It is my first impression of OOo2 that it has some OSIS compliance.
But I don't have first hand experience with that. I am currently
running OOo2 and have had wonderful luck with it. I ran previous
versions with pretty good luck, but had compatibility issues with MS
Office. Sounds like OOo2 is more compatible :-)

Sorry I wasn't of more help, though...

God Bless <><
