What are all those LO commits doing? I don't think they're adding new features. I compared the two calc codebases recently, and I found no new features in LO.

Here are the release notes for the feature-packed 5.0, released a few weeks ago: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleaseNotes/5.0 https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleaseNotes/5.0 In addition to this, yes, refactoring is going on: https://people.gnome.org/~michael/blog/2015-08-05-under-the-hood-5-0.html https://people.gnome.org/~michael/blog/2015-08-05-under-the-...
