Description torti.tommaso 2011-03-22 14:27:05 UTC
1) create a csv file with this content: 
ID;NAME
1;a

2) open it with open office (i tried with version 3.3.0 and 3.1.0 in Mac OS X version 10.5.8): you can see Open Office cannot recognize it as a csv file.

Notes: 
* if the first column is named 'Id' or 'id' all is ok. Only the string 'ID' in upper case is wrong.

Hey, cool ;) Apparently the sequence
ID;N
is taken as a signature for SYLK files and that filter is used instead.
It also helps to use , comma as the field separator instead of ; semicolon.

getting rid of value "enhancement" for field "severity".
For enhancement the field "issue type" shall be used.
