Entire world has gone mad

Entire world has gone mad

Over the last few years I have been trying to contact the developers of the so-called 'open source' projects with the bug reports and important feature requests.

If you have been following this blog, you should have known that response have been non-existing or abusive, perhaps because the bug reports have exposed utter lack of testing and common sense in the developers.

The last drop is the sorting in Open Office that is driving me mad: even if the column's cells contain nothing but digits and formatting is set to Number, OO still sorts as text, i.e. 100, 1000, 110, 1500, 200...

Are the OO developers for real? I would have been fired after 2-3 bugs like that made it into a formal QA. Apparently 'open source community' does not care. No wonder, they have no formal policies as to quality and there is no one overseeing their 'work' to weed out horrible developers. This is hopeless.
