I use OOo a lot, but i find it much harder to work with than

FrameMaker seems rather limited in offering language support.
Icelandic hyphenation rules are basically:
1. Between compound words (auto-matic)
2. Before a vowel.
But both rules are subjects to exceptions, but I think that all in all
Icelandic hyphenation rules are rather simple.
My question is:
I think you must all be hinting that the final EDD will be rock solid!

Hi all FMs on Solaris etc.,
I got the news that Solaris has an open source kernel
(http://www.opensolaris.org/os/) upon which the Nexenta Operating
System is built (http://www.gnusolaris.org/gswiki).
Has anyone on the list tried it out with FrameMaker?

he section title or heading (whatever
the name you give it). You can combine elements and tags as needed in
this variable.
For a more detailed answer I would need a more detailed information
from you, but hopefully this is enough help.

Simple answer is to question #1: Yes.
BUT: you need to prepare this carefully. For question #2: Maybe look
