Just would like to know when OpenOffice 3.0 will be available for MAC (Mac Intel and Power-PC). The Intel version is available since last Monday, almost on every mirror. If you look at the static page that has been created when the server was bombarded with download requests, they don't reflect the actual situation. If you access the web site (www.openoffice.org) with a Mac and choose I want to download OOo, it will detect your platform and download the MacOS X Aqua version in US English. If you need another language, you have to access the mirrors system (link on the download page) and find the right linguistic version in the stable and then 3.0.0 directories. -- Italo Vignoli tel +39.348.5653829 [EMAIL PROTECTED] skype italovignoli - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

There are some things which might help us further market OOo. 1) how can we also count the downloads from RPM and APT repositories which is where most of our linux users are going to be getting OOo? Maybe we need some sort of mirrors project to pull these stats together for all open-source projects ... Alternatively some distros now ask users to opt into monitoring programs which monitor what software is actually being used and 'call home' the statistics. 2) I might have missed the explanation of Leif's question earlier: are all of the 3 million successful downloads or does the sum also include interrupted attempts? (HTTP is rather lame for large file transfer.) My understanding is that the Bouncer logs record when users are 'handed off' to a mirror. They have no visibility whether the download was completed / interrupted / bookmarked and repeated directly later. 3) How about the torrents? Indeed. All of these factors (and others) mean that the Bouncer figures severely underestimate our total downloads. On the other hand, they are completely objective, and are quite easy to filter for rogue entries.
