Any plans for updates using this version vs the 2.2(rc3) version?
Or are they the same?

Updated today to 2.2 final - thanks Matthias & team :-)


As an added point - why are the Dapper and Edgy versions so far
behind 2.2?

This is never asked/answered too many times, is it? Dapper is LTS, so
it must be stable in the sense of a non-changing environment. This
means packages will retain their version whenever possible, and only
security packages backported. So for the next two years, all Dapper
installations will remain with the same version of every package
(except on the exceptions, of course).

I see. So *that* is the reason why it'll be stuck at 2.02 - thanks for
pointing that out...

The problem is resolved by uninstalling 2.0x and installing 2.1 or 2.2
directly from OOo. However, 2.02 came and went some time ago & it would
be nice to run 2.1 or 2.2 from the Ubuntu repositories in Dapper.
