I must be misunderstanding something. Usually anything is a reportable bug. Users report all sort of things, and then there's some evaluation and priorisation process to decide which bugs are fixed. I think I can report a bug to OpenOffice.org saying it doesn't toast my toasts on the right side, so that's a reportable bug as much as ODF non-compliance. Hopefully what happens to each of those bugs is what makes the difference, but saying something is a reportable bug is quite a low offer. Ok, so defective toast toasting is not "officially regarded" as reportable, and ODF non-compliance is. Good. But then it still gives no warranty of conformance. I don't mean to criticise OOo. I just think it's better to say they have ODF conformance as a high priority goal (hopefully true) than to say non-conformance is officially a reportable bug. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] Signa per fer Collserola parc natural com cal http://www.collserola.org/salvemelparcnatural/ _______________________________________________ Discussion mailing list [email protected] https://mail.fsfeurope.org/mailman/listinfo/discussion
