Openoffice update.

[Andres Tello Abrego]

humm...

and when is a new offcial release for ydl?
I'm unable to build the beast of OpenOffice.. not enough horse power or 
disk space... I only have my working machine (ppc) a ibook g3, 640 mhz 
ram..

So, nobody have it precompiled for ppc? Even at the openoffice site the 
last build for ppc is 1.1.13 or something like that :(


Good luck?
Humm..
I don´t need luck I need horse power, anyone with a g5 or something like 
that? I could do the hardwork of the build, but if somebody is so kind 
to provide a more "powerfull" hardware... that would be great! :)
