Just to clarify, I'm not saying that anythng done to date is useless or otherwise unedesirable in any way. All I want is for the simple, original bug list of bugs that have always been there need to be fixed. LO should do what it says it'll do. I seem to be getting back noise that says bug fixing is of no interest to anyone on the dev teams. That bothers me because it prevents a huge number of people from doing more than testing LO for a few days and stopping when such up-front, obvious a lst of bugs as exists becomes apparent. -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: [email protected] Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ 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
