Hi all,
Excuse me - just to ask: What is the idea of polishing F12 while F10 and F11 have fairly low reliability (in working with OpenOffice for example).
Today I tried to do some a little bit more complex operations with OpenOffice Writer under F11 and 'went in the Dimension-X'.
Regards,
Christo Petkov

I don't think there is much to discuss, though.
Yes, the missing abrt icon is a problem. But the fact that not every
item in Places and System has an icon was our design decision, and is
not a bug in any way.
I don't see how those 'missing' icons could even theoretically be
considered a release blocker. They don't cause a problem in any way.

I dunno, I didn't write those criteria. I guess the idea was to have
some kind of standard for final desktop polish. I guess my
question was
more or less what you answered above - whether this list knows why this
is in the release criteria, and whether you'd agree with it.
Though looking at it again, it's a 'should' not a 'must' issue. Which by
my understanding means it's not intended to actually be a blocker (only
things on the release criteria page with the keyword 'must' indicate
things we'd block for).

I was not involved in the creation of these criteria. It is obviously a
bit unfortunate if design decisions like the one to drop some icons from
the menus are not reflected in them.
As long as everybody is reasonable about this, it is not a big
problem.

We'll be looking to refresh the release criteria in the near future.
I'm not sure exactly when we'll kick that off, but we'll be sure to
solicit feedback from all groups.
Thanks,
James

For a start, none of the people working on GNOME desktop polish are
OpenOffice.org coders. Your question is roughly akin to asking a house
painter why he isn't performing surgery on children; that just ain't how
things are organized.

Hello Christo,
could you tell us the reported bugs' numbers, please?
Btw, what do you mean by 'went in the Dimension-X'? something like

I am pretty sure our OOo maintainer (who is also a top upstream
developer) *is* subscribed to this list (as he should be). With this
being said, I acknowledge 'went in the Dimension-X' is totally useless
as a bug report.
