If in doubt use Still.

Hi :)
The "Fresh" has new features and 'better' compatibility with MS Office
OOXML formats and more "bug fixes" but all that sometimes means that
unexpected features sometimes go a bit wonky.

Being "a bit wonky" or out-right not working is not the same as "buggy" or
unstable or anything like that.  Every version has been fully tested to
ensure they are stable - but that doesn't mean that everything works
flawlessly.

For myself i try to always use the latest Fresh but i put all my colleagues
and clients on "Still".  That way i know the types of issues they might run
into without having to deal with unexpected surprises.

It is not a case of "which is better" but rather a question of what suits
the type of scenario better.

It is not even still, maybe bottled? :-)

Hello to the LibreOffice team and the Document Foundation.

Which of these versions of today's LibreOffice goes into the majority of
Linux distributions: Fresh or Still? What about their repositories? Or
does
it depend on the distro?

What's the most important difference between these two?

Thanks for your info.

Yours sincerely,
from Colin Omara.
