Speaking of which, that's the version I'm waiting on for my
spreadsheets.  Any indication of when?

What about a new name to mark KOffice as a contender for main name
space?  It is not well known as a drop in the Kde ocean, it seems to
me.  I've been thinking of a simple name which would appeal particularly
to the Chinese, whose developers have been joining the OO project in
numbers.  The name I'm thinking would also make sense in the West.

A forum may be something a group of users could undertake.
