Re: [tdf-discuss] after beta3

[Sean White <runicpaladin@gmail.com>]

lets hope not, as god as LO is it is still not ready for general release.
 The coding is not yet finished, the interface is still that clunky thing
thats been around since the 90's and is a little old and, most importantly,
a good marketing strategy is yet to appear.  The success of this sort of
product isn't in the coding or the interface though they may be attributing
factors.  Without a good marketing strategy even the best piece of software
can go unnoticed and undervalued.  An example of this is linux.  Linux as a
whole doesn't get marketed, individual distro's do, and this, from the
public eye, makes linux look like it lacks direction and purpose.   Compare
that to Windows where the underlining code isn't the best BUT it has a
killer marketing team who have made it a well advertised and in the public
domain all the time.  the better product from the public perspective is a
clear win for windows
