I am going to leave the project / we, the founders of the Document Foundation, are going to leave the project at some given time and have every intention to keep things clear and clean. But I/we are not going to be thrown out by people who just feel they can get away with zero formality, and zero explanation, and by ignoring our very own guidelines. Didn't Louis already explain that that is not what's happening? After we complained heavily, yes. And I don't find his explanation to be satisfactory. For other people (the now former treasurers) things are quite clear and they were asked to resign. Is that clear to everyone? I'm not insane, I just want, just like the people from Oracle, a bit of respect. The way I see it, you're actually getting that, while not exactly trying hard to earn it. Please try to be rational and keep following that intention to keep things clear and clean. Please define how I'm not being rational. In the meantime, and given the fact that we're going nowhere and that the tone is going up, I would like to request that the entire Community Council, given the quite large number of people including every member of the CC who's not working for Oracle who's moving/migrating/staying here but contributing to LibO and moving away/leaving OOo, should resign and that general elections should be conducted (Hint: I won't run this time, for people who still have their doubts). It would show at least some sensitivity to the fact that the OOo project has failed in at least some regard.

But I accept the term Charles and co, it's somewhat reducing though :-) Sorry, but this gets confusing. You are saying you are leaving, but you say you also stay. You say you are most of the community (except Oracle and Pavel obviously) but at the same time you leave 'the community' no choice because where should they go if they do not want to leave with you? Since if they just stay here they are at the same position that you are leaving to. Maybe I'm not educated enough in graph theories but I'm not sure where you are, where you want to stay and how you can leave without moving. Is it that you leave but stay at the same place and expect Oracle and Pavel to drift away? Maybe there are drugs that can help me solve this mystery no, it's not worth the effort, just put him into ignore mode since he is only trying to provoke us, to be able to tell the story that we are the bad guys throwing him out the council. Instead of following these fruitless threads we should concentrate on the work we have to do, to address the issues and concerns our community has, the work and feedback we get is indeed invaluable and we would be insane if we would not continue to work on this. But I also have respect of those who decided to go their own way and open alternatives. And most of community people are in the comfortable situation to continue to contribute to both projects for a long time before they might be in the need to decide for one of the branches and let the facts decide. But I expect from the leader of the LO efforts not to play kindergarten but to really lead their fork, otherwise they might end in confinement on a lonely island. Anyway let me formulate a question, where should the part of the pre foundation fork community go that do not like to identify with the foundation? I'm not talking about Oracle people here we will do just fine, I'm talking about Pavel and others. Is it fair from your side to rob them the name 'OpenOffice.org community' ? Why are you not wearing your colors, walk and march under the libre flag, show it proud (as you do on press releases and events). +1 Regards, Christian Martin - To unsubscribe, e-mail: project_leads-unsubscr...@openoffice.org For additional commands, e-mail: project_leads-h...@openoffice.org - To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@native-lang.openoffice.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@native-lang.openoffice.org
