Hello,
What exactly is the situation with regard to openoffice going
into debian sid? I ask because OpenOffice 641C seems quite robust
now (I've been doing some statistical data analysis in it this
weekend and it works as well as Excel). The only current problem I
see in it is that the new format files are saved down as compressed
with gzip although the extensions don't indicate that which throws
gnome-vfs for a loop. Hopefully OO will fix that some by changing
their headers so that the files don't appear to be created by gzip.
Anyway...it would be great to get it into debian. The current version
loads in 7 secs now with combreloc. Quite nice.
Jack
