Ciao Stefano, hey but the openoffice project is still in pre-alpha AFAIK, so that means is not stable at all huh?. and yes! I have 7.1, and my staroffice doesnt work at all, it freezes as soon as i run the installation script. do you suggest me to get the binaries from Sun website? i was wondernig, how many if you use HTML mail and ASCII mail as a standard? Suggestion: Why in order to answer to a message that comes from the mailing list we have to use the reply all button?, In other mailing list, the majordomo, adds the mail of the mailing list to the Reply-to header to all the mails that are sent, that seems much more practical huh?
