In this post, which is now over a year old, Eric states that he was
AbiWord's only real user. In keeping with the dogfood spirit, I would be
interested in how many people who read this list actually use AbiWord for
their daily wordprocessing tasks. I know that I use it every day.
Additionally, if you don't use it, or if you do, what is the one bug that
is most hindering your dogfood consumption?
For me, it's lack of page numbering. Handwritten page numbers never look
good on your paper.
