Hi :) I think that is fair enough. The 2 worst case scenarios i can see as a result are 1. A questionner gets 2 almost identical answer or the same advice given in 2 different ways. 2. A questionner gets 2 completely different answers going in different directions
Both are actually quite positive. In 2 the questionner gets to pick and choose which answer they like or they get to try both ways. In 1 the questionner is given greater confidence in the answer and maybe has a greater understanding of how to deal with side-issues. Both cases occur anyway and that is part of the advantage of having a public list. No-one can get along well with everyone all the time. If we all did then there would be substantial less great and inspiring art, literature, innovations and all the rest. So, i think it is all good.

Especially when it is someone that produces >so much good for the LO community (say in the area of free documentation). If a poster insists that he be able to post in a manner that I find confusing and offensive, then I'm not interested in reading anything he is writting. I find it very effective in making this mailing list readable. -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: [email protected] Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: [email protected] Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
