Hello again! As you can see I sent the message under on Friday 26 August 2005 and, 17 days later, nobody answered me yet. Is it worth waiting more time or isn’t this the right mailing list to ask questions about forms migration from Microsoft Word to Writer 1.9.113? In this last case, can anybody point out the right mailing list? (I already know that [email protected] isn’t the one). Thanks in advance,

As you can see from message under, when I asked some questions about "Forms migration from Word to Writer 1.9.113" to the "[email protected]" mailing list, I received the following suggestion from CPHennessy (an openoffice.org contributor): "For the specific mapping, the developers at [email protected] should be able to answer - remember to ask them to CC you." That's why I'm sending this e-mail, hoping that you will answer the questions under. Thanks in advance.
