------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fri Mar 10 19:16:43 -0800 2006 ------- "I have never met an application from the normal user variety that does not have defects or crash. Every software has defects." The problem isn't that OOo has defects, the problem is in the way it handles them: if it encounters a defect, it just throws up a dialog box and says "sorry, report it and maybe we'll fix it some time". A lot of other software doesn't do that--it attempts to fail and recover gracefully. "If you have crashed: did you ever sent a crash report if you where offered to?" Yes, multiple times. So, what do you suggest? That I postpone my presentation until you get around to fixing that particular bug? Making software robust and dependable doesn't mean fixing all the bugs, it means having it fail gracefully in the presence of the bugs that are inevitably there; OOo doesn't, and that's a major defect. If you don't like the workarounds I suggested, maybe you can find some other solution. But if you want people to take OOo seriously, the situation that a user saves a file and then can never load it into OOo again because OOo reproducibly crashes right after loading it simply is not acceptable. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
