Thank you Peter!  This will be very useful.

You write that LibreOffice is the "primary candidate" for an office
suite for Tribblix.  Why did you select LibreOffice over OpenOffice?

Some of the stated goals of the LibreOffice project when they forked 
were to convert all comments from German to English, and to rip out 
all Solaris-specific things.  I would have guessed that OpenOffice 
would be easier to build than LibreOffice.

Anyway, more choice is always good.


Cheers -- Volker
