Ximian to Bundle StarOffice 6.0

rainmanjag writes "A Ximian press release is reporting that Ximian will be bundling StarOffice 6.0 for Linux with the packaged version of Ximian Desktop Professional, Red Carpet Express, and Red Carpet CorporateConnect." This means that both Ximian and Mandrakesoft are offering comprehensive software bundles which happen to include StarOffice 6.0, a package which would otherwise cost more by itself than either of the bundles.

  1. Slightly offtopic - missing piece on linux desktop by Ars-Fartsica · · Score: 0, Offtopic
    I think Ximian and the OpenOffice folks have done a great job in bridging the gap between linux and Windows (along with Mozilla.org of course), but for me the missing piece is integration with popular music devices.

    Does anyone know of ongoing projects to unify communications between linux and the popular devices?
