I was wondering if you knew anything about StarOffice version 5 becoming available for FreeBSD. Have they distanced themselves from us due to their agreements with Caldera ?? Perhaps we could mount a campaign ?? --_=_=_=IMA.BOUNDARY.EXLEXE138764=_=_=_ Content-Type: message/rfc822; name="I want StarOffice 5 for my FreeBSD. I'm running StarOffice 3.1 now..."

I'm running StarOffice 3.1 now... I am a recent FreeBSD evangelist. I used Unix many years ago and I always LOVED it. I am a hardware techie, programmer, system admin by profession. I recently installed FreeBSD 2.2.7 on an old AMD-486DX-66 and it runs GREAT. X11 is a little slow, but not as painful as trying to run Win95 on a 486 !!! I was surprised to see StarOffice as a port. So I installed it and put my resume into a document with StarWriter 3.1. I had LESS TROUBLE than with Microsux' Word, or Lotus' Word Blo. They have WAY TOO MANY BUGS !!! So I thought to check the web and see what your latest version is. It's 5. Great. I want it for FreeBSD, and I PAY license fees. I support people offering quality software at affordable prices. Please tell me you have version 5 for FreeBSD. Please, please, please... --_=_=_=IMA.BOUNDARY.EXLEXE138764=_=_=_-- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
