One thing I would like to see the Document Foundation undertake is to (or at least try to) organize the other major efforts, like Go-oo, OxygenOffice and NeoOffice - and maybe now even IBM/Lotus Symphony - to eliminate duplication of effort and coordinate patch acceptance, etc. The inclusion of most of go-oo's more stable patches in the first beta release is an excellent first step in this direction, and I hope is only 'shades of things to come' in this area. I'm getting really excited at the possibilities! -- Best regards, Charles -- To unsubscribe, send an empty e-mail to [email protected] All messages you send to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted.
