Fair enough -- if there is a legitimate concern of spam, best to address the problem as early as possible. > For testing, #2 is what I have just enabled in Etherpad, and populated a > couple of predefined pads at the same time, to see if we can work with it. > > Anyone has some more insight into that topic, and maybe some hands-on > experience? I don't have experience with spam on Etherpad, but we have been using Etherpad for minutes of the QA Team meetings. It's handy for people to be able to see the minutes as I type them out and for them to make small corrections when the audio on the call is garbled, I misspell a name, etc. As long as all of the people who want to join-in on the QA call can use the pad, then #2 is fine with me. --R -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: website+unsubscr...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/website/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
