sure that someone from Novell or Sun will wander along and correct me if I'm wrong. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
