  1. Why is this still labeled daily downloads? Maybe it should be renamed, weekly or whenever we feel like posting it downloads. ;)

  2. I am sorry but think whole site has gone very downhill recently especially forum where too much U.S. politics is discussed and by those not of U.S.! Should just be computer stuff. :x

  3. OpenOffice.org 3.0 is not out yet, the current version is 2.4.1, 3.0 is at RC4, not stable.

    The stable version has been released, just ahead of their official announcement:

    @BritSwedeGuy:

    I’m afraid there is a little confusion regarding OpenOffice application. According to FileHippo.com., OpenOffice.org 3.0.0 is ready for downloading. This is after OpenOffice.org 3.0.0 RC4.

    The file of the finished product (not the RC version) is 127.98 MB.

    Take a look at this link: [filehippo.com]

    Yeah, we’re trying to figure out a name that suits it better now.

    At the time of posting this it was finished, but it just wasn’t announced on their site yet. They’ve officially announced it now though.
