pjanik, please don't be so flippant. OOo is used in schools and in work places.
In addition to the concern stated above about the size of the code base and the
violation of the KISS-principle, you have the problem of the 'eggs themselves.
Ian has pointed out
http://marketing.openoffice.org/servlets/ReadMsg?list=dev&msgNo=22474
one very probable scenario:
"I can just imagine a teacher in a class
being Inspected By OFSTED when some wag
finds the Easter Egg and suddenly all the
kids are playing space invaders instead of
doing their work. (failed lesson and in
the UK 15-20 failed lessons over a week can
trigger special measures with the head losing
his job) A disaster like that would quickly
get round the grapevine and it would be another
reason not to install OOo."
Just because MSO has easter eggs, doesn't mean that it's good for OOo.
"We can't remove code from already released versions."
Fine.
"We don't plan to remove code from yet-to-be-released versions."
You mean 'not yet'. There should be at least a discussion and solid basis for
the decision.
