When will OpenOffice.org 2.0 officially come out?When will OpenOffice.org 2.0 officially come out?Posted Aug 31, 2005 4:01 UTC (Wed) by yodermk (subscriber, #3803)In reply to: When will OpenOffice.org 2.0 officially come out? by dwheeler Parent article: The second OpenOffice.org 2.0 beta
I wouldn't say FC4 is a shining example of OOo + gcj. At best, it's an encouraging preview release. My attempts to do anything productive with the Base application fell flat pretty quick when I tried to edit the structure of a table and add a primary key -- it simply couldn't be done. Frankly, I'm surprised they shipped it in its current state.
I hope that OOo 2 final + gcj 4.1, hopefully combined in FC5, will finally give us a production ready system.

Don't be. That's what FC is for - finding bugs.

That's what FC is for - finding bugs. I think many, including those in the Fedora Project, would agree with your statement: Fedora Myths.

I'm not sure if you meant "would" or "wouldn't" here, but it looks like the latter, after reviewing that link. I hope that you aren't suggesting that this sentence:
"It is also a proving ground for new technology that may eventually make its way into Red Hat products."
Means something other than using FC to find bugs. I'm not sure how a technology becomes "proven" without being tested and without bugs being found and squashed...
This doesn't necessarily mean one cannot use FC on production machines. I do so daily (with various degrees of success, depending on the task).

The point I was trying to make was that the purpose of Fedora is not solely to find bugs for Red Hat, but that is how I interpreted your original statement.
