Hi James, James E Lang wrote on 2014-01-31 21:12: I also think most mailing lists encourage replies to the list by inserting a "Reply-To" header designating the list as the preferred reply address. This lets all on the list to learn from most responses. It also guides people on the list regarding which queries still need a response. we had quite a large discussion on that topic a while ago, with advantages and disadvantages for both settings (so called "reply-to mangling"). We have in the end agreed to use the setting as it is now. Sorry if that causes inconveniences for you, but there's close to little we can do to make everyone happy.

[libreoffice-users] Seeking for list moderators
Hello, at the moment, we are looking for volunteers who could help moderate this mailing list. If you are interested, the only requirement is that you are subscribed to the list yourself and read its mails in a somehow timely manner, but that's about it. Moderation means dealing with e-mails that do not automatically make it to the list, which you then manually forward, or reject. This happens either when an e-mail comes from an unknown sender, e.g. when a project member uses a different address for posting. It also occurs when someone unexperienced writes to the list, thinking it's a private account, but in fact it's a public list. You'll receive the message to be moderated via e-mail, which you then can either "moderate through", or reject. Is someone interested in joining our efforts? It'd be much appreciated - just drop me an email (please also copy me directly, and not only the list), then I'm happy to add you to the list of moderators. Thanks!

Re: [libreoffice-users] Unsubscribe
Hello, in order to improve the wording of the unsubscribe instructions, could you please tell us where you had the problems and what step did not work out? When you write to the users+h...@global.libreoffice.org you'll receive a mail for instructions on how to subscribe and unsubscribe, and the unsubscribe addresses differ depending on whether you have a normal subscription (you receive each mail individually and without delay), or digest mode (you receive a collection of mails). Is that where the misunderstanding started? You will then receive another mail, asking for confirmation of the unsubscribe, in order to prevent other people from unsubscribing you without your consent - just as the request for confirmation when subscribing prevents that other people add you to the list. Were you able to figure out that you had to send another mail to the appropriate unsubscribe address, after receiving the automatic reply? We also link to a handy page with all information about unsubscribing, including a human contact you can reach in case things do not work for you. This page is linked in the footer of every message. Did you read this page? You can find it at http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ You were now manually removed from the list, but nevertheless we'd be glad if you could tell us where the problem was, so that we can improve the process and make it easier for other users in the same situation as you were.

[libreoffice-users] Reply settings on this list have changed
Hello, this is to inform you that the reply settings on this list have changed (so-called "Reply to mangling" has been disabled). So far, e-mails had set a reply-to the mailing list address. In other words, with any e-mail client, replies to e-mails on the list were automatically sent directly to the list. In the past, this lead to two major problems: 1. Several times, people have sent direct replies to the public list, where deleting them is nearly impossible. I remember at least one case where confidential information has been sent out that caused lots of worries for the sender and his employer. This happened because people hit "reply" and thought it would reply to the sender only. 2. I have heard complaints in the past from people, stating that working with the non-developer lists of LibreOffice is a pain for them, because of reply-to mangling, resulting in a lack of communication. This also led to the fact that numerous tasks were done by the same people, who needed to spend more and more time, instead of sharing the work burden with others. While I do not fully believe this argument, there's just one way to find out... Therefore, I have applied a change: Replies to e-mails from the list now only go to the original sender. You either need to use the "reply to all" feature of your e-mail program, or - preferably - the "reply to list"/"reply to group" feature, which will direct replies directly to the list. This is common practice on most mailing lists, and even the default setting for our mailing list software, so we did not re-invent the wheel here. Those seeking for details should have a look at http://www.unicom.com/pw/reply-to-harmful.html I know we had numerous discussions on this topic in the past, but the outcome was that roughly 50% were for this change, and 50% refused it, so I am really sitting between two chairs here, for which I beg for your understanding. On the one hand, those complaining the lists are unusable with reply-to mangling, on the other hand, those complaining the lists are unusable without reply-to mangling. Unfortunately, combining those two, even on a per-recipient basis, is not possible, so they are mutually exclusive to each other. In order to find out the real impact, I simply changed the setting, and again, I beg for your understanding. Do not worry: The mailing lists are for the community, so it's the community deciding how they should work. What I'd like to ask all of you is to try out for a few days if that change is good for each list or not. Should we find out it is more harmful than it helps, I will immediately switch back to the old behaviour. Sorry for this short notice, and I beg for your understanding that I'm somehow sitting between two chairs here.

