Dave, My being a committer and being competent to CTR http://ooo-site.apache.org/mail_list.html are two different things. (Plus I don't see how that page relates to the problem I am pointing at.)
I have not learned what it takes to contribute to ooo-site and I am not going to be setting aside an existing backlog of promises to learn that today. When you talk about redirecting openoffice.org to www.openoffice.org, are you talking about a redirect on the domain name or a redirect of http://openoffice.org/index.html or whatever the default page is? I see you have a later message and I'll respond to that now. - Dennis -----Original Message----- From: Dave Fisher [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, December 22, 2011 12:34 To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [WWW] Changeover is Close - Final Tasks!

You are a committer and can use the Apache CMS directly on http://ooo-site.apache.org/mail_list.html Please CTR!
