Compared to what? To OOo 1.1.5? Or OOo 2.4.2? OOo 3.0 may be buggy. But it not more buggy than other OOo version. And for shure it's less buggy than OOo 1.1.5. Please be careful with such statements. You just unsettle potential OOo users.

It is well known that version 3.0.0 is more buggy than other recent versions, as with many version zero releases from many products. Be honest with clients. If someone is testing a product, they deserve to be told what they are getting. For example, I believe the password setting was included in “Save As” in all previous versions, and will be included again in version 3.0.1. But it does not appear in version 3.0.0.

A would-be user has no reason to be unsettled. They can use 2.4.2, as I suggested, or just wait for 3.0.1, or use 3.0.0, knowing that it isn’t as stable as some other releases. (I am using 3.0.0 myself.)

Not to tell users this would be dishonest.

Supposedly all bugs will be fixed in the
next release, version 3.0.1, currently due to be released this month.

Sounds good but it's not true. Not all bugs will be fixed in OOo 3.0.1.

That's why I said “supposedly”. But you are quite right.

I am almost sure that something will be missed.