Re: [libreoffice-users] Unsubscribing from this list
Hi, I am not subscribed to this list, just saw new postings in the archives, so if I miss replying to an important message regarding unsubscription, please excuse me. ;-) Well, basically, subscription and unsubscription work *exactly* the same way, except that of course, subscribe is replaced by unsubscribe in the message footer. We currently have one limitation, that is due to our mailing list software, but a new release here has been pending for many months, and it finally looks like we can see it at the horizon. :) Depending on the type of subscription (regular, digest or nomail for those using GMANE), you need to unsubscribe. We already had a +unsubscribe link in the footer, which immediately brought many complaints from digest subscribers, telling that unsubscription does not work. In future versions of our mailing list manager, this will work, but right now, digest subscribers have to use a different address. I also had disabled digest subscriptions at all in the beginning, which brought complaints as well, so I finally enabled them. You see, whatever we do, it's wrong for some people, depending on their situation. That's why we created that dedicated web site with detailed information. I bet that anyone who reads thoroughly, and managed to subscribe, should be able to manage unsubscribing. In case they do not, they can contact the address at the bottom of that web site, normally leading to manual unsubscription in less than a few hours. We ask everyone who has issues to let us know in detail about the problem, and for at least 95% it's simply "they did not read". Only very few issues were technically related.

[libreoffice-users] Unsubscribing from this list
Hello, in the last few days, we have been receiving numerous requests for unsubscription from this mailing list. Since we are a volunteer project, and each of us spends up to several hours per day to work on his tasks, pro bono, I would like to ask all of you to *READ* this message *IN ITS ENTIRETY*. Every mailing lists contains information on how to unsubscribe in the footer. In case you have problems with unsubscribing, there is also a website giving detailed information on what to do to unsubscribe. Its address is http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ At the bottom of this page, there is also a *HUMAN CONTACT* you can write to in case of troubles. Do *NOT* reply to *THIS* e-mail in order to be unsubscribed, and do *NOT* drop me a private mail. It will *NOT* work. Rather *READ* the above page thoroughly, and in case it does not solve your problem, you can drop an e-mail to the contact mentioned there. Way over 95% of all unsubscription problems are not related to any malfunction of our mail system or of spam filters triggering in error. We can confirm - we've researched each and every case - that nearly all unsubscription problems simply occur because people do not *READ* the instructions we give.

Hello, sadly, a project caught me longer today than I thought, and I will have to work probably one or two more hours on it, which means that I cannot manage the address change for the lists today. So, the address change for the lists will be DELAYED I am sorry, the project came in quite unexpectedly, but sometimes "real life" needs time, too. :-) I will try to do the address change as soon as possible, and follow-up on this lists soon.

[libreoffice-users] Unsubscription issues?
Hello, one more note to unsubscribing, as this seems to occur often: The address you use for unsubscribing has to be the *SAME* as the one you used for subscribing. If you subscribe with y...@yourcompany.com and unsubscribe with y...@yourprivateaccount.org, it can *NOT* work, as our mailing list system for sure cannot know who you are. So, if you try unsubscribing and it doesn't work, please double-check it's the right address. You can also have a look at the message headers to find out which account the mail was delivered to. If in doubt: Do not rant on the list, but rather write to the humans who can help you, i.e. our team of admins, at postmas...@documentfoundation.org We usually reply within a few hours. And again, please do *NOT* open tickets on spam reporting sites. It is *NOT* our fault if you use the wrong address. We can help you, but you need to let us know.

