OpenOffice.org 3.0 Beta feedback

The intention of this page is to collect the beta feedback from the various mailing list, forums, press, issues and come at the end to a prioritized list of most import bugs we need to fix for 3.0.

Also this is the chance to collect complains of most missed features so that we are able to develop a roadmap for the upcoming releases.

good stuff

I wonder if you might like to include on your marketing page OOo 3.0's concerted attempt to finally get word count right. This has been a major bugbear for professional writers, and work is underway right now to get OOo to mimic MS Word in this regard. This is a huge deal for a significant portion of your user base, and a major success worth trumpeting.

The master bug for this issue is 80815, if you're interested.
