Re: [libreoffice-marketing] Re: Notebookbar out of Experimental

First, hello Nige and welcome to the community :-)

On the topic of the Notebookbar being default, I personally think that's
not something we should do on the first release after making it
non-experimental. If anything, we could have it available to everyone in
6.2, 6.3 and 6.4, then consider it as default for 7.0...

That would be good, but it MUST be easy to switch between them. If
someone chooses the Notebookbar but then wants to go back to the
"classic" interface, it must be extremely obvious. Otherwise the amount
of complaints we'll get on social media, info@ and download@ will go
through the roof :-)

Also, a big thanks as always to Andreas K for working on this.
