Re: MySQL Connector for OpenOffice.org 1.0

Hi Zoltan,

that's correct. Maybe you have already noticed that the product name has 
changed a bit. Therefore we also had to change the filesnames to reflect 
the new name. The consequence is that the update path is broken. But I 
think it's OK when going from beta to final. ;-)

Best regards

Marcus
