Hi :) +1 Also, allowing threads (such as the one about job-description for marketing contacts) to split out to other, more relevant, lists is great and seems to be working fine.
It's inevitable that discussions take place all over the place because there is a lot of energy and excitement in TDF and about LibreOffice. Inevitably that is going to "ruffle some feathers" but it's not necessarily a bad thing. This sort of discussion to un-ruffle accidental issues usually goes well here too. It's fairly clear there is no deliberate hiding going on and clearly no-one here has bad intentions.
