I agree that participants on discuss@oo.o should be invited to come to ooo-users@i.a.o. Can we be more diplomatic in our announcements over there? The one at users@oo.o on creation of the ooo-users@i.a.o list did not go over very well and was a lightning rod for some vocal participants there.

[DISCUSS] Announcing Apache ooo Bugzilla on OpenOffice.org Lists

2011-09-02 Thread Dennis E. Hamilton
I am preparing a message for OpenOffice.org lists on the shutdown of the OO.o bugzilla, the availability of the Apache ooo issues tracker, and advice on resetting passwords if there had been an account already. In particular, I want to reassure folks that the list from openoffice.org has been p

I think Article 32 is of particular interest in the case of OpenOffice.org distributions in France. It would appear that compliance with Article 30 is not difficult, since source code is available in all cases. It would be interesting to find out if the Apache process for declaring cryptograph

I'm not aware of any "legacy encryption" in non-ODF formats being supported on output or input. I must try that. Rob, Is it your understanding that http is implemented directly in OpenOffice, or is the platform provider of http: and https: schemes relied upon? I would be amazed to learn that
