Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: 64 bit

Clearly the point didn't come across as I hoped. What I'm saying is that 
our resources are stretched incredibly thin and IMHO this is a waste of 
time expending so much energy discussing the potential benefits when we 
have 5,000 or so open bugs that need addressed, probably at least a 
couple thousand of which are much more important than a 64 bit version 
on Windows. That being said, if you want to continue listing all the 
reasons why we need one to anyone who will listen - feel free to do so, 
I just personally don't think it's very productive or conducive to the 
best LibreOffice experience. I would hope that some people who have 
taken so long listing all the great benefits of 64 bit would spend an 
equal amount of time triaging the 1,200 bugs that are currently 
UNCONFIRMED and need testers - the # of Windows bugs in particular in 
that state is disturbing as most users are Windows users.


All the best,
Joel
