Title: OO version for editors (2.0 or 1.1.5)
If we agree that we should all use the same version,
then I would say the question boils down to whether we should use 1.1.5 or
2.0. I'm always in favor of using the latest version as long as it's
stable.

I have been using 1.1.4.
I care about a stable version that I do not need to chase
bugs. If 1.1.5 is stable enough, I see no reason why we should not move to that.

I think we should all use the same version of OO. There
may be no issues with using different versions but using the same version
removes one source of potential problems.
I don't really care if we use 1.1.5 or if we use 2.0. I'm
willing to upgrade to 2.0 if/when the other editors so the same. Its not like
I have to pay for an upgrade license or anything . . .

[ws-rx-editors] OO version for editors (2.0 or 1.1.5)
Hi editors,
I made a detailed pass over the document this
weekend to fix up editorial issues. I tried to limit myself explicitly
to issues I deemed editorial, and will send around a red line doc showing
the diffs so that the editors can agree to the changes before I submit
them.
The point of this mail is that when I tried to do
the diff to send it out right now, I was unable to do so effectively because
I apparently have a newer version of Open Office installed than the rest of
you. OO 2.0 [1] was released in October, and I was curious what the editors
thought about upgrading to the newly released version.
In the meantime, I'm currently installing the
1.1.5 version that Gil mentioned he is using so that I can produce the
aforementioned diff.
This is just a general pulse check: What versions
are editors using now, and what do the editors think about upgrading to the
2.0 version of Open Office?
Cheers,
Steve
