One Year Of OpenOffice

no parity writes "Last year on October 13, much of the source to Sun's StarOffice was released as the OpenOffice project. They have set up a birthday page to celebrate what they have achieved in that one year - yes, it prints, spellchecks and has online help. Keep up the good work, guys!" Yep - and my installation still spits up, too. *grin*

  8. A suggestion by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 0, Troll

    What OpenOffice really needs is to drop the proprietary build depends. It currently depends on JDK 1.3.1.

    The harm in this is that free software people aren't going to help because it requires them to use non-free software to compile it. And many people who don't mind using proprietary software are probably not going to be much help.

    OpenOffice really needs to drop the JDK and zip compression depends. What's wrong with using gzip and ?

    Since it's GPL'd, does anyone have a tree setup to take out the proprietary depends?

  12. No linux support by BEHiker57W · · Score: 0, Troll

    If this OpenOffice supports linux, then why
    does each user require his own installation?

    Shouldn't it be possible (at 250 MB+ per user)
    to share some of those files? Or is the OO/SO
    team committed to a world without user identities
    and effective multi-user security? That is, a
    Windoze(tm)-everywhere world?

    It's sort of a stretch saying that Mark Twain published "all those amazingly popular and timeless books," _Pudd'n Head Wilson_, for instance, was Twain's attempt to convince law enforcement agencies that fingerprinting is an effective method of capturing criminals. Anyway, their's only really one of his books that's "amazingly popular" (and relevant) nowadays, _Huck Finn_, which is filled with a bunch of dumb niggers. They're stupider than sand niggers, even.