[libreoffice-users] How to unsubscribe
Hello, it seems that during the last days, people had issues with unsubscribing from this mailing list. This led to the TDF mail server being listed in a spam blacklist. I researched the message IDs, and they clearly referred to postings on this mailing list, that have not been spam. As we use double opt-in mechanism and give information on how to unsubscribe at the footer of each mail, I managed to get us unlisted again, but this costs lots of time. So, if anyone on this list has issues with unsubscribing and cannot manage them on their own, feel free to contact postmas...@documentfoundation.org directly, where one of our administrators will unsubscribe you manually, if needed. Before filing spam complaints that are not justified, and cost hours of our volunteer (!) work, please get in touch with us first. I am sure any issues can be solved without involving third parties. NB: I am *not* subscribed to this mailing list (users@), so if you want to follow-up with me, write to me directly or to the postmaster alias.

[libreoffice-users] Re: changes for this mailing list
Hello Dennis, Dennis E. Hamilton wrote on 2011-05-26 18.20: And who is this capital-C "Community" of which you speak? (I was teasing about founders.libreoffice.org, but not members.libreoffice.org.) What was done to engage all effected parties? the Community is all of us, the people engaging on the lists, contributing. We received many requests like "can I have a @libreoffic.org address like it was at OpenOffice.org", and during one of the public calls, the steering committee agreed in doing so, help people identify with the project. The limitation to members -- anyone active can apply as a member -- is solely because of bad experiences we had at OpenOffice.org, where people simply could register an @openoffice.org address and pretend they speak on behalf of the project. We ran into problems indeed with that. We discussed on the public lists and in the public calls -- it cannot be more public and transparent, anyone had a chance to join. In fact, the discussion has been running since February or even earlier, so there was plenty of time. But why is the change not made a slight change, if any, for those who are the beneficiaries of the change, rather than those who are not? Because it is technically not possible. We want to issue @libreoffice.org addresses, and by doing so, we cannot have mailing lists on the same addresses. I also proposed to instead use @libreoffice.net for the mail forwarders, but nobody agreed to that. This, again, on the public list where anyone could discuss. And, honestly, it's no bigger change than if one contact of yours has a new e-mail address. You change it in the address book, and that's it.

[libreoffice-users] changes for this mailing list
Hello everyone, as part of our membership process, we also would like to give @libreoffice.org e-mail forwarders to our approved members. Thanks to the folks from Heinlein Support in Berlin, who offered to take care of the mail forwarding and to program a web tool to enable users to configure the forwarding! In order to be able to use two different mail servers -- one for mailing lists, and one for the mail forwarders -- we have to change the addresses of a few mailing lists. In a nutshell: All lists currently known as @libreoffice.org will in the future be known as @global.libreoffice.org In detail: accessibil...@libreoffice.org => accessibil...@global.libreoffice.org des...@libreoffice.org => des...@global.libreoffice.org documentat...@libreoffice.org => documentat...@global.libreoffice.org l...@libreoffice.org => l...@global.libreoffice.org market...@libreoffice.org => market...@global.libreoffice.org proje...@libreoffice.org => proje...@global.libreoffice.org users@libreoffice.org => us...@global.libreoffice.org webs...@libreoffice.org => webs...@global.libreoffice.org You do *not* have to un- or resubscribe from any lists, as the list of all recipients will be automatically transferred to the new addresses. The subject prefix, like [libreoffice-website], will also stay the *same*. What *will* change is the address you have to send e-mails to, and the headers like List-Post and List-ID. So, in case you filter your e-mails based on the headers, you *do* need to act. This is most likely the case if you use a local mail client like Thunderbird. Webmail services like Google Mail usually do *not* make use of these headers. The change will be effective during the day of Thursday, June 9th I will send a follow-up e-mail when the addresses have changed. Immediately after that, assume the old addresses will stop working. I will try to set them as aliases for a few days, but I cannot guarantee it will work out. However, *no* e-mail will be lost -- in case there is no alias in place, you will receive a bounce message and can re-send the mail again. Sorry for these inconveniences, but they will help us in providing e-mail forwarders for our members. In case of questions, feel free to ask me directly, or on the website@ mailing list.

