------- Additional comments from rustybad...@openoffice.org Fri Jan 16 18:01:02 +0000 2009 ------- I don't want to see this issue closed either. It may certainly be possible to combine two issues, but I would worry that this one would get glossed over by the developers, as it has for so long. I cannot state this strongly enough: the split document view is the only feature that's keeping OO from being widely adopted by the education market. I just spent $10,000.00 renewing my Microsoft licensing for my district- this is money I could have spent in better ways if I could have deployed Open Office; some of that money (or all of it for all I care) could have been spent on OO development- an offer I made quite some time ago with no response. The offer is still there for an ambitious developer- you implement the feature, I am willing to pay for it. I can't see why this seems so difficult. F/OSS is a great thing, except when development stalls: then it sucks. OO is a great product, and kudos to the developers who are working to make it better. Please, though- we've been waiting for this split-document view option for ages now in education. Make it happen! --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
