The warning can't be made any stronger. Thanks Jaroslav. Honest and to the
point, Support that is expected from OpenSource. I will be removing
koffice from my pc soonest.
Just for clarification - I've been running the betas for quite some time. I
don't think there's any problem with having it installed, and of course bug-
reporting is always helpful. It's just that there are some quite severe bugs
still to resolve. IOW, if you want to help and have time to, go on using
Rex's build, but don't expect it to be productions-system-perfect. It won't
be.
As you say, it's fair and honest that the devs have made that statement.
