As a member of OOoQA I have trawled through some of the issues in dba,
but there are many db engines to which I simply do not have access.
Oracle is but one of them. I guess this is pretty much the case for many
volunteers in the QA project who are interested in using dbs with OOo.
The same goes for platform specific issues - how many home users have
access to a Solaris machine, for example ? I currently work uniquely on
the Linux/x86 and Mac/PPC architectures, and even PPC comes second to
x86. It all comes down to numbers of volunteers having the requisite
hardware/software setup to confirm the issue. Obviously, at least, no QA
volunteers interested in solving QA bugs have the same setup as you do.
