Hi Petr, all,

Thanks for your detailed (mostly skipped below) view, Petr. I simply 
agree. It's much to easy to say that this has more or less bugs.

I do most work with beta's RC's and once the 3.5.0 is out, I'll switch 
back to doing most work with the builds from master...
Sometimes costs me a few hours testing/hunting bugs, but is mostly 
perfect for my type of work (good mixture of medium complex/size 
docs/sheets/presentations)

Yes, it grows, but slowly in my impression.
Our biggest problem is that the developers seem to be smarter in 
attracting more hands ;-)

Well, any time provided not too much :-)
But it's good to discuss the situation regularly to keep sharp on it!

thanks all and looking forward to our great 3.5.0,
