I have a couple of release candidate copies, one on Gentoo and one on 
Mandriva. I haven't had any major issues with it so far and it seems pretty 
stable. I exported some powerpoint from it and the results back in MS Office 
were perfect - OK it was a simple presentation. I still can't cut and paste 
from Impress chart data - why not?

I think I will upgrade all out desktops to 1.1.5 for now (that can read Oasis) 
and just keep version 2 on a couple of test machines until the confidence 
builds.

All in all......looks good.....I like it.

Kevin.
