probably most of us have a couple of problems with 1.9 builds. are there any that are serious enough so that in spite of all benefits that could be gaine by switching to 2.0 you still would be using 1.1 ? not problems that might prevent your organization from using oo.org, but you peronsally. just you :)

here are two that completely convinced me that i should use 1.1 for everything except testing...

1. when using generic widgets, floating toolbars always return to upper left corner. switch applications - they're back. some dialog - they're back. the only workaround i could find - don't use them. when i dock all of them, they stick there.

this issue still is assigned to requirements and i have no idea wether it will be fixed for 2.0...

2. this has been discussed a lot. and the sad thing is, the functionality was in oo.org, it just got removed without a reason.
yes, remembering the last edit position.


yesterday i tried to use 1.9m87 to edit some 20-40 page documents. after 30 minutes of work frustration was big enough to switch back to 1.1.4. i knew that i have got used to this feature, but i didn't know that it's absence would be that important.

there have been no dev response for some time, and i fear that the longer it's delayed, the more problems might arise.

although i will suggest 2.0 for my organization (better support for msoffice documents, nice pdf export, shapes and other features make it a really nice improvement), i'll still use 1.1 myself, unless "my private showstoppers" will go away.
