With dutch as my native language, I would like to contribute where I
can. Even to the NL native language project. We have corresponded
about that. I would expect the same thing from you on issues that
matter to others. Can you please stick to constructive comment? If
you do not care about the EEs in or out, do not join the discussion.
Thank you for being coöperative Cor.
I did contribute with a short, but not to misinterprete comment. Sorry
you could not take it seriously.
Furthermore I really wonder what happened, maybe I even should say
'went wrong'. Your entrance, about a week ago, was very nice, with
something nice that can be used.
After four or so posts with questions and remarks, as reaction to your
banners, you seem to have a sort of lost your way. (Can be, it took
myself many many months to have a little bit the feeling where what
was going on in the community.)
I did give a short advice on your request. Some others did.
Then you wanted to take the whole marketing project onto your
shoulders, bringing it to a higher level. OK, might be a bit
ambitious, however reading some remarks about your background, there
meight be some change for succes.
But as days went by, I've seen a rappidly changing picture. Starting
with contributing, ending up with mostly taking about what should be
done, a/o how others should contribute.
Please do not mistake that trying to have a sensible discussion about
issues that are important to not just me but to others to is not telling
anybody what to do. If you want, I can make a website, a program, a
banner, DTP for print or anything else that could be needed for marketing.
But I have seen very strange reactions to only giving an oppinion. And
that is why I did not do anything anymore but try to get people to
react in order to have an idea why this list goes wrong when a post
about fundamentals to markerting is made.
I do not take offend on that, however it's just not the way it works,
IHO.
That is your oppinion Cor, you are entitled to have one. As am I. So if
you do not agree, Do not comment unless you want to contribute to
obtaining a result.
As for now, I may not have done the major part of he work here, but I
sure asked many times if there was anything I could do. And than came
reactions from others that it is not clear at all what should be done.
I do not claim to know everything, but what I do know is what needs to
be done to get marketing for OOo not only a 'einzel' effort. As do
others I met here.
So your future contributions at the Dutch-speaking language project,
will indeed be welcomed. There's more than enough to do.
I have no doubt about that. However, as you pointed out yourselve, I
rather start in the center. t.i. international strategy.
Regards,
Steven P.
