Hi Kenneth - This mailing list is actually for contributors dealing with quality assurance. You'll likely want to ask the user mailing list - more people monitor that with a wider response. You list a whole list of issues and it's usually hard to get responses with "meta" questions.
My suggestion is to: 1) Email user list; 2) Each email addresses a single issue 3) If others see the same issues - best bet is to report a bug at bugs.libreoffice.org - a volunteer then would have to volunteer for to fix the issue (if there is one). Warmest Regards, Joel P.S. I highly recommend not including cell phone numbers in the mailing list - the emails are public....
