Hi Tom :)
Good answers to Urmas there. Considerate, understanding and light-hearted. Nicely done! :)
I was allowing for the possibility that he wasn't serious. Turns out not to be true.

I've almost never found 'professional' proprietary stuff to be any better than OpenSource.
My experience exactly.
Indeed a new study by an independant security company found that OpenSource had slightly less errors per 1,000 lines of code. There is also the usual faster response time to fixing issues due to even mere normal users being able to report issues quickly and fairly easily and perhaps even getting involved in solving the problem and discovering coding skills.
*Faster response time:* Yes. I've been running the latest alpha build. My "vector M" nonsense problem is gone. But there was a problem with row sorting crashing the program. I just installed the very latest Master, on the advice of the dev replying to my bug report. Now THAT problem appears to be gone. This is all very cool.

*Getting involved: *Yes, also.**I'm learning the bug reporting interface and protocol, in the process. Is easy enough. Looks like I've found a way I can contribute, with my very limited time. That, too, is very cool.

Now we just need to get right of the Urmas bullying bug and we'll be all set. I'll be watching that one especially closely.

Tom :)

    No I didn't. It went fine. I've been using it all day. Some
    problems have arisen, but I'm working through them and trying to
    find the pattern so I can report them usefully.

       Did you by chance experience any dependency errors during your
    install?

       See:

       (Dependency errors with
    LibreOfficeDev_4.3.0.0.alpha1_Linux_x86-64_deb
       install)
