Just a very quiet, cautionary word of warning: I would sleep a bit better if we could all agree on a four eyes principle (i.e. mandatory reviews) for anything that adds new information to the crash report. It's sometimes not immediately obvious, but e.g. extension & path names, font sets etc (and who knows what else we'll come up with) can reveal quite intimate information about an installation environment. For the record, the feature & crash dumps as it is look perfectly sane. And again, thanks so much. This is a great addition to LibreOffice, I used to use the Sun-internal crash reporter that unforunately went down with that company, and it was invaluable. Cheers, -- Thorsten