[libreoffice-users] Six Months of Freedom and Community
On September 28th, 2010, The Document Foundation was announced. The last six months, it feels, have just passed within a short glimpse of time. Not only did we release three LibreOffice versions within three months, have created the LibreOffice-Box DVD image, and brought LibreOffice Portable on its way. We also have announced the LibreOffice Conference for October 2011 and have taken part in lots of events worldwide, with FOSDEM and CeBIT being the most prominent ones. People follow us at Twitter, Identi.ca, XING, LinkedIn and a Facebook group and fan page, they discuss on our mailing lists with more than 6.000 subscriptions, collaborate in our wiki, get insight on our daily work in our blog, and post and blog themselves. From the very first day, openness, transparency and meritocracy have been shaping the framework we want to work in. Our discussions and decisions take place on a public mailing list, and regularly, we hold phone conferences for the Steering Committee and for the marketing teams, where everyone is invited to join. Our ideas and visions have made their way into our Next Decade Manifesto. We have joined the Open Invention Network as well as the OpenDoc Society, and just last week have become an SPI-associated project, and we see a wide range of support from all over the world. Not only do Novell and Red Hat support our efforts with developers, but just recently, Canonical, creators of Ubuntu, joined as well. All major Linux distributions deliver LibreOffice with their operating systems, and more follow every day. One of the most stunning contributions, that still leaves us speechless, is the support that we receive from the community. When we asked for 50,000 € capital stock for a German-based foundation, the community showed their support, appreciation and their power, and not only donated it in just eight days, but up to now has supported us with close to 100,000 €! Another one is that driven by our open, vendor neutral approach, combined with our easy hacks, we have included code contributions from over 150 entirely new developers to the project, alongside localisations from over 50 localizers. The community has developed itself better than we could ever dream of, and first meetings like the project’s weekend or the QA meeting of the Germanophone group are already being organized. What we have seen now is just the beginning of something very big. The Document Foundation has a vision, and the creation of the foundation in Germany is about to happen soon. LibreOffice has been downloaded over 350,000 times within the first week, and we just counted more than 1,3 million downloads just from our download system — not counting packages directly delivered by Linux distributors, other download sites or DVDs included in magazines and newspapers — supported by 65 mirrors from all over the world, and millions already use and contribute to it worldwide. With our participation in the Google Summer of Code, we will engage more students and young developers to be part of our community. Our improved release schedule will ensure that new features and improvements will make their way to end-users soon, and for testers, we even provide daily builds. We are so excited by what has been achieved over the last six months, and we are immensely grateful to all those who have supported the project in whatever ways they can. It is an honour to be working with you, to be part of one united community! The future as we are shaping it has just begun, and it will be bright and excellent. -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to users+h...@libreoffice.org List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/www/users/ *** All posts to this list are publicly archived for eternity ***
[libreoffice-users] LibreOffice Conference to be held in Paris this October
LibreOffice Conference to be held in Paris this October First annual project meeting from October 12th to 15th The Document Foundation today announced the first annual LibreOffice Conference, which will be held in Paris from October 12th to 15th. Carrying on the tradition of previous OOoCon conferences, the LibreOffice Conference will be the event for those interested in the development of free office productivity software, open standards, and the OpenDocument format generally. "We're proud of what we have achieved so far with LibreOffice and The Document Foundation. We are seeing a rapidly-growing ecosystem built on free software, and the LibreOffice Conference will be an exciting opportunity to meet our Community members, developers and hackers," says Charles Schulz, Steering Committee member of The Document Foundation and one of the organizers of this year's conference. "Paris has long been a strong supporter of free software and, following a fantastic release party in 2008, plans for another event in Paris were already being made during the last OOoCon. So, we're happy to announce our first conference taking place in the heart of France." The LibreOffice Conference will host several tracks on various aspects of LibreOffice, including adoption, migration, development and interoperability. More information about the venue and a call for papers will be available soon. The location for the LibreOffice Conference in 2012 will be decided by the Community in an open Call for Locations process, details about which will be announced soon. The website for the LibreOffice Conference is at http://conference.libreoffice.org Information on LibreOffice can be found at http://www.libreoffice.org The home of The Document Foundation is at http://www.documentfoundation.org About The Document Foundation The Document Foundation has the mission of facilitating the evolution of the LibreOffice Community into a new, open, independent, and meritocratic organization over the next few months. An independent foundation is a better reflection of the values of our contributors, users and supporters, and will enable a more effective, efficient and transparent community. TDF will protect past investments by building on the achievements of the first decade, will encourage wide participation within the community, and will co-ordinate activity across the community.

