FYI, seems my cross posting didn't work... Malte.

To: dev@ui.openoffice.org Newsgroups: openoffice.ui.dev References: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Hi Malte, I think this is an excellent idea, thanks for proposing it. I suggest <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> unless it is too long to type (our <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> alias gets a surprising number of messages from folks wanting card-key access to a particular building...). If address length is an issue, 'a11y' is becomming a common abbreviation, like 'i18n' is for 'internatinalization'. So another choice would be <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>.
