If your gonna kill the java parts of LO for mac whats the advantage of keeping it for other os's. Without the java bits is it possible we can gain further performance improvements and over all size reduction?

Hi guys,

        So:

        Java has been dropped, too, but there is slightly more hope for
        Java users: the first time you try to run a Java app, the OS
        will offer to download and install one for you. This is helpful
        but not ideal – so, for instance, to offer an entirely
        hypothetical scenario, if you had just installed LibreOffice and
        written a few hundred words of copy, you wouldn't be able to
        save your work if no JVM had been installed when the program was
        launched. Apparently the file-saving functionality is one of the
        Java bits and LibreOffice needs a restart for saving to work.
        Who knew?

        Looks bad; it seems we screwed over Liam; hopefully he could copy/paste
out of it, but ...

        Is this really so ? it'd be great to isolate and kill whatever Java is
required to save anything on Mac ?

        Thoughts ?

                Michael.