[libreoffice-users] Thousands of donors contribute €50,000 in just eight days to The Document Foundation
Thousands of donors contribute €50,000 in just eight days to The Document Foundation LibreOffice Community accomplishes next major milestone Ongoing donations to support marketing, infrastructure and development The Community around LibreOffice, the free personal productivity suite, has accomplished the next major milestone in establishing The Document Foundation as a legal entity. In just eight days, some 2,000 donors from all over the world contributed €50,000 for the capital stock necessary to set-up the legal entity in Germany. "We still can't believe it," says Florian Effenberger, Steering Committee member. "It happened in such a short period of time and was beyond our wildest expectations. You all really rock! On behalf of the Community, the Steering Committee would like to thank all the donors for their generous support." The €50,000 collected will form the Foundation's paid-up capital, ensuring a permanent future for the organization after the legal paperwork is complete, based in Germany. The capital will be frozen assets for the Foundation: the funds cannot be spent, and we will be able to avail just the annual interest. All money donated from now on will actually bankroll our ongoing running costs for things such as marketing, hardware, infrastructure, attending trade shows, initial financing of merchandising material and, of course, developing new and exciting ideas. "So we still need your support: Every donation helps to pay for our future operational running," Effenberger adds. Details on how to donate to The Document Foundation and how the money will be spent are available at http://challenge.documentfoundation.org Information about LibreOffice can be found at http://www.libreoffice.org The home of The Document Foundation is at http://www.documentfoundation.org About The Document Foundation The Document Foundation has the mission of facilitating the evolution of the LibreOffice community into a new, open, independent, and meritocratic organization over the next few months.

[libreoffice-users] LibreOffice Community starts 50,000 Euro challenge for setting-up its foundation
LibreOffice Community starts 50,000 Euro challenge for setting-up its foundation German-based model provides best stability and safety for users, adopters, developers and enterprises Race for funds open until March 21st The Internet, February 16th, 2011 - The community around LibreOffice, the free office productivity suite, today announced its fifty-thousand Euro challenge for setting-up The Document Foundation as a legal entity. The race for funds is open until March 21st 2011, which marks the beginning of Spring in the northern hemisphere. All users - especially enterprises - are invited to donate to the capital stock of the future foundation. "After thorough investigation, the Steering Committee came to the conclusion that a foundation based in Germany would provide the best stability, not only for our users, but also for adopters, developers and enterprises. For achieving this stability, a capital stock of at least 50,000 Euros is considered best practice in Germany," says Florian Effenberger, Steering Committee member of The Document Foundation. "Now that we have our first release of LibreOffice, which has been downloaded and installed all around the world, the time has come to legally establish the future home for our community". All donations will be used for setting-up The Document Foundation, and after the fifty thousand Euros has been collected for the capital stock, donations over the top of that sum will be fed directly into the future foundation's budget to cover operating costs. Should the race for funds not succeed, The Document Foundation will use the donations to incorporate itself in a different country that requires less capital stock, such as the United Kingdom. To achieve their ambitious goal of a Foundation in Germany in just five weeks, the community has set-up a dedicated website with detailed information at http://challenge.documentfoundation.org The site will also give adopters, community members and corporate sponsors a voice, and will have special features rolled out at the accomplishment of each donation milestone. "We have seen wide support from many organizations, and the amount of volunteer work that has been put into The Document Foundation is just amazing. Without people donating their free time, knowledge and creativity to what will be the future home of LibreOffice, we wouldn't be where we are today. However, volunteer work alone can't fund the necessary capital stock, which is why we have started a public race for donations, especially targeting contributions from enterprises and public administrations adopting LibreOffice, and those interested in an independent, vital and growing ecosystem around free office productivity software", Florian Effenberger adds. Information about LibreOffice can be found at http://www.libreoffice.org The home of The Document Foundation is at http://www.documentfoundation.org About The Document Foundation The Document Foundation has the mission of facilitating the evolution of the OOo Community into a new, open, independent, and meritocratic organization within the next few months.

