Again, spreadooo seems like a patent effort to re-locate the marketing
project and a good chunk of the NLC off of OOo. Do people want that?


I do not.


I don't think that's the intention (note: I am not involved in the spreadooo thing, I have plenty to keep me busy). But I can see how one might feel like that. When I put myself in the shoes of the MP or the NLC, I can see how this would be a concern. Especially since there's a precedent. Some times people really have attempted forks.

On the other hand, not every project that uses something outside SourceCast is trying to fork. Lots of NL projects also maintain servers outside SC, and there are a few English sites too that are still part of the core OOo effort.

So... I guess I can see where each side is comming from. Perhaps everyone should step back for a bit. And try to see if there's a way to provide the OOo community with a new, useful tool, without a risk of forking it. If that can't be done, spreadooo is not worth doing. But I have hopes that it can be done. Maybe I'm too idealist.

Cheers,
Daniel.
