--- Comment #93 from JeffD <jeffda...@openmailbox.org> ---
How is it that bugs are introduced in minor point releases that are supposed to
be "bug fix only" releases, and then they take several more updates to be
fixed, if ever?
Even if you go back to an earlier release where fonts are rendered clearly,
then you have another bug where RTF isn't pasted correctly.
How are ugly fonts and improper pasting not serious issues in what is supposed
to be a professional office product, and how do such serious bugs keep getting
closed out by people who obviously didn't experience the bugs on their systems
to begin with?
While having been a big promoter of LibreOffice, I've come to see how forced
updates every few weeks on a schedule no matter what, don't necessarily work
that well in practice. The claim is that these forced releases result in
"quality free software", and in fact, it does seem LibreOffice is tending to
become quality free. It would be good if bugs were actually fixed before
releasing "bug fix" updates instead of introducing new bugs, and even if new
bugs are at times unavoidably introduced, why is it so hard to reverse what
caused the bugs?
No wonder why OpenOffice continues to be so popular despite the lack of
resources committed to it. Some users just seem to want something that works
for them over constant updates.
I personally would use the "Still" version of LO, if "Still" meant "stable",
but the difference between the "Still" and "Fresh" version is that the new bugs
in the "Fresh" version may be different than the unfixed bugs in the "Still"
version, and the updates are still frequent in the "Still" version.
