Quick heavy use of Koffice 2.0 beta

Mon Jul 06, 2009 3:59 am

Ya know.... the developers went to a lot of trouble to NOT make it very easy to get a workable install of Koffice 2.0 beta.

.mine is less than a week old.

I know, I know, it is called beta because it is not considered ready for public consumption...

I'm an early adopter.....some folks say I should have been adopted OUT!

waaaaayyyyy OUT!

Anyway.... I'm a heavy user of Linux Koffice and did not have a distro that would provide a 2.0 suite, so I hung around and hung around and groused...and finally went off and installed Fedora, but wasn't really happy with that and so decided to do a new distro LXDElite... based on Debian Lenny and between the developer and noodling around have a nice lite distro with 2.0 beta installed.

When, a few months ago, I saw the first screenys of 2.0 I.........WANTED IT.......and now.......I GOT IT!!!

I've reported a bug about it crashing when one tries to "undo set background" dunno if it is me or what, but otherwise.....

I'm LOVIN' IT!!!

If folks don't mind I'll pop in once in a while to report on how things are going.

There is a reason that they call it beta and distributions don't include it yet, you know.
