it is not contradictory and have I pointed out that we don't release if there are valid concerns. We will release when we don't have critical show stopper issues. And discussion on show stopper issues should take place on ooo-dev when issues marked as critical. I don't think we have to define the rules for show stopper issues again and can use the existing ones (e.g. crashes, data loss, ...) I hope people will take it serious and don't vote against a release without valid concerns. Juergen > Groetjes, > Olaf >
