Hi,

I have just uploaded StarOffice Beta 3 to sunsite. It is currently in
/pub/Linux/Incoming and will be moved to /pub/Linux/apps/staroffice.
Please see the file README.StarOffice.beta3 for more information.

(To the uninitiated: StarOffice is a complete office productivity suite
consisting of a word processor, a spreadsheet with some database
capabilities, a drawing and presentation program, an imaging tool, a
charting tool and a formula editor.)
