I'm sorry, I don't follow. Are you referring to the post about the email forwarder, or the overall migration status wiki page? If we have any specific instructions for extension/template authors that we want them to do now, or any special hint we want to give them, then this note is a great place to get that out. Or we could do that as a 2nd announcement later. If I understand Roberto's latest note, they believe they can manage with the shutdown of the forwarding service. > /tj/ > > > On 2/29/2012 14:39, Rob Weir wrote: >> >> On Wed, Feb 29, 2012 at 2:29 PM, Rob Weir<[email protected]> wrote: >>> >>> In case you missed it on the other thread, we heard from Andrew that >>> the remaining Oracle servers that supported the legacy OOo project >>> will be shut down starting on March 15th.
