I've been using 1.1.1 all day. That is something I could not do until now.
the stability increased over 100% with this release for me.. on SuSE 7.2 I
might add (though, my own XFree86, my own KDE, my own KOffice, etc)

koffice-1.1.1
It usually someone else other than I who gets in first after a release. However I download this last night and tried it this morning. Its only a minor release but wondered what was to offer, only to find that it crashed immediately in Suse and had problems when started from a terminal. There does not appear to be anythingb that is worth the release and the BIG point is not addressed once again, no export word filters. Kword, mime, abiword; pretty useless. I also decided as I was going to abamndon Suse 7.3 for many reasons, recompiles, sound and other little niggles that I would download the mandrake and Caldera versions. I was introduced by Caldera to linux and gui, also until this year had no thought, even though I had struggles with ltp etc of using anything else. I was actually thinking of putting 3.1.1 beta up again as I know more of Caldera than anything else. What has stopped me was the download of koffice-1.1.1 for Caldera. It is compiled for 2.1; yes I know they have not released rpms for 2.2, but why release it at all, its a minor release and its meant to run on 2.2 ? I am at a loss to follow the thinking at Caldera these days. I would be back onto Caldera if they would only put out up to date releases, or put up files to download so as the user could do that. Mind you that is not to say that any other distro has grabbed me in any substantial way either. Mandrake is the next one to be tested again but I do not like the no /opt and another couple of tricks, gcc 2.96 i.e.. Suse is ok so long as you do it their way and do not fiddle. Just seems that today many are working against each other rather than with some game plan, this release is just confirmation.
