Is this US only? I can't find it on amazon.it: searching "Office" reveals, buried after many results, an old copy of StarOffice and an old OpenOffice manual+DVD. Searching "OpenOffice" only shows the latter. > If we have a contact at Amazon we might want to go through them to > make some small changes to the product listing.

Is there anything we can do to have them offer the official package immediately? Would signing the installer be enough, or there are other problems? (I know that signing the installer would require a lot of discussion, but if we are aware of other problems it would be good to know all of them). Regards, Andrea.
