The devs (and many QA people like me) have wide experience using computer software, different apps with various UI styles. And they are typically more perceptive and perhaps even intelligent than the average person who needs to do simple office or personal document authoring. That's a bias. Some people are better able to correct for that bias - but even the question of _how_ to correct for this bias is a matter for debate. > The project is very much a meritocracy, driven by the source that is > developer crafted peer reviewed and then built for QA testing/distribution. I believe what you're saying contradicts the formal and perhaps the practical way things work in the TDF, but perhaps we're going out of scope too much with this argument. > (In reply to Eyal Rozenberg from comment #32) > "aware of the tabbed UI" or how many would actually "use it" given its half > baked status aware.

If it were up to me, tabbed UI would need to be more ready before even being exposed. And I believe Stuart's argument is that no developer is interested in having a tabbed UI in LO enough to continue working on its implementation. > IMO, no unanimity is needed to move this forward.

My support is conditioned on progress towards properly completing the implementation of the tabbed UI, i.e. resolving some of the more painful issues blocking bug 107237. Regardless - this should certainly not decided by a majority among 4 people opining on a bug. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
