Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: Downloading the new LO

Hi :)
I have made myself very unpopular on various lists here arguing points like that.  It might be 
worth trying to point it out to the websites list.  Better still if you can get involved and help 
design an improvement.  Complaining and grumbling really doesn't get very far but actively helping 
sometimes does.
Regards from
Tom :)
