Of course, but do notice that with open source software, if one has the motivation, it's all right there in black and white code. Doesn't work for you? change it. Don't know what's going on? It's because you haven't looked - you're not prevented from doing anything.
That's assuming you can't get in touch with the person who wrote it. Which you probably could quite easily do.
- sokoloff 9y agoYes; I've sent patches to open source projects before. When I'm in "accomplish a task using a spreadsheet" or "write a document/prepare a presentation" mode, I'm probably not going to be inclined (nor have time) to go rathole on changing the source to the office application, recompiling, testing, doing my original task, and submitting a patch.
