Re: openoffice.org in Sid

["Kevin.Hendricks" <kevin.hendricks@sympatico.ca>]

Hi,

Actually, I can make an OOo 1.1 RC5 ppc Linux available for Debian 
users if someone wants one.  I was hoping to wait until it becomes OOo 
1.1 final and then release it to the YDL mirrors, but if someone has 
some disk space I can sftp/ftp it to, I would be happy to post RC5 for 
Debian ppc Linux users by uploading it tonight so that it is ready by 
tomorrow.

Kevin
