Anyone can set up a PPA. If you are looking for this, maybe this is an opportunity to set up a PPA, and see who wishes to join and help out (assuming others have enough interest in this). Though, I believe that the case for this may be too small to manage effectively. Meaning, you probably will have a hard time finding enough people to want to help on this, to make it worthwhile. Especially since hte future is LibreOffice and not vanilla OOo (at least in Ubuntu). -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss
