Dammit! Thanks, Benjamin. I wasn’t aware that they’d started doing that. What a
bunch of slime buckets. SourceForge is quoted as responding: “At this time, we
don’t do that without approval.” Rght. It’s okay now. Sheesh!

The link from the OpenOffice site points to SourceForge, so perhaps it's
better to say only from www.openoffice.org, to avoid confusion.

Download it from SourceForge, and ONLY from sourceforge. Don’t click on any
“Download” buttons; your download will begin automatically. When the d/l is
