I wanted to use the wysiwyg facilities of LibreOffice - whetjher I
"should" use a different FOSS or not is irrelevent, these are straight
forward things that are supposed to work in LibreOffice surely that is
what is important here for beta reports?

With that knid of approach Oracle or some other corporation will just
waltz opver LO.

I have had this experience - isn't that what matters?

Not questioning me about why use LO to do something that it should do?

You yourself asked me to save in .odt format or was that a different Andy?

I am really worried that the whole culture of this kind of project is
too inbred.
There is no feeling that the Users' problems or experiences actually
really matter.

I have had at least five significant problems - and this is what I get
- "use some other FOSS"

Where is that going to get things?
