With the release approaching, I see the need for a second mailing list in Italian: we now have ooo-it-utenti (users) and I would like to add ooo-it-progetto (project).

I'm thus asking for creation of this new mailing list in 72 hours, and assuming consensus if nobody objects.

The two lists are completely different in scope:
- the users list is for peer-to-peer support, announcements, generic discussions and has been functioning correctly since December, with traffic varying according to the topics being discussed) - the project list is for volunteers only (not for users) and it is used to coordinate activities, especially QA and localization; it will produce very high traffic from now to the release time, and then occasional traffic until we are back in a pre-release period or a scheduled localization/QA sprint. I expect the traffic to be too high for people on the users list, so I would prefer to use a separate list; of course, we will inform users any time an activity (such as the OpenOffice 3.4 localization or QA cycle) begins on the "project" lists.

Regards,
  Andrea.
