Xisco, In the 6.0 release notes there was no base work done.

In the 6.1 notes it seems that most of the work was about the transition to
firebird.

So still, I think we are a long, long way from fixing the many bugs in base
that I and others have reported here.  

In fact I suspect that this transition to firebird will create many new bugs
and problems and will break many working databases.

So I think my point stands that these bugs reported here are not being worked
on.

Personally, I am struggling to learn C++ better, but it's a steep hill for me.  

I am also disheartened at the serious lack of comments in the LO c++ code to
help those unfamiliar with it, ... as called for even by no less than Bjorne
Stroustroup in his book on C++ where he makes specific recommendations as to
commenting guidelines.  

One of the first things I think we need to work on, and I mean *I want to work
on*, is to simply read the code and add enough comments so that others don't
have to fully read the code to see what is going on.  .. in an effort to speed
the ability to understand the code.

Thanks for your thoughts.
