--- Comment #10 from Prudhvi <[email protected]> ---
I have successfully replicated this bug in OpenOffice 4.0.1 running on Linux
Ubuntu 13.04 version.
Follow simple steps shown below to replicate this bug
1. Create a new document in OpenOffice Writer.
2. Type some text that contains i've or i'm such that one of them should appear
at the beginning of a sentence and the other one in the middle of the sentence.
3. Notice that the letter 'i' (in the words i've or i'm) gets auto capitalized
only if it is used in the beginning of a sentence and not in the middle of a
sentence. 
4. Also notice that if the letter 'i' is used alone it gets auto capitalized
everywhere regardless its position in the sentence. 

I have done some follow-up tests to see how the letter 'i' in the contraction
words behave if it was placed after a comma or semicolon or as a starting
letter in the quotes. The OpenOffice writer failed to auto capitalize even in
those situations. This made clear that the letter 'i' in the contraction words
is getting capitalized only after fullstops i.e at the beginning of a new
sentence and at the beginning of a document. Even though this failure is not
completely a bug, I would consider the auto capitalization enhancement for the
contraction words to be very important because those are commonly used in
English. So this feature should be provided by OpenOffice writer which is
already implemented in MS word.
