It has been like this now for more than a month. While we are on the
question of extensions, it may be worthwhile to remember that Sun/Oracle
regularly had to rebuild many of its own extensions to keep them in sync
with the latest code developments and release versions. These synched
releases were made available at the same time as the version release of
OOo. Currently, LibreOffice does not provide such synching, other than
for the bundled extensions. This means that some extensions that were
part and parcel of OOo usage for many users, will either fail to install
with current or future releases or else will fail to function correctly
with the developments integrated into the latest LibO release.

What are people's thoughts on this matter ?
