No, for the simple reason (besides the fact that filing bugs to collabnet is much less productive than fighting windmills) that there is no need at all for Collabnet or any other OOo official to be involved in any way. Please read the proposal again. The autoresponder can work on the computer of any volunteer. > > Please don't take it personally: none of the current volunteers did > > this and I'm well aware of it, but I really don't feel like fighting > > this particular windmill to the end. > > And this would be the wrong place to fight windmills anyway. the real obstacle to solve this problem was the list itself, or more exactly the attitude of those who wouldn't give up their "manually sending CC copy to unsubscribed poster" mission because it gave them a meaning and because they were unable to grasp the autoresponder proposal but unwilling to learn about it because of the other reason. Should I have filed an RFE to Collabnet for the attitude of those people? Which place, other than the list, would have been the right one to try to persuade them? > All else regarding management of the list by OOo and Collabnet would > (again IMHO) would be better served via > http://www.openoffice.org/issues/ or the lists responsible for the > management of the list. Only theoretically. The power of this solution is exactly that it doesn't require any involvement from Collabnet or any other management.
