Well, yes, but "early adopters" doesn't imply "unfinished developer version". It merely implies "people who want the latest one first without subsequent bug fixes." The word "final" implies "production ready". I didn't install 3.4 because the warnings made me look at the release notes, which led me to believe there are known bugs that would cause serious problems for my office, but what if I hadn't gotten it from the website? What if someone had given it to me on a CD merely labeled "3.4 Final"? There needs to be some clearer information on the site, and if the even-numbered release are "development" branches, then there should be a warning for users when they install those versions, as well. - -- Steven Shelton -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.12 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAk4MoesACgkQXUonIzCvpdOVMQCfYaB3bB6iXlPgxVLJE1xEnE0h Z20AoIXzIvwZYUUSvsHeCy8BanwTUD2u =f6bZ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to [email protected] In case of problems unsubscribing, write to [email protected] Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
