As it seems the AOO 4.1.13 RC1 vote may pass (hopefully soon ), I'm
working on the announce email and blog post.
Since the .openoffice user profile is not backward compatible with
previous 4.1 versions for stored passwords, should we place a warning
for users to back up up their user profileĀ in the announce email, blog
post, release notes, etc. or not necessary?
If we do mention it, we have to make perfectly clear that this will
only affect users that enabled the "Openoffice dialog" AND have set a
"Master password".
These are two options that are NOT enabled by default so only
advanced users would use both.
That said, for those users, they have to realize that they MUST make
a backup before updating IF they intend to downgrade AOO at any point
(which is also something common users don't do...)
I hope such a warning is not confusing/worrying for common users...
you have good ideas what the text should contain. Would you like to
try to write a paragraph? We all can then see what needs to be added.
My thoughts are using the announcement Blog post and the Release notes
and not the emails.
I can draft the paragraph but I don't know all the file paths to the
profile. Mainly Mac since I don't have one.
I think it is basically a warning targeted to users whom us a master
password.
I'll reply with a draft and hopefully someone can fill that part in for me.
Thanks,
Carl
Thanks
