We hope you like the new features, especially the Sidebar UI. We wish to give a special 'hello' to our upgrading users. The new logo is the result of many design iterations, collaboration among talented designers and a contest where 40 logos were rated by over 50,000 users. One other thing that you will notice immediately, on this page, our website and in other places, is our new logo. You can read the details of these later in these Release Notes. OpenOffice 4.0 features an innovative new Sidebar user interface, additional language support for 22 languages (including 3 new languages), 500 bug fixes, improvements in Microsoft Office interoperability, enhancements to drawing/graphics, performance improvements, etc.
