Jack,

Not sure what your reason was for writing to this list, but your=20
message below doesn't sound like a request for help with a real problem.

Applications and computers do not "improve" or "update" without=20
you, the user in command, deciding they need it.

If you're happy with your current versions of AOO, operating=20
system and computer hardware, you are free to just stick with=20
what you have and ignore any "Update available" suggestion.=20
What's the point of blaming others for your own decisions?

Then of course, if you have a specific problem with AOO, which=20
you cannot solve with the built-in Help system, most people on=20
this list will be happy to help.

To me, this mailing list is a much better option than any=20
"online user forums", where one has to dig through millions of=20
posts hoping to find suitable solutions.

So if you want to make the most of this mailing list, how about=20
you post one (or more) specific questions that relate to your=20
specific issues?

Let us know how we can help.
