Re: [libreoffice-users] automatic updates?

Actually, I use OSX. I assumed it was similar across all platforms. I assume
the autoupdate for firefox works on windows, linux and osx. but whatever, I
don't really know anything. All I'm saying is I hope LO goes mainstream and
takes down microsoft, which I'd love to see. Also, I wasn't even thinking
about a corporate environment where the root would do the updating not the
user. Good point. I was just thinking on a single user/single system basis.
