Obviously more widely used features are reported immediately and are reported sooner. But those obvious problems don't worry me too much. It's the little things that are left behind and the small bugs that nobody cares to fix that are degradating LO. According to TDF, there were 9 million Windows downloads. How many reports are there for Windows bugs? Millions? Thousands? Hundreds? Most Windows users are comparing LO to their (legal or illegal) copy of MS Office. So that makes them a tougher audience. If TDF's goal is to get people to switch from a proprietary program and file format, LO has to be *at least* as good as the competition. People give LO a try and the minute they find something that doesn't work as they expect, they just give up. I think that is why many problems are not reported. It's not that the regressions are rarely used. They are rarely reported. Just my 2 cents. BTW version 3.5.0. is already out http://fileforum.betanews.com/detail/LibreOffice-for-Windows/1288723415/1?all_reviews Regards, Pedro -- View this message in context: http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/Libreoffice-qa-Minutes-QA-related-TSC-call-2012-01-26-tp3695662p3732378.html Sent from the QA mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ List Name: Libreoffice-qa mailing list Mail address: [email protected] Change settings: http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-qa Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/libreoffice-qa/
