It is fine to have multiple office installations, the point is that I don't want to share the base layer anymore and keep it separately. No URE, no base layer, everything consolidated. Our friends from LO have reworked this already, but they kept the URE. I am tending to go one step further and remove the URE layer in the office as well. I think it was one of the first action Stephan did for LO ;-) He had the advantage that he knew exactly what to do because he had to integrate it on advice of his former manager. Juergen