I sure appreciate your responsiveness. thanks. ;) Yes, it could be like the one on the openoffice.org website but with unsubscribe mailto's as well. Are you referring here to putting a link to that page in the message footer? Sounds like a plan! And it could index into the FAQ, too. Exactly. When that page is ready, removing the +help address, but rather pointing to that page could be helpful. Something like: "Information on unsubscribing and accessing the archives are available at: ..." I seem to remember somebody else mentioning this on the OOo users list, but in any case we seem to be OK now. Ok, let me know if it occurs again. If you send a message to users-h...@openoffice.org, you'll see some other commands that don't seem to be supported yet for the LibO list management (at least from its own help). Some of them might be useful. Oh, no, not right now, unfortunately. But we're working closely with the mlmmj developers to implement new features. In fact, one script written by my colleague Alex, which stripts HTML and attachments out of mails, already made it into their contrib tree.

Re: [libreoffice-users] unsubscribe
Hi Barbara, Barbara Duprey wrote on 2010-10-15 17.30: In that case, to avoid awkward breaks, how about "E-mail to users+h...@libreoffice.com for help with list usage, including how to subscribe or unsubscribe." Or leave out the "including" phrase in my original suggestion. Saying that's how to get help is accurate, and much less confusing than implying that it will unsubscribe you. I just did a small change - see the footer of this mail. Hope this is better understandable. But let's see and improve the footer step by step. Maybe the idea with a dedicated mailing list page is good. Could you expand on that, please? I guess that having a page with all mailing lists available, including their URLs and archives is a good idea. But let's wait with that until our CMS is running -- the current listing on the website is just a temporary solution. When I first tried, at the same time I subscribed here, I got an "undelivered" message: Strange... should work, and never heard about this error before. ... and the other command addresses (index, thread, etc.)? Sorry?

Hi Barbara, Barbara Duprey wrote on 2010-10-15 00.20: Since the community seems to have control over these messages, I'd like to see the trailer say: For help with list usage, including how to subscribe or unsubscribe, please e-mail to users+h...@libreoffice.org. the problem is, that this is too long, as we had reports from Google Mail users complaining there is a line break after the + So, we had to keep it rather short. But let's see and improve the footer step by step. Maybe the idea with a dedicated mailing list page is good. Since you seem to know what's going on here, is the discuss list subscription working yet? Also, does the message number used in the +get Err, sure, it always worked? discuss+subscr...@documentfoundation.org track directly with the archive, or does it need to come from the Return-Path header as for openoffice.org? Are analogs to the other ezmlm command addresses planned? At the moment, the Return Path header is the one containing the right ID, I guess.

Re: [libreoffice-users] unsubscribe
Hi, Barbara Duprey wrote on 2010-10-14 22.32: Clearly the message trailer is wrong; the correct link for unsubscribing should be the actual "unsubscribe" one shown above. But the "help" should also yield a message with details of the supported command addresses, including how to unsubscribe. I haven't tried that yet -- does it not yet work? the +help address is mentioned in the footer, as the unsubscription for digest and non-digest readers is different. The +help message explains it.

Re: [libreoffice-users] unsubscribe
What do you mean by unsuccessful? Did you receive the automatic reply that you have to confirm, before you get unsubscribed? Are you receiving the normal mails or the digest? Steve Martin wrote on 2010-10-14 19.00: Multiple attempts to unsubscribe by emailing to users+h...@libreoffice.org have been unsuccessful. But it's no big deal. I'll just keep unsubscribing daily until it works. Have a good day.
