Prevent the infobar from asking for more money or involvement at startup.
Description
Starting in LibreOffice 6.2, every 90 days you will be asked either for more money or to increase your involvement. This configuration/settings extension disables that timer, so that you never see these infobar notices

ReleaseNotes:
Since it was reverted in 6.1 stable, this extension is only necessary in LO 6.2 and up.
This version includes disabling the tip of the day - introduced in LO 6.3.
[This 6.3.1 minor release just removes the unused writer.xcu file. Thanks Mike for noticing this. It didn't actually change any font info.]

Excellent solution to a problem that should have never happened.

Is changing Writer fonts an intended effect of the extension?
Since this extension sets LastTime*Shown to MAXINT32, it doesn't need the oor:finalized, which is why it was crashing in 6.1.0-6.1.2. The finalized flag only needs when one sets these values to 0.

It doesn't actually change writer fonts (since the file isn't mentioned in the manifest). However, you are right that writer.xcu doesn't belong in there. So I made version 6.3.1 without that file. No need for existing users to re-download it though.

The title of this extension is a bit provocative. Please rename to "Block the donation/involvement infobar", or the like. Thank you!

No, it is not in the least bit "provocative." Why would you even assume that? You liberals need to stop taking offense at everything.

IMHO the title is perfectly appropriate, inasmuch as such an extension shouldn't have become necessary in the first place.
