yes, I know that. That's why I was/am rather surprised.

I must admit these move took me by surprise: not that I couldn't read the 
signs, nor that I live under a stone, but since I got selected for the 
OpenOffice.org Summer Internship 2010 I do not have much time to follow the 
discussions on the mailing list, and mail just deleted as it comes or marked 
as To-read-later (I'm not on Summer Holidays until the end of December, so you 
can imagine I'm rather busy with the Uni, job, and OOo Internship).

I think I'm being rather patient (besides some fireworks on the Spanish mailing 
list), it was just that I couldn't resist to answer the OP... sure you 
understand ;-)
