I want to inform the developer community that an user offered 250

Bug 33082 - Multiple operations are not tracked as change in change control

Hmm. So - just as a hyper-optimistic estimation - implementing change
tracking for tables, including the file-format support (there is none in
ODF as such) and so on is the order of a six man month type job: unit
tests, filter work, core data structure pieces etc.
I'm not a programmer so I had no idea how much effort was needed.
thanks for the info.
It is good to have people supporting and offering money for the work -
but 6 man months is 8*5*4*6 hours -> 960 hours. No idea what you think a
programmer should earn but $0.26/hr rate is below most estimations ;-)
not a good salary indeed
even those who built the pyramids were paid better :-)
anyway as that user said, anyone is free to add a few bucks to the
funding campaign
Having said that - it is clear that this is an important missing
feature. In general it would be good to split it into many bugs - some
of the features are smaller and less problematic.
HTH !
Michael.
bye, Tommy
