<div dir="ltr">Hi Sam, You forgot to hit "Reply All" ;) We had such discussion on the mailing list, Ubuntu Forum and I'm sure on IRC as well. Two major points that we need to consider before anything else: A- Lubuntu is meant for Old Machines MORE than anything else and Lubuntu Default Applications MUST remain as light as possible. B- Changing the current default application is a long process and must be done very carefully. We already discussed that many times :) Above all, as long as Lubuntu is using the same base and repositories of Ubuntu then it is UP TO the users to install whatever they like and prefer to use. With Linux, there is nothing called "you have to use this and stick to that". Also, it is impossible to please everyone. Sorry if the current default list of applications don't really meet your needs but think about how great Lubuntu is and how fast and stable. It's few steps away to install whatever you like :) Now, with 12.04, you have yet another way to install any application using Lubuntu Software Center. Thanks! <div class="gmail_quote">On Fri, Mar 23, 2012 at 5:52 PM, Sam Sebastian <<a href="mailto:sebastiansam55@gmail.com">sebastiansam55@gmail.com</a>> wrote: <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"> i don't understand why, besides the system reqs its not installed, i think that LibreOffice is at least 50times better than Abiword, i've had multiple problems with AbiWord, i've had it crash when resizing the text of less than 3 pages, i think taht the interface for the LibreOffice is much cleaner too. Not that i have any idea what i'm talking about but i think that instead of abiword we should use just the writer of the LIbreOffice <div class="gmail_quote"><div><div class="h5">On Tue, Mar 20, 2012 at 2:13 PM, Ali Linx (amjjawad) <<a href="mailto:amjjawad@gmail.com" target="_blank">amjjawad@gmail.com</a>> wrote: </div> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div><div class="h5"> <div dir="ltr">Hello Nasir, Lubuntu 11.10 by default does not have LibreOffice.
