Open letter to TDF
IMO, not much hope in such letters, and not much potential good from people 'possibly to be lured' from there. The LO folks have already played the MS kind of game, when jumping to the 1.3 file format ahead of everybody. And our icon sets and menus structure do need daily reorganising, thank you. Also, you'd entice people to migrate with what? Frankly, LO has progressed in some areas beyond the AOO current level. Of what's noticeable to me there are build system, fonts support, graphics toolkits support. I guess xml security component is outdated in AOO, too. If one's not a programmer, one's stuck with some unconvenient modes of behaviour. -Yury - To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@openoffice.apache.org

In that sense, implementation of ODF 1.3 in OpenOffice would be a real progress! A real progress would be to release a new version (AOO42X) where we would be able to integrate such changes in the future. At the "moment" we are stuck with 4.1.x. We have our own problems to solve...

Re: Open letter to TDF
+1 In fact it might be counter productive for Apache OpenOffice to be seen as interfering in the democratic process of another project. Leave LibreOffice to resolve whatever problems they may or may not have and concentrate on attracting new developers and contributors to Apache OpenOffice.
