For reference, here's the current state of the proposals for 'voting for bugs' in the LO project: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Vote_for_Enhancement https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=37141 The concept behind the Idea Torrent software is good, but I'm a little concerned about the future of the codebase. It looks like the primary dev got busy with other work 3 years ago, stopped a re-write of the codebase, and stopped posting to the project blog. The latest stable release is about a year older than that. The archive link for the dev mailing list gives me a "Page not found" error, the forums are overrun with spam, and there are multiple high-importance bugs dating from 2008 that haven't been fixed. Given the current state of the software, I'd suggest against using this particular tool. Our existing infrastructure is already heaping more than enough work on our existing IT team, and I'd like to seem them focus on fixing our existing applications before introducing anything else -- especially something as unmaintained as this. --R -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to website+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/website/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
