Hi Rich,

here are two that completely convinced me that i should use 1.1 for everything except testing...
1. when using generic widgets, floating toolbars always return to upper left corner. switch applications - they're back. some dialog - they're back. the only workaround i could find - don't use them. when i dock all of them, they stick there.

this issue still is assigned to requirements and i have no idea wether it will be fixed for 2.0...
As long as it is assigned to requirements it certainly won't be fixed. OTOH I cannot reproduce this in a recent milstone, so it probably is duplicate to an issue that has been fixed meanwhile.
2. this has been discussed a lot. and the sad thing is, the functionality was in oo.org, it just got removed without a reason.
yes, remembering the last edit position.
yesterday i tried to use 1.9m87 to edit some 20-40 page documents. after 30 minutes of work frustration was big enough to switch back to 1.1.4. i knew that i have got used to this feature, but i didn't know that it's absence would be that important.

there have been no dev response for some time, and i fear that the longer it's delayed, the more problems might arise.
That issue is an enhancement, assigned to requirements. This means it is in the queue for enhancement requests to be evaluated for the next version (after 2.0). No developer will even look at it in this state. As the issue requires a change of specification there really is no chance to get this implemented.
There is the related, but smaller and less controversial issue http://qa.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=39486, which would probably provide a sufficient workaround. But the developer responsible for that part of the code has stated long ago in the issue that he won't be able to fix this in time for 2.0.
Ciao, Joerg
