I can't find a violation by this post. The admin statement form 12-18-2007 states, that Tine is now official part of eGroupWare. Later on there is a paragraph, that we sould not post on the users list and so on as long we are not part. So where is the problem? cu conny > Please do not post any > additional news items regarding tine until it has been cleared by at > least one admin.
