Re: [libreoffice-users] desktop-integration

Hi :)
WOW!! :D  Top marks to the devs that were involved with this and many thanks to Petr for letting us 
know too.  

I think it would be good to publicise this a bit more widely.  Surprisingly few people ever seem to 
read Readmes.  it's a good place to start obviously.  

Perhaps someone could pass it on to the Marketing List to nominate it as an entry in the next 
announcement?  I don't think there is a formal process for that yet but it might help the person 
that puts the announcements together.  There's always a list of things that could go in but it's 
tricky to pick on the 1 or 2 'killer' features.  

Regards from
Tom :)
