Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: installation of LO35; removal oy LO33 required?

Hi :)
The 3.5.3 seems a lot more stable than the 3.5.2!  Far, far fewer people writing in about it!!  
Hopefully the 3.5.4 will be even better.  It's probably still best to stick with the 3.4.6 where 
you need something reliable but the 3.5.3 is definitely worth taking for a test-drive if you can.  

@ Pedro, i think the bias mentioned was Ubuntu rather then other Gnu&Linux (or possibly Bsd) 
distros rather than Windows! Lol.  Good to see an elegant (and probably deliberate) 
misunderstanding there! :)  

I have a feeling that people often say Ubuntu when they are really using one of the "clones" or 
Mint or others in the same family.  Like i often say Firefox when i am really using Seamonkey which 
uses the Firefox engine (gecko i think) and is produced by the same people.  It just makes it 
easier to get to an answer quicker sometimes.  

Regards from
Tom :)

You don't have to change. You can install version 3.5.3 in parallel
(http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Installing_in_parallel) or use the
portable version (http://www.libreoffice.org/download/portable/)

Does this exist?

I would say 3.4.6 is closer (with less features, of course :) )

It's not a matter of bias. Ubuntu contributes with developers to the
project. Microsoft surprisingly doesn't :)

Since there are new options in the menus and dialogs, the language packs and
help files need to reflect this.

Using a language pack from a previous version will probably leave you with a
mixed language interface... The previous help files can be used but they
will not describe the added features...
