Probably worth noting for the record that if we can get a serious ppt viewer, I'd seriously consider dumping OOo from the liveCD- it takes up so much of the CD, and is so slow to start up, that I'm not sure it makes sense to keep on a GNOME-oriented CD. That would free up a lot more space for translations in general, both by making each translation set smaller and by freeing up space.
