Hi !

        I think the most import is that there are several kinds of users, at
least in OpenOffice.org and LibreOffice. Some of them use some features
as statistical funcions; other use pivot table or macros ... as examples
in CALC. Same in Writer, Base, Impress and others. Exceptions users use
a lot of features at the same time ... but is so important to have "on
hand" all that features because if you need one of them you only have to
click for using... that is great at least for me ... I didn't use all
the features but I 've used much of them in some different moments since
I use Open Sourse office suites.

Regards,

Jorge Rodríguez

Hi :)

No, i think the point is that of that same 20% not everyone uses all of that 
20%.  Yes people use different features from each other but all the features 
they use tend to be fairly basic ones, eg not macros and almost none of the 
formulas in Excel.  It's all very imprecise of course.

A paragraph that points to pcmag.com's article about "100 Essential Tips
for Microsoft Office 2010" list the following "rule":
[quote]
For most of the world, Microsoft Office 2010 follows the 80/20 rule: 80%
of the people use about 20% of the functionality.
[unquote]

That 80% that is not used by the 80% of the users is what MSO advertised
a few years ago that these were the most needed options by users and
were most of the advertised "thousands of new functions added" for their
next upgraded product. I was told once that of that 80% not used, about
90% of that figured features are used by only 1% of MSO's users. Can
anyone spell B.L.O.A.T.

the fact is that the 20% used isn't the same for everybody, for example I use 
function from 1 to 20 and my friend from 3 to 23 and another friend from 6 to 
26, so in the world every function is used by some 20%, this is the why libo' 
isn't so diffused and used, becouse you can easily find something that you use 
in office that isn't present in libo'. :-))

I believe that the 80/20 is somewhat misleading. As noted earlier must
use approximately 20% but not the same 20%.

I would estimate that somewhere around 50% of all the features are used
reasonably often and the rest are rarely used. The used features are not
necessarily bloat but should be available either with the package or as
extensions. The selection of which are included is probably best left to
the programmers. I suspect some are easier to added as extensions while
others are best included in the package.
