Re: [libreoffice-users] LibreOffice 4 - Crashes handling frames...

Hi :)  
Age is not the factor that makes a release more stable, except that it does mean you probably know 
all the problems you are likely to encounter and probably have work-arounds for them.  

The indicator that shows a release is likely to be stable is the 3rd digit.  So
4.1.2 is likely to be less stable than 
4.0.5

The trade-off is that the 4.1.x probably has a lot more features and better compatibility with 
whichever version of MS Office people are currently using.  

As more people move to MSO 2013 we will find that those people have problems with documents from 
earlier versions of MSO as well as with documents from LibreOffice/OpenOffice and all the rest.  
Those of us that haven't upgraded to MSO 2013 or 365 will find we converge and find it easier to 
share documents with each other.  

Regards from 
Tom :)

:) , as a user of LO33 who values stability more than "latest features"

A suggestion: please create a test document and send to the LO QA
department, to propose inclusion as a test document.

More test cases should improve stability by preventing poor quality
software version releases.
