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

I don't won't to make it seaxier. I wan't to make it more usuable, easier to
use.
It works, ok, but if it works we can make it better. Only if it works.

If we live along in this world to rest on something that works, we never had
fast internet/ big cinemas/ or even technology at all. Don't close your eyes
for improvements.
And i think it goes a lot of time before we have a new GUI ;)


P.S.: The best GUI you can have, is the one you can choose. (i hope this
answer your last thought)
