Hi Kay, Marcus and all, Somebody found the ribbon more modern than the organisation of the commands in AOO. But he was alone to make this remark. Others seemed more interested by the extensions mechanism, the sidebar, the use of the styles and the portability of the application. I have given an usb key with AOO portable and preconfigurated (templates, cliparts, complete documentation and a set of tested extensions) to each participant. I wonder if the extensions developpement couldn't be a practicable way to begin some collaboration with engineer highschools and universities. After a little investigation in this area it seems they need a clear definition of the goal to can integrate the job in a list of student projects. This is perhaps more easy to do with extensions where you have the double possibility to create a new one or ameliorate an existing one.
