Dear Jorg,

I am a loyal user of WPS and Microsoft Office, not Open Office.

The reason why I suggested an Open Office Lite edition is I am tired of the new 
versions of WPS and Microsoft that have little improvement over the previous 
ones.

I am suggesting this for the better common good of office users, not because I 
have the need to use it. I will become a loyal fan of Oo Lite if it meets the 
quality requirement for research paper quality writing, but not for now.

China already has a free replacement of Microsoft Office, which is WPS. The 
software also has a Linux Edition. People really have no urge to use Oo Lite. 
WPS is currently No. 1 on Chinese market.

I think European market would be a good place for Oo Lite.

I am not "honestly" saying I want an Oo Lite Edition because I don't know what 
"I" represents for at this moment. I have trouble with my social and family 
ties that the other side refuse to listen or accept a resolution in a legal and 
enforcible manner. I find I am incapable to resolve anything related to more 
than 1 person that involves "I". So I go for the word "future" instead of "I". 
In future, we will see a better and different world, even though I might not 
live to that day.

Where is the problem to honestly say: an "Oo Lite edition" would please me? 
That would be a position I could share.

What I can't share is the kind of argumentation that tries to convince us of 
unrealistic chances of success for AOO, only with the obvious interest of 
wanting to push through an "Oo Lite Edition" in this way.

A little provocatively:
Where are the Chinese developers who are interested in implementing a "Oo Lite 
edition"? _If_ it were realistic that a "Oo Lite edition" would be so overly 
successful in China, then I'm pretty sure Chinese developers would realize that 
and be willing to support AOO.



But such questions are answered automatically in a meritocratic project, 
because if there are enough people who believe in the success of a specific 
change in the program, then (not necessarily, but very likely) people will be 
found who will implement this change in practice.
