Re: [libreoffice-marketing] Re: Question regarding Microsoft Store download of Vanilla Libreoffice

Howdy,

Well, there is a connection but I understand your point.

The CIB announcement is clear when it comes to support with the line:
"TDF branded version relies on the global LibreOffice community for
assistance and help"

So ask.libreOffice.org for help and assistance but my question is about
online updates and security patches for the TDF branded package and
particularly if the customer is running Win 10 S.

Anyway, I'll go ahead and find an email address for CIB and try that,
thanks.

Drew

PS - I'll bring back whatever I learn to this thread because I can't be the
only one wondering.
