OpenOffice Portable DEV300m51 Dev test 2 (unoffical and unstable)Submitted by jnw222 on June 23, 2009 - 9:20am
Unofficial Openoffice: OpenOffice.org Portable Download OpenOffice.org DEV300m51 Development Test 2 [95.1MB download / 356.7MB installed] Release Notes: Development Test 1 (2009-06-23): Initial release probably not going to update this often due to size (95MB takes 2 HOURS to upload) but this is just a launcher from the default oo.o portable slightly modified and upgraded to DEV300 code line. btw. DEV300 is like a series of alpha builds that will someday (i think) become oo.o 3.2 ( categories: )

I know your intentions are
I know your intentions are good but please remove your link, we have the official stable version and we don't want the confusion by the 2.

Elsewhere I saw someone had
Elsewhere I saw someone had Mozilla Minefield (FF 3.6 nightly build), and the consensus there was to leave it up, but change the topic to clearly state the difference between that and the official releases of FFP stable and the FF 3.5 official betas... perhaps something similar here?

nope the reason for the
nope the reason for the firefox one is that it was minefield. OpenOffice has no such code name. thus begins the confusion

I think the deal with it
I think the deal with it being Minefield was because it would have been illegal to distribute it as Firefox. Hence, the test versions are named Minefield, without branding, therefore legal. OpenOffice.org does not have the same trademark issues with redistribution, so there is no need for a codename. I still think if it is indicated clearly what this is, such as changing the topic and a big fat note at the top of the post saying "this is an unofficial preview of a beta release of the new version and is not supported, blahblahblah..." it would be ok. Yes, it might be confusing, so just clear up the confusion, don't just take it down.
