Re: [libreoffice-users] Unable to start my newly installed LibreOffice v3.5.2 programs.

Hi :)

I think the previous policy, of showing the latest release in both branches, was much better.  It 
was a tad confusing but the current answer (of only showing the latest in only the development 
branch) is creating a lot of problems and leading people to abandon LO "until it's ready".

That is a question many of us wonder.

It is not ready for business, but if a business user sees this, he/she might download it and try it 
instead of looking closer for the other possible downloads and such.

Many of us do not like the new download system that "decides for you" which version is displayed 
for you to download, and how much work it is to download any other version.

But I am not on that list of people who decide such things.
