I spoke of a climate that I do not like. And I did this because I see that criticism for improvement is too often understood as negative. > I don't speak for all in the project. Have you read what you write? at first: "a new release within the 4.1.x release branch _cannot be big_ by definition of the version schema" and to this I say: you are absolutely right but then you write: "_so_ using the word "upgrade" is not wrong." and to this I say: if the change is small it would rather be an "update", because "upgrade" generally applies to larger changes Jörg --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@openoffice.apache.org
