In OpenOffice.org 1.0, what I remember was a long wait until OpenOffice.org came up, so that was necessary at the time. But now, it takes ~1 second for me to go to start screen, and ~2 seconds to go directly to Writer. This is on a relatively old machine, so I think the startup is good enough to remove the splash screen completely. I have not seen meaningful messages from splash screen for a while. Sometimes bunch of small text is written at the bottom which disappear fast, but that is rare and not quite readable. Maybe Michael W can give a better description about that. If there is no good reason to keep that, it would be better to drop it completely. Let's hear other's opinions, and then I will create a separate issue for completely dropping the splash screen. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
