Writer save error
Hi. I'm writing a book with a large number of equations and cross-references in it and recently ran up against a problem saving the file. There are approximately 4800 equations currently in the text and many cross-references and figures. When I add equations I get a save error: Error saving the document , General Error. General input/output error. I don't know if this is a bug in the program or a feature. Is there a coded limit to the number of equations that can be put into a document? If so, in what file in the source would I find it specifically?

Overall I saw it as a better move to have those issues taken care of and gain whatever advances that was made between 2.2.9 and 1.8.x. As fir the cws hsqldb19 branch, i did check through it and the patches from there are currently being used. Beside that I didn't see any relevant changes, for example the check for 1.8.x in the configure script.

4.0 status
Maybe others have been looking at this...please step in if you are doing this. Given we are now close to Apr.5 (the planned regression test date), this could be a good time for us to look at the current status for all the items (features/enhancements) in 4.0. I'm looking at the wiki page here, https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OOOUSERS/AOO+4.0+Release+Planning. Two questions here, 1) do we have more new items in 4.0? if yes, can people help to add? 2) still quite some items are at the proposed status...we may need to either update the status, or move some to future candidates. Thoughts? Thanks Helen
