I've a different view whom beeing part of the community:
What's about one passing the (upcoming) DVD to his neighbour plus giving
him first support but never appearing in the official "contributing
system" here?

Whats about the teacher advocating and promoting LO in his scool or even
an excited user advocating the suite in his company? You wouldn't allow
him to use a @libreoffice.org alias?

You agree the statements of Tom, Olivier and mine one, finally
advocating the opposite - did You read it? :o))

No offence :o))

2011-01-16 Thread Jonathan Aquilina

If you guys would like i have experience setting up email servers on Linux.

it would be an imaps dovecot server + postfix.

the way it will work is in order to have an email you have to have an 
account on the server. also there will be web mail access, as well as 
access via clients like Thunderbird etc.

Don't you think that the rule that active contributing is mandatory
for membership does apply? Else there will be members of different
degrees. :-(


oh, yes, three times yes! Please don't misunderstand me: active
contributing gives right to membership (see the bylaws) and if you're a
member, you can therefore request a @libreoffice.org alias, but it's
just that you may or may not feel the need to have it (hence my example
about the developer); it simply depends on what you're doing and
whether you would like to have it or not.

+1, I would even add the following: @libreoffice.org are only available
for official contributors and even they have to request it (I don't
exactly see the automatic need for, say, a code contributor to have
such an address).

Well, it seems it has not been announced yet by Jean (I was with Florian
too early also ;-). May be we should just wait for Jean, Sigrid or
Andreas to make the official announcement and then, bring the support
you mentioned.

Hi,

Jean announced the site open today on the mailing list there.

So too early and now too late, seems a difficult timing for me ;-)

- already pushed a blog entry and a few tweets on it...but a more
official one would be nice.
I let the official speakers take the job here, but thanks for your work 
on it.


Kind regards
Sophie
