Nothing causes more pain, frustration and disappointment than unfulfilled expectations. I expect that master is always green. My definition of green is: $ make check with --enable-werror is passing on all three platforms: Linux|Mac|Win 64. I thought that the same expectation is _consensus_ among core LO developers. My definition of core LO developers: payed developer who is working full time on LO. So as master was broken again (my definition of broken is compiling and/or linking was broken on some platforms, not to mention passing of tests) I entered #libreoffice-dev channel on freenode and asked: _david_: "Master is broken again. Is that too much to expect that the master is green?" One of LO core developers (see my definition of "core developers" above) answered: _lo_core_developer_: "Yes, it's. The purpose of master is to be always broken." That's boolshit, of course. Fix that mindset first, before saying or doing anything else. _______________________________________________ LibreOffice mailing list LibreOffice@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice
