Does this mean that libreoffice is going to replace OOo in the tree?
Looks like it. It has already replaced it on all my computers.
Gentoo's OpenOffice has included the go-oo patches for a long time
anyway, which were the big thing changed about LibreOffice (those
patches included in mainline), and using the two I can honestly say
there's really no difference as far as I can tell, aside from the
splash screen. Somebody posted about some Sun templates a while
back... maybe something proprietary like that is changed, but
OpenTemplate.org is meant to replace those anyway.
I would say switch to LibreOffice and don't look back. :)
OK. I just wanted to make sure I was reading that right. I guess
Openoffice is a thing of the past now.
Question, is libreoffice available on winders too? I need to put that
on my bro's rig to if it is. My bro still uses winders. I been waiting
on him to get up some cash to build a new rig with Gentoo on it. ;-)
