letting them dissipate into the aether. Following up threads with
action points would be a start.
Sadly, the fact is that things WON'T change. Ask anyone at the website
list ([EMAIL PROTECTED]). I tried to get the front-page image changed many
times, all to no avail. I tried make simple changes to the front page. But
nothing. I tried to make very MINOR edits to the contribution page (which
is supposed to be my project) but nope, nothing. Back in January I tried
to improve the usability of the front page. There was lots of discussion,
lots of work done. It's something that should have been done in a week.
Today, two months later, there's nothing.
Everyone on [EMAIL PROTECTED] were invited to participate to implement the
new
home page designs. For the last two months, a small group of people have
participated, including myself. I take exception to you saying that
nothing has happened. It trivialises my and my fellow team members'
efforts. Especially Maarten and Christian who have done most of the
graphic design and resolving techinical issues with the SourceCast CMS.
As to doing it in a week, some of us have a life outside the hours
freely given to OpenOffice.org.
I'm tired of all the whinging and negativity. It certainly is not
conducive to continuing to contribute here.
Enjoy your Easter and don't eat too many easter eggs.
Regards
Jacqueline
