Why such a long but vague description? Can't you simply paste your 
formulas, what they return and what you expect them return?
Recent versions fixed a severe bug where ambiguous numeric strings 
evaluated to numbers. Most likely your formulas exploited that bug.
Older versions of OOo (and Excel still) return different results for a 
text like "1,234" or "1.234". Depending on the locale context it 
evaluates to one-thousand-two-hundred-thirty-four or one point 234/1000. 
Same problem with string "1/2/1999" which evaluates to 2 different dates 
on either side of the Atlantic.
Only numbers are unambiguous.
Only numbers can work with numeric functions. Even when your text values 
work with A1+B1 they will certainly fail in SUM(A1:B1).
Only numbers do compare correctly to other numbers.
Numeric strings are deprecated unless used as identifiers, zip codes, 
part "numbers" where the numeric value is not relevant. But then you 
have to compare or lookup text values. Character "1" will never be equal 
to number 1.

[discuss] mail list - traffic and archives
I've noticed since the big switchover that list traffic (both here and 
in 'users') has reduced enormously, and I don't think I've seen anything 
at all from unsubscribed addresses (not that I'm complaining about that 
one :-)  ).

Also, the 'user' archives and 'general OOo mail lists' pages aren't 
accessible from the support.openoffice.org web site - I just get 'page 
not found'.

Are there temporary hiccups still in the big move?

[discuss] Re: Android Port?
Hi Zachary,

I did not hear about somebody starting such a port. I know that a port 
for Linux arm-eabi has been done by Caolán McNamara and by Peter Naulis 
which I believe might be a good starting point but It's just a guess 
because this is not my expertise. If you want to volunteer on porting 
OpenOffice.org to Android then please contact the team at the porting 
project at http://porting.openoffice.org. Be aware that porting to the 
underlying processor architecture on one operating system platform is 
just a starting point. I believe that there's a lot more work to be done 
to get the OpenOffice.org's UI to render on Android. And maybe some of 
the tooling needed has to be ported and/or to be improved before 
starting with the rest. For example I do not know if the gcc cross 
compilation to arm-eabi will manage the whole build. Maybe the somehow 
stripped libc (called bionic) on Android won't provide all symbols 
needed (just a guess...).

Why do you prefer to have it on Honeycomb instead of having it on 
Gingerbread or on Froyo or on earlier systems instead ? I would love to 
see it on my Froyo device... Or maybe you want to plan to make int run 
on the current development codline Ice Cream which is planned to merge 
2.x and 3.x codelines together ?

There has been a steady decline over the years regarding mail to both 
users and discuss mail lists. Haven't noticed a specific decline since the 
migration.

There are still moderated emails coming through, but I'm not 100% sure 
they have the 'moderated' tag set in the email headers any longer. I think 
the change in email list management software (to Sympa) may have changed 
this.

The support page does seem to have an incorrect link (have raised the 
issue), however you can use the following one to get to the users mailing

Since you are subscribed (to both users and discuss) your emails do not 
get moderated. The list has received emails from you on 7/3/11, 2/3/11, 
28/2/11 (among other older ones).

If you resend the emails clearly stating what you are requesting help with 
I'm sure someone can assist.

Aah, that's it then. I should have looked more closely I suppose, but 
have been relying in my MUA colouring non-subscribers a virulent colour 
(!) Which is broken now :-(

Thanks for the link.


Incidentally, I noticed my own mail was delayed around 7 hours; seems to 
have bounced round the kenai mail system a bit.
