Re: [tdf-discuss] New GUI for OOo/Libreoffice....

+1.  I hate everything about the MS GUI.  It adds nothing as far as I
can see.  The current OOo GUI is fine.  There's no need to fix
something that isn't broken, just to make it look sexy.  What I want
from LibreOffice is a quick, easy, usable office suite that just
works.  If we try to emulate MS we just look like "me too."

Lane & I can't be the only ones who feel this way.

If we try to make a cool sexy UI, then please, please, retain the
option to keep the UI that works.

Just my thoughts.

Thanks

John
