Well, you're both right. I mean that eyeballs finding bugs does not translate to eyeballs capable of fixing them. There may be some comment by Eric Raymond about this over on my blog. I can't remember. In any case, his argument was -- I think -- that users don't have eyeballs that matter for the improvement of code. Which is the whole problem.
Not directly, anyway. But I've personally filed bug reports on IZ that were taken as valid and had people assigned to work on them. I would hate to think that the effort I put in to initially learn how to file issues, and then to describe the problem as well as possible, complete with example documents, doesn't count as a contribution.
But I totally agree with you that OOo doesn't fit in with ESR's model of open-source development.
