On the OOo releases list you could nominate a bug as a 'blocker' on the list. LO doesn't have the same (that I'm aware of), but they do have a 'most annoying bug' bug report for releases going forward. As far as I can tell anyone can add to that bug report with their own bug report addition. See: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=37361 [LibreOffice 3.5 most annoying bugs] <quote from first comment> This is the Meta issue to track most annoying bugs for the release of LibreOffice 3.5.x releases. It helps developers to concentrate on bugs that are important for users. Also it helps users to be aware of potential problems. If anyone wants to raise an Bug for the release, please add the Bug ID as dependent Bug here to the Meta Bug in field "Depends on". Additionally please leave a comment here why you think that the bug should be privileged. See also http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Release_Criteria and http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleasePlan </quote from first comment> So if you've a particular bug that you'd like to see fixed add it there... of course after first reading: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Release_Criteria That does include information on blockers, but I've not found any wiki pages on 'most annoying bug' criteria (yet). So I reckon that until someone defines the MAB criteria, add your MAB to 37361. ... -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: users+h...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
