Digg.com and thanks!

I found about his on digg.com first:
http://digg.com/linux_unix/KOffice_1.5.2_Released
So you can also digg the story there so more people will know about this.

Anyways, thank you very much for working on KOffice. It is simply great office suite. I've switched from OOo and all is quite well. There are some incompatibilities with ODF files but generaly it is OK.

This can't be emphasized enough: You can help to improve KOffice, if you file bug reports about the ODF incompabilities, which are not in bugs.kde.org yet. At best, you attach also a minimal test file.

The time of the developers is limited. If our users help us to find the bugs and describe the way to reproduce them, we're able to fix the issues a lot faster. Just do it! ;-)

Now, there is a method to find crashes

* you write a script which fetches random files in the specific format from google, import them to you application until it crashes. Then you found a file which crashes the program.

Good idea, but I guess it is more useful to find "simple" scenarios where an application fails. That aids debugging a lot.

Well, truth to be told, I expected faster reaction to incompatibility-with-OOo bug# 115273 <https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=115273>. I have even reinstalled both KOffice and OOo to update report for newer version, but I still not get anybody interested. Oh well.
