------- Additional comments from [email protected] Thu May 14 22:16:52 +0000 2009 ------- Hi FL. The updated spec seems to address the most common cases and it's clearly better than now. But what i really cannot understand is why you are cutting out a working and a more precise functionality to a limited one. At work we have some Win2000 PCs that we are trying to switch to OpenOffice. Initially i've installed OOo side by side, leaving untouched the file associations to MSO97 and keeping free the user to test OOo. After some time i've switched the file associations to OOo to see how they feel. Some of them asked me to switch back to Excel because some feature they use works better. With the new spec i can only switch back *ALL* the file association to MSO (or change file associations manually), while now i can only proceed manually and before 3.x we can tweak every single association, restoring Excel association and leaving all the rest to OOo. To me the differences between 2.x and the updated spec are a reduction in flexibility with apparent no real advantage. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
