I don't think that this makes sense (BTW: I think that most computers are ordered around Christmas, so releasing a new feature release in September isn't a bad timing). > What do developers think of this? I can speak for myself only. I think we should stick to our release cycle. We extended it for a reason. This reason hasn't gone. Besides that, OOo 2.2 isn't bad either. :-) Ciao, Mathias -- Mathias Bauer (mba) - Project Lead OpenOffice.org Writer OpenOffice.org Engineering at Sun: http://blogs.sun.com/GullFOSS Please don't reply to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]".
