Maybe a new thread for the survey would be helpful to get attention from those not following the "install" thread.

Installer download and manually removing leftover files, there have been no updates so far. > What do you expect when Installing/Updating LibreOffice? It should NOT overwrite an existing OOo install and just grab the existing user files as it happened now. Updates should be incremental, notified and downloaded in the background but let the user choose when to install. Necessary files should go to a temp folder and preferably be removed by the installer after completion. > Other programs have separate updating programs (iTunes being an > example), if it was technically feasible, would having a separate > install program for LibreOffice (with updating features) be useful to you? Yes, it could replace the extensions updater and offer a choice which parts of LO should be updated. > Would having a download and update site, as well as a Unix|Linux package > repository site, be of value to you? Certainly yes, a very useful example is http://releases.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/. > So let's hear what you think folks? done Erich -- To unsubscribe, e-mail to discuss+h...@documentfoundation.org All messages you send to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted.
