make me think that fragmentation, while of course allowed by the
license, should be discouraged when it comes to functionality; I'm not
questioning desktop integration or branding, but I'd like to know why
distributions feel they have to make changes to functionality...
Because bugs should be fixed ASAP, not when you think one wants to release.
:-) I guess we fight for this basic right.
On the other hand, I think Andrea is right - my hope is that lots of
the distributions on every platform will converge more onto the
LibreOffice core over time, and require fewer patches, and (perhaps) a
few more configuration options.
HTH,
