Hi :) Good point. There are a LOT of distros out there so perhaps it might be best to save up applications until there is a batch to work through to help with work-flow. Anyway, there is no point worrying about this unless the TDF suddenly gets swamped with tons of requests and that would give the batch anyway! lol
Ok, lets forget this suggestion and get back to what this thread was really about before i side-tracked it (apols) :) Regards from Tom :) ________________________________ From: drew <d...@baseanswers.com> To: steering-discuss@documentfoundation.org Sent: Wed, 10 August, 2011 16:15:44 Subject: Re: [steering-discuss] addition to trademark policy On Wed, 2011-08-10 at 17:06 +0200, Florian Effenberger wrote: > Hi, > > Tom Davies wrote on 2011-08-10 16:45: > > if it could be that simple then it would be easy to give quick answers to > > requests.
