Maybe, in the case of corporate funded projects (oo.o and similar) the
paid developers could be "forced" by their employer to directly spend
time *talking* with end users in human ways (= not issuezilla and
similar). I'll let to who knows better than me how OO.o is managed any
further discussion on OO.o proper. When it comes to volunteer work (of
any FOSS application), I have no idea. Me, I'd be happy enough to just
see those volunteers to *stop* snobbing non-programmers has it happens
today, or yell from the rooftops "this app is sooooo user-friendly,
sooooooooo for everyone...".

Ciao,
Marco

wants and not give in to it, to spend years in silent hurt wondering
if something could have materialized -- and never knowing.  --
