OO has never really progressed passed being a poor copy of MS Office 97. Tieing the new nomenclature to the old product might prove counter productive. I know several users who would avoid it just on that basis alone. A new name with the appropriate PR might prove to be a boon for the product. I do agree that the new name is lacking though. Obviously, no real thought went into choosing a new product name. Unfortunate indeed. -- Jerry ✌ FreeBSD.user@seibercom.net Disclaimer: off-list followups get on-list replies or get ignored.
