I wrote about my intention to remove 3.4, I waited for lazy consensus, then I waited for a longer period. In fact the files have been available a little more than a month since I proposed to remove 3.4 first time). Before I finally removed the files, of course, being who I am, I made sure that they were on the backup system. I do my work professionally, use the decision systems we have in place, and dont like these kind of complains, which only purpose seems to be to highlight how good the complainers are, compared to my "bad" work. This attitude together with the lack of support to admins trying to run the servers professionally (ref. forum server), its clear to me that I am the wrong person to this job. I am aware it is easier to complain than to do anything, but I seriously wonder why the complainer did not copy the files themselves or at least came with an alternative proposal (files have been sitting SEVERAL weeks on the filesystem, so thats no reason for a complaint). its high time, we as community decide, if we want to have poorly maintained playgrounds or prof. cared for servers. The servers are now in a good state (a lot better than when I started), so I can leave the maintenance with a good conscience, step down, and let those who complain do a much better job. thanks for the lack of support. rgds jan I. > Regards, > Andrea. > > ------------------------------**------------------------------**--------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: > l10n-unsubscribe@openoffice.**apache.org<[email protected]> > For additional commands, e-mail: > [email protected].**org<[email protected]> > >
