[ubuntu-studio-users] Libre Office for Ubuntu Studio

[leo]

I totally LOVE Ubu Studio 13.04; am using 64 bit.
What is the ubuntu-studio-devel mail list? Since the forums are down until the hackers invasion problem is solved,
and I am a slow typer, mailing lists and forums are my best choice. There are a multitude of IRC's (I avoid because of my lacking typing skills), wikis, advice related sites, etc.,
out there and I am still unaware of the Linux world suggested prorocols!
Cheers, Leo

That I consider an excellent decision! One of the greatest pros for
Linux is that it does not paternalize the user with only one choice for
the DE. Maybe XFCE could remain the recommended default but to point the
users to the fact, that they can always choose any other available
surface is absolutely wise.
