“The new splashscreen for Open Office 2.0″:http://www.openoffice.org/editorial/bwhelan.html has been decided on. It’s very nice. I’ve been using the preview build for 2.0 for months now and it is as good if not better than M$ Office.

Intriguing. I use 1.1, love it despite the slowness, and have been a bit scared about using the preview build with the instant fear “‘preview’ plus really important papers equals scary scary!” But I may now check it out.

Yes, the preview build is actually very stable and has been for sometime — part of OOo’s tendency to release only when the software is very robust. Mozilla is this way too, I think it’s part of this new, less anarchic and more focused approach to f/oss that’s become so popular and effective these days.
