Sorry for my absence time for OOo has been nill for me since
September. I was catching up on my OOo mail, and I didn't see the
resulst of the plone poll which I beleive ended on 12/5 about moving
the list. Is it moving?
I don't want to miss the subscription period.
Welcome back, Peter! We've missed you.
The results of the poll to decide whether the "authors" mailing list
should move to the oooauthors.org server was 13 votes in favor and 5
votes against.
The next step is to start getting the migration issues worked out
(e.g., list archives). AFAIK, no one has taken the time to do much
work on this, as it wasn't an urgent topic and the holiday season
distracted us.
At the time of the poll, we noted that if after the holidays the
majority still liked the idea of moving, we can move then. So,
sometime in the new year, we'll be revisiting the question of moving.
News will be posted on the front page of the English-language section
of the website, as well as being mentioned on this list.
Cheers, Jean
Being essentially a lurker, I abstain from expressing
any opinion on the move.
Please summarize the reasons for moving this list.
Please make the transition as easy as possible
from the end user's point of view.
Note that IMHO re-registering is reasonable.
Thanks,
David
