            <P>[PRODUCTNAME] software is a complete, feature-rich office productivity suite that 
               provides, in combination with this SDK, all the essential tools for building and deploying 
               custom solutions that build on, or integrate with, the [PRODUCTNAME] suite of products.
            </p>
            <p>The SDK is a development kit for [PRODUCTNAME], which eases the development 
               of office components. It provides a set of libraries, binaries, header, and IDL files 
               which have final API's and can only be extended with new functionality. This set of 
               libraries and binaries is the minimum set of functions needed to use system abstraction for 
               base functionality and for using UNO (Universal Network Objects) component technology. 
               The UNO component model is the base of the whole Office API. The SDK provides everything 
               necessary to use the Office API from external programs (e.g. Java, C++) 
               or to extend the Office functionality with new components (e.g. new filter components, 
               CalcAddin functions).  It is compatible over several versions because the API remains 
               unaffected and will only be extended with new functions.</P>
            <p>The SDK provides the basic building blocks for external developers to develop components in 
               any language for which a binding exists. Currently, there are language bindings for 
               [PRODUCTNAME] Basic, Java, and different C++ compilers on different platforms, for 
               [PRODUCTNAME], thus covering the two most commonly used programming languages. There 
               will be no limit for office automation in heterogeneous environments. Currently supported
               platforms of the SDK are Linux, Solaris (sparc), and Windows.</p>
            <P>The SDK also contains <a href="docs/common/ref/com/sun/star/module-ix.html" title=
	        "link to the IDL reference documentation"> reference</a> documentation for the API 
		and a complete
