Re: [libreoffice-users] 4.0.3

I certainly hope the primary motive for FOSS such as LO is not a disdain for 
MS. I personally don't care how much money MS makes. I hope the LO 
developers are motivated by a desire to produce a great product that can be 
used worldwide. Hatred usually doesn't provide a very effective motive for 
productive action.
