Re: [xwiki-users] Office import error

Asiri : With such a statement, one might think that it is difficult to setup in order to need commercial support :-) Guillaume : As much as I agree that user feedback is crucial to a project's quality, 2.1.1 is a production release not a rc or beta so such problems should not occur. As we are looking for an immediate usage, I can't see myself going to management with such visible features not working. Nevertheless, in the next few days I will document the encountered problems on your bug tracking system.
