Hi all, Sorry for surely breaking the thread with my mobile. So, yes, Sean is on this list and already contacted me via private mail and offered help. He said that he contributed artwork to several projects in the past.
Concerning his open letter, it seems to me that he was not knowing about our efforts. For example, many of the issues he raised have been discussed here. Or, the fact that the UI is still the same doesn't take into account that also Project Renaissance (OOo) required a long time for preparation or infrastructure - but it would have been easy for us to make things worse in the short time available for the first release :-) Finally, many of the open questions can be resolved by talking about it. So I think we should think about the open letter like something the non-LibO community perceives when looking at us :-) Let's say hello to Sean and think how we can improve things together. Yesterday, I've sent him links to the kick-off and the open topics. Cheers, Christoph PS: Please, could someone forward this to the marketing list. Not that comfortable on the phone - just to avoid further rumours. Daniel Merker <[email protected]> schrieb: >Hi, > >First off, I'm not defending what he is doing.
