Hi all Apparently some users feel obligated and compelled to donate in order to be able to download. http://ask.libreoffice.org/en/question/29380/how-can-you-say-its-free-when-theres-no-way-to-get-rid-of-the-money-amounts/ http://ask.libreoffice.org/en/question/23053/why-cant-i-even-start-a-download-i-donated-the-default-amount/
One is actually offering to PAY to skip the donation page on each update http://ask.libreoffice.org/en/question/32239/donation-methods/ Please look at the download page (which is by coincidence entitled Donate...) http://donate.libreoffice.org/home/dl/win-x86/4.2.2/en-US/LibreOffice_4.2.2_Win_x86.msi It's a whole page about Donation with a small link to the built-in Help... For a Free Open Source software from a Foundation whose goal is to "to eliminate the digital divide in society by giving everyone access to office productivity tools free of charge" don't you think that there is too much pressure on users to donate??? Apparently some users feel that... Maybe the page needs a re-design?
