Subject: [ANNOUNCE] Apache OpenOffice 4.1.8 released

10 November 2020 - Apache OpenOffice, the leading Open
Source office
document productivity suite, announced today Apache
OpenOffice 4.1.8,
now available in 41 languages on Windows, macOS and Linux.
[...]

I think it is absolutely obvious that version 4.1.8 is an
update (and not an upgrade).
I don't understand why this is wrongly labeled in the
announcement as well as in the release notes.

a new release within the 4.1.x release branch cannot be big by
definition of the version schema. So, so using the word
"upgrade" is not
wrong. This is my opinion.

And to be honest, I don't see a problem here. The difference
of meaning
between "update" and "upgrade" is not really big.

Good release notes, as well as good documentation and much more are a necessary 
part of good software.
Why is it once again seemingly more important to reject criticism than to take 
it up and consider it for the future?

I'm sorry Marcus, it's just this climate in the community that has kept me from 
working more intensively for a long time.

I don't understand why you see here a bad climate.

It's just that I (as a single person!) don't share your opinion. Not more and not less.

I don't speak for all in the project. So, when we all agree that the wording shuld be improved, we can of course change it for the next release.

Marcus
