Totally understood, when the forum goes live it will add another layer to the puzzle (although my understanding is this *might* replace ask at some point. I think the way to improve is to streamline processes, get an understanding of what each of us are responsible for, and have contact names readily available if something is asked of you that you're sure is someone else's responsibility. Ultimately communication is the only solution. My proposal is that any bug that is reported on Ask, hand out my contact info if the user needs help with FDO or our BSA system, any question on FDO that clearly should be on Ask, I'll send to.....whom? > > IMO if we need documentation/wiki/instructions then the tool is wrong.

Personally I find FDO to be easy (this is precisely why we need others to look at it and say EXACTLY what is wrong with it). For me, click on submit a bug, select libreoffice, write steps to reproduce and put attachment.....seems straight forward, apparently for others there are snags and we may be able to fix them if we know exactly the issue(s) > > Following the logic of a famous scientist "If you can't explain it simply, > you don't understand it well enough" (Albert Einstein), I would say that > "If > you need to explain it, then it's not simple enough" :) > :-D Best, Joel -- *Joel Madero* LibreOffice QA Volunteer jmadero....@gmail.com
