As far as I know, only the PMC has the right to decide about the release of a release - so will the PMC reliably support the mentioned principle (='API changes not in a minor release')? I would appreciate a clear "yes" or "no" on this. And please allow me to say that the current formal minor release of AOO is "4.1", so, respecting the implied principle, a change to the API is thus not allowed until version 5.0.0. greetings, Jörg --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@openoffice.apache.org
