| Handling RFEs | This document proposes a handling for RFEs, to consolidate them (towards the planning of a new release) into so-called requirements. This allows to get a better overview about requirements people have to OpenOffice.org, and to decide, on a level which is more general than individual issues, about the focus for the next release(s). |
