It's been pointed out already, and I'll reproduce it here: If this is a bug your options are: > 1. Fix it yourself; > 2. Pay for a fix; > 3. Find a friend/family member to fix it; > 4. Wait patiently until a volunteer *chooses* to fix it. Really, as with any opensource project, every resource is finite, including dev time. What get prioritized by the main devs is (in no particular order, this is a general remark not specific to LibreOffice) bugs affecting a very large part of the userbase, trivial issues to fix (those are rare!), and things that devs are interested in. This also mean that problems users have with the program do get fixed (just check the bugtracker). Beyond that, asking for an opensource project to dedicate resources to fix a minor issue that is unnoticed by almost everyone (or, in the case of this thread, something that is not even a bug in LibreOffice) is not reasonable. If one encounter a particularly nasty issue and can't raise interest in it, there are companies that can fix them for a price. It have happened before, and I don't doubt that it will continue to happen. Note that I'm not even touching the subject of those big corporations reactivity with minor issues; commercial products might have more ressources, but I'm sure there's a fair number of minor bugs that have left some users disgruntled ;) -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: users+unsubscr...@global.libreoffice.org 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
