Re: [libreoffice-users] LibreOffice 3.3.3 is ready for download

I do not have any OOo installs, any more, in my archives, but I am 
keeping all the LibreOffice installs for a bit.

Since I deal with handing out DVDs, I want to keep the option of having 
earlier versions, just in case the current version has a bug that messes 
with something that worked with an earlier version.  I will wait till 
3.4.1 before handing out that version, but will use 3.3.x for any 
business or any non computer literate person to use.

3.3.x line for most stable
3.4.x line for cutting edge
           till the last 3.3.x version out late this year and 3.5.x 
coming out in Feb. 2012.

I currently use 3.3.3 for Ubuntu/.deb 64-bit and Windows Vista 32-bit.
