Actually we (upstreamers) were going to use the same OpenOffice.org1.0 but since there have been changes in the format of the hyphenation dictionaries and movements of dictioarnies to cetralized shared locations then the old ~/OpenOffice.org1.0 user dicrectory contents conflicted with these changes and we were forced to rename it to prevent errors. > Maybe we'll all end up saying 1.0.1 is perfect and we don't need to keep > the older 1.0.0 user directory lying around.
