I seemed to have provoked somewhat of a storm with my frustration with OOO. However, I assure everyone, this was not my intention.
Then why did you feel the need to SHOUT about your feelings?
A couple of people wrote to me to say they understood my frustrations, but keep at it ad I intend to do so. I would like to have easier access to information though. I agree with one of the correspondents who thought that the information about help files should be downloaded with the programme.
Despite another corresondent stating that OOO is not a clone of MS Office, I do feel that it is in competition with it, and things should be made as easy as possible for potential users.
It is impossible to make things as "easy as possible for [all] potential users." That is because far too many users are too intellectually lazy to make the effort to learn and understand their tasks and the tools to perform those tasks. They merely know how to push the buttons they were taught. You are welcome to try to prove me wrong, but first spend a few weeks reading and even responding to inquiries to this list. Your appreciation of the incredible patience and dedication of the Project Leads and other regular contributors will be altered significantly.
And, no, I am not a project member.
