Anyone have anecdotal evidence one way or the other here? Best, --R (*light goes on* -- I could just ask all of the people who post questions/bug reports, etc.. to the dev list why they chose to use this particular list. Perhaps there's some oddball reason like "I found it listed on website XYZ") _______________________________________________ LibreOffice mailing list LibreOffice@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice
