I support this idea, but only in order to save work that would otherwise be lost due to bit rot. So it should not be a free for all to put in some new features. If the work you have laying around can easily be saved after the porting then I think it's better to wait until 3.1 (I hope 3.0 should be the shortest release cycle ever, so 3.1 will not be far behind) For 2 reasons i think we shouldn't open up already: - it is a save-your-work kind of window - the longer we wait the more time people will have to polish their saved wor for better quality. That said i'm not opposed to a 1 day window already if people have finished work. I also think we should have people list right now what work they want to save and what the status of said work is so we know how much we are talking about. best regards Camilla _______________________________________________ calligra-devel mailing list calligra-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/calligra-devel
