Ok, let me explain. Suppose that we release in 5 months and that the release is not good enough (i.e. as usual with KOffice). The next release is in 6 months after that. This means that it will take 11 months until the user can get a usable Calligra suite. Now, if we instead prolong the initial release phase to, say, 7 months and by doing that make sure that the release is in fact good enough then the user gets a usable Calligra in 7 months. This means that the early release delays the time that the user can get his/her hands on a usable Calligra with 4 months. All figures are just examples, of course, but the reasoning stands. _______________________________________________ calligra-devel mailing list calligra-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/calligra-devel
