Re: [libreoffice-marketing] Re: 3.6 Features page check

Hi :)
No, i really am happy to see so many new features.  It's always the way.  MSO also has tons of new 
features but it has quite a few years between releases compared to LO's 6months or so.  Personally 
i find LO is far more sophisticated in the way it handles the simple things i need it for.  I 
suspect the rapid development out-strips MS's by quite a long way even tho it's not always things 
i'm ever likely to use.  Other people might and might be looking for something with that sort of 
functionality.  We are all different and have different requirements.  

Also, apart from me, the attitude is very positive, friendly and there is a "can do" attitude that 
fits well with the underlaying assumption that even new users can learn new tricks.  These are 
things that put TDF on a plateau far above any competitors.  People that haven't yet tried LO are 
missing out.  
Regards from
Tom :)

Tom, is it really necessary for you to be so bloody sarcastic and
negative every time someone mentions features and new releases? I
don't think so. What's your problem anyway?
