Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: docx format troubles

Hi :)
I really like that idea a lot but i have been told it's unfeasable.  Even if we could clearly 
identify that 20% it would be tricky to slim the apps down that way. 
Regards from
Tom :)

I hope this isn't hijacking the thread, and if so, /please /say so, and I'll repost this in a new 
thread.

The fact that 20% of the features of MS Office (and by implication, LO and OO.o) used almost 
exclusively by some 80% of the users suggests to me that OO.o should identify that 20% of features 
and modularize OO.o or LO or what have you to include that 20% and make the other 80% of the 
features available as extensions.

I'd like comments on this idea.
