Today though I may have found the scale-tipper: OOoOSX spat out the following on an attempted export: "Write error. The file could not be written." That's a doozy of an error. Google told me that OOo is rather lackadaisical about bug fixing: http://www.oooforum.org/forum/viewtopic.phtml?t=6178 NeoOffice did just fine with the same file. No error. Maybe I should finally give them the 5 dollars they keep asking me for...

We are targeting new users and trying to get the word out about an all day Introduction to Drupal training tutorial. The cost is free. I am sure you've met some people around Stanford who think they need a website, but don't have the budget or skills to learn about open source websites. This is a great opportunity to introduce them to open source and give them an opportunity to learn from the ground up. Attendees can register here: http://badcamp.net We anticipate that we are going to have to close registration early. If any of you would be interested in talking about how Stanford is using Drupal, or you wanted to do a presentation on a particular project, we love to have you present.
