I said that the project has high barriers for contribution. That is, to
an extent, a matter of opinion. It appears that several people share
that opinion. Hence, it is an opinion worth considering. If you feel
that some of those concerns are purely a mistaken perception, then it
would be good to try to change that perception. If some of those are
more than perception, then try to correct those.

Disrupting threads aiming at solving things is the most impolite thing
I've ever seen since I joined OOo 4 years ago.
And it happened from you to my threads here and on discuss@ and on art@
several times when I posted a call for action that was trying to get
people that were willing to help to enroll in something in the last year
and a half.
I do not mind critiques if they are positive, if they are to the point,
if they try to improve and reffer to the things that thread was aiming.
But I do mind critiques about how a country is run thrown into a
discussion about what is best -say- to use, a screwdriver or scisors to
complete a certain task ?
Remember that you did the same thing as a reply to a message on discuss
in which I was looking for Art contributors ? You jumped in telling me
how bad is CVS and all stuff. That thread was compromised from the
beginning.
Here happened the same. You thrown the round about the cathedral right
in the middle of a thread that was aiming at accomplishing something in
the direction of lowing the "barriers", a thread that was going pretty
well in the action direction untill you jumped in.
Once such a message thrown in, nobody else follows that discussion and
therefore the action is compromised. And you know that very well!!
YOU DO NOT EVEN CARE ABOUT WHAT OTHERS TRY TO ACCOMPLISH. You make me
think that you *intentionally* want to disrupt any thread that is
actually going somewhere in the MP... like the implementation of the
wiki on the OOo MP.
You at least could've followed the nettiquette and start a new thread.
But no. You like to cut any attempt from the project members to do
something. No positive observation, suggestion, nothing. Just
accusations and critiques that HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH WHAT WAS DISCUSSED
IN THAT THREAD.
How is this improving the project ?
Not to mention that you say the same things for some time now.
Literally, EVERYBODY knows what you have to say. The difference between
one such post of yours and another is only that you hunt for new
evidence about what you say. But the idea is the same. This is not an
excuse to not create threads of your own on that and not destroy the
efforts of others.
I am sure that a thread like: "What went wrong this week" along with
another named "What went well this week" would be a more helpfull way of
contributing and encouraging contributors to the project for instance.
Otherwise, you are breaking the basic rules of participating in a
project on the web and definitely you are rendering a lucrative list
useless which does not help OOo improve and could be seen by others as
an attempt to sabotage things.

P.S. I broke a principle I established that I would not let myself
caught again in such discussions and I am sorry. Will try harder to not
respond anymore in such things. Say what you want. All I want is that
things go in the action direction and leave behind the sterile discussions.
A chinese saying sounds like this: THE TRUE MASTER PROVES HIMSELF WHEN
THE RESOURCES ARE LACKING.
People were accomplishing marvelous things in this project way before
you enrolled or started this kind of critiques.
Best,
Daniel.
