I can't estimate this exactly, but the risk also exists with German OpenOffice CD. For example, we regularly warn about https://www.openoffice.de/ because this is a purely commercial CD with add-ware, about which users complain again and again, because they feel deceived, because they mistakenly believe that openoffice.de is a website of the official OpenOffice project. > Downloading from > http://www.openoffice.org/download/index.html is the best source. > regards, yes, that's right for clarification the following: For www.prooo-box.org I can guarantee 100%, because I personally help there on a voluntary basis. (i am ASF-Committer, id: joesch) The ProOO-Box is also listed in the third party distributions: https://www.openoffice.org/porting/ and a small wish as well: As project members and experts for OpenOffice we should also have the courage to make recommendations. That's what my 2 other links (mediamarkt.de and robbicom.de) were meant in this sense, also because I think it's right to mention those who help us by spreading OpenOffice in a serious way. greetings, Jörg --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@openoffice.apache.org
