(for example currently that would be OOo 3.3) - set the priority to "P2" - set keyword "odf_validation" - assign an invalid sample document written by OOo - always put "mib" on CC: - if the issue is in Writer, assign it to "od" and put "mst" on CC: - if the issue is in Calc, assign it to "er" and put "nn" on CC: - if the issue is in Draw/Impress, assign it to "cl" - if the issue is in common framework functionality (e.g. metadata or packaging) assign it to "mst" of course we also fix lots of issues where the reporter has not done these things, but keeping these guidelines in mind will minimize the risk that such an issue will fall through the cracks. regards, michael -- Michael Stahl mailto:michael.stahl@sun.com http://www.sun.de OpenOffice.org/StarOffice Writer Sun Microsystems GmbH Nagelsweg 55, 20097 Hamburg, Germany ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Sitz der Gesellschaft: Sun Microsystems GmbH, Sonnenallee 1, D-85551 Kirchheim-Heimstetten Amtsgericht München: HRB 161028 Geschäftsführer: Jürgen Kunz
