OpenOffice.org User Feedback Extension Beta is Available

Hello,
as you might know, a data driven approach [1] is an essential part of the Renaissance Project [2]. On element is the User Feedback Program [3]. It collects anonymously data about how OpenOffice.org is used. This information is used to better understand how people use OpenOffice.org.
Especially with regards to the user interface.

The extension is now available for public beta testing
http://extensions.services.openoffice.org/project/OOo_User_Feedback

How can you support the Renaissance Project?

This is simple.

Download the extension, give it a try. Provide Feedback.

Please be aware, that the use of these Beta builds has risks associated with it. Don't use them with production data, as data loss and other scary things can occur. The OpenOffice.org User Feedback Extension Beta runs as an extension for OpenOffice.org 3.0.1 or 3.1

Please note that the OpenOffice.org User Feedback Extension requires a Developer Snapshot of OpenOffice.org 3.0.1 [4] or 3.1 [5].

A list of known Bugs can be found here [6]


Thanks for your support,
Christian
