Possible. however: I just think things are a little different, because I have been observing for years that secrecy is becoming increasingly Secrecy (in German i mean: "Geheimniskrämerei") here in the project, when we should actually be cultivating openness and developing it further. The, so to speak, radical [1] publicity/openness in ASF projects was once very surprising for me, in the meantime this publicity/openness, at least in AOO, is eroding more and more and this is damaging us (imho). In a free project, no one should be afraid to stand up for their opinion in public and everyone should also be prepared to face public criticism of their work (and possibly their person). Jörg [1] e.g. the fact that many ASF project members react with, consciously, annoyance when you write things to them by PM that you can also write on a mailing list, is for me an expression of this, because the tenor of this kind of reaction is also (to my mind): write as much as possible publicly and only in really exceptional cases by PM. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@openoffice.apache.org
