<pre>- Reportdesign corresponds to legacy reports according to README
<a href="https://opengrok.libreoffice.org/xref/core/reportdesign/README?r=fe95086e">https://opengrok.libreoffice.org/xref/core/reportdesign/README?r=fe95086e</a>
- Reportbuilder README indicates:
Report Builder, or "new style reports", replacing legacy reports (in
reportdesign).
Started as an extension called "Sun Report Builder" then "Oracle Report
Builder"
[<a href="http://extensions.services.openoffice.org/project/reportdesign">http://extensions.services.openoffice.org/project/reportdesign</a>],
which got bundled with LibreOffice, then converted to an optionally
installable
(but installed by default) part of LibreOffice proper.
Uses the Pentaho Reporting Flow Engine of Pentaho BI
[<a href="http://www.pentaho.com/">http://www.pentaho.com/</a>].

bz_status_NEW "
title="NEW - upgrade our jfreereport libraries"
href="show_bug.cgi?id=67832">https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=67832</a> shows that Pentaho
and JFreeReports which are related to Reportbuilder haven't been updated since
about 6 years.
1) for Reportbuilder, is this possible to debug this if the pb is in external
sources? (or perhaps already fixed in these!)
Knowing that these seem difficult to update and/or don't seem to interest
enough people to give it a try, how can we advance here?
2) Reportdesign has been considered legacy since several years, could it be
removed?
(Goal: simplify LO code)</pre>
