Your TSC summary shows there are still 80 regressions. At a rate of 1 fix per day that would take over 2.5 months. The problem is that there is a new release each month (sometimes 2 releases in the same month) http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleasePlan It is reasonable to expect that these new builds will have more features (especially the 3.6.x) so new bugs and new regressions will be added... And since for each pre-release period, which happens monthly, the priority are the blockers, regressions will tend to accumulate and overall quality to decrease as mentioned by Nino on this topic (I agree with him) http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/Libreoffice-qa-preparing-QA-talk-for-FOSDEM-tp3691881p3691881.html So, again, I think that as boring as it might be for the devs, they should concentrate on the regressions... I am well aware that this is a voluntary project and that everyone has the freedom to do whatever they feel like... but as a project that doesn't seem to work (especially with such an ambitious release schedule). IMO you can't be free and ambitious...
