Because the vast number of our developers work for FREE we have to prioritize and get to bugs that impact the largest number of users. We have very few developers who know the presentation code, those ones do a tremendous amount of work and should be thanked by everyone for the service they provide. 4) If you want to contribute (either by developing, helping QA or giving money) it may help get bugs squashed faster - there are plenty to go around ;) Best, Joel -- *Joel Madero* LibreOffice QA Volunteer [email protected] -- 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
