Why you have such impression? I just said that primary focus was to deliver model that works fine for our current needs. For something more sophisticated simply we had no resources. Take that into account. I had no focus or plans for turning model into full-fledged word processor in future. Right. But i don't see how the model could block such development, if such need would arise at some point. If you have doubts about model, feel free to point it out and we can discuss details. > > Stephan > > -- Best regards, Igor Stasenko.
