This has nothing to do with Zen or Dennis. We had two threads going at once last week about Marketing. I agree that they both reached the same general conclusion. I felt they both went well and did not want to comment through my neck and shoulder pain plus pain killer haze to comment. Feeling better today. i still don't see a huge need for a ML split, but I am not against it. > The names listed are just those who volunteered to moderate.

I don't want a website ML - I am -1000 on it. I think that the Marketing team will have a much greater interest in the OOo website than you seem to think.
