Hi,

I read your WarpCast from May 22. and it is true that 90MB are difficult
to download. NetScape it works not so good, and I used Gibbon FTP (very
good) to broken lines. It was about 4 hours (ISDN).

There is a registration page. After this you can elect a FTP or a WEB
server. On the most mirrors there are 4 x 90MB for every language. The
english version is so51_os2_01.exe (01 is the codepage for english).

What I do not understand is the supplementary Java 1.1.7 in this package
(surely every has on the OS/2 system this package). The package is
compact, and you cannot quit this download.

I haven't yet installed StarOffice, but all the documentation is in the
english (inclusive a .pdf manual about 50 pages) about installation.

MODERATOR'S NOTE: According to reports I have received from other
WarpCast subscribers, StarOffice 5.1 is now available on the
english pages of the Star Division web site. I can tell you from
pesonal experience that it is a bear to download.

The english pages of the StarDivision web site can be reached at
