Subject: Spam Link Removal Request


Dear OpenOffice.org Team,

I am writing to bring to your attention a critical issue regarding spam
activities associated with your platform. It has come to my attention that
certain individuals are engaging in spam practices on OpenOffice.org,
tarnishing the reputation of your platform and compromising user
experience. I kindly request that you take immediate action to address this
matter and preserve the integrity and credibility of OpenOffice.org.

The link is: https://templates.openoffice.org/en/template/may-2023-calendar

Spam activities not only undermine the trust of users but also pose a
significant threat to the overall quality of content and the reputation of
your platform. It is crucial to maintain a clean and reliable environment
that promotes genuine collaboration and discourages deceptive practices.

To combat this issue effectively, I strongly urge you to implement the
following measures:

Strengthen your content moderation processes to proactively identify and
remove spam-related content from OpenOffice.org.
Conduct regular reviews of user accounts and take appropriate action
against those found engaged in spam activities.
Enhance your community guidelines and policies to explicitly prohibit spam
practices, including the creation and distribution of spam content.
By taking these actions, you can demonstrate your commitment to providing a
trustworthy platform for users, where they can access high-quality and
genuine resources.

As a user and supporter of OpenOffice.org, I believe it is essential for
platforms like yours to maintain a strong stance against spam practices. By
actively addressing spam activities and safeguarding the platform against
deceptive practices, you can create an environment that fosters
productivity, collaboration, and user satisfaction.

Thank you for your attention to this matter. I trust that you will address
this issue promptly and take the necessary steps to prevent the occurrence
of spam activities on OpenOffice.org.

Sincerely,
Melih


Can you please identify the specific pages where you claim to see spam?

I cannot see any spam at the link you provided to a May 2023 calendar 
template. The page does show a number of links to other websites 
offering a similar calendar in other formats, all of which appear to be 
genuine, with the exception of a couple of invalid/broken links. Plus 
the "Download Template" link is genuine.


Thank you for your advice regarding combating spam, but almost all of 
the measures you propose are already in place for 
https://templates.openoffice.org/

Ignoring the fact that the spam message itself should never have been

Your issue was answered almost immediately by Matthias Seidel, but since
you are not subscribed to this list you might have missed that reply.

Please see the list archive here:
https://lists.apache.org/list?users@openoffice.apache.org:lte=1M:java

Basically, you need to install the 32 bit edition of JRE

Lisa. Does simply clicking through the two steps of the wizard, instead

Re: File [not] deleted

[Moderator]

Hi Adrian,

Can we please keep this ON-LIST.

IF you are so so fully aware of these things, why do you still believe
that the software should be expected to continuously track EVERYTHING
across your entire OS file system and and continuously rebuild this
simplistic pointer/shortcut list.

You provide ZERO evidence that that some "unidentified" update "wiped"
the "recent documents" list. Even though that may be true, because
software, especially updates, can produce unpredictable results, anyone
who chooses relies entirely on some weak, simplistic archive record
outside of the OS, must accept the consequences of their choice.

For the benefit of others reading this and may be interested, can you
please describe your "work around"?

Hi Meggie,

Your message was posted to a mailing list, with several hundred
subscribers. As a security precaution the mailing list server removes
attachments, which means that list subscribers will not see your screen
capture.

Subscribers. Meggie's capture shows an error message dialog which reads:
"The operation on C:\Users\User\Documents\TRAVEL\MASTER - Travel

Re: Open Office for Sraco Co. SAUDI ARABIA

[Moderator]

Hi Simon,

In the sense that the same day an attempts were made to post this exact
same "boiler plate" *SPAM* to at least four other open source mailing
lists that I know of.

When this post arrived in moderation I checked and noted that it had a
*FORGED* header.

In light of your post, I have gone so far as trying to contact Mohamad
Taha Mohamed at Sraco Co - Purchase Department, only to find that this
character does *NOT* exist.

Now, is that "sense" clear enough for you?

I still do not have an answer to my request for the other moderator to
contact me. Based on information acquired over time I know that Marcus
appointed himself as a list moderator, but our PMC have always
considered it necessary for moderators remain anonymous.

I will repeat the same request for a clear cut, unequivocal answer I
asked the PMC for over 10 years ago: "Why should list moderators not be
able to identify each other". The last time this question was asked some
of our PMC spewed out a meaningless response about privacy, blah, blah,
blah and more BS.

I am about the  one and only moderator for the Apache OpenOffice project
has who actually provides clear, positive, *active* assistance to those
who post to -ow...@openoffice.apache.org

Simon, you and I are very much alike, in the respect that if we take on
a responsibility, be it a trivial list moderation, or establishing a
commercial entity for The Documentation Foundation, we both endeavour to
do the the best job we possibly can.

Re: Fwd: Windows 10 mit OpenOffice 4.1.8

[Moderator]

Thanks Peter. I have only been a moderator for AOO since 2010, so my
first move was to forward the non-subscribed user to:
 which returned the error:

"Host or domain name not found. Name service error for
name=mx1-lw-eu.apache.org type=: Host not found"

I only understand a couple of hundred words in German and have almost
zero comprehension of German grammar. So, in an attempt to assist
someone who appeared to be a long term user of our software I appealed
to German speaking subscribers to this list for assistance.

Regards
Dave

Very rough Google translation:

For years, I have been using 89 years old, OpenOffice, last 4.17. From
my various trips I have produced with the Write program, lots of albums,
find general recognition.

For about half a year I have Windows 10 on my laptop and therefore the
Apache OpenOffice 4.1.8 does not agree. I was not even in the location
to produce Christmas cards from the drawings of my wife!

Sure you see a way I can continue to use the popular program. But
remember my age and that I am Autodidact. I like to be ready

To enable remote access. Or should I delete the unusable program now and
send me a CD for a reasonable price, with which I then

The usable program can download.

I hope so that you can help with help and remain

Hi David,

If you provide a bit more information we may be able to help you.
How are you trying to access your documents?
Are you double clicking on a file name expecting something to happen?
Are you opening Writer and using the main menu "File -> Open" Option?
When you try and access your documents, do any messages appear on your
scree and if so what do they say?


Regards

Dave

Beverly,

Hundreds, maybe thousands, of people are running Apache OpenOffice on
macOS Catalina without any problems.

You have not said exactly what the problem is, but it maybe the macOS
Gatekeeper issue described and solution given in Q #5 of the
OpenOffice forum tutorial:
