Hi Luciano, *

Can we really expect that? I don't think. The subscription we get costs a load of money per year for normal people out there. We have to be lucky for such an offer. I think, Microsoft don't like to support a inactive committer, who save a load of money and work anymore for the ASF. So I understand, that they only give the subscribtion for a year. So I think we should be thankful for this.

I was also profiting two years from the MSDN Subscription, even the main work was for Apache OpenOffice!

Also MS is one of the longest standing Platium sponsor from the ASF (or the longest)

Regards, Raphael

Ross,

Any chance that MS would actually provide a long term subscription for
Apache Committers to avoid the issues we are currently seeing with renew
process ?

It's OK, go ahead and submit. I'll dedupe if necessary (I'm the first
point of failure in the hand over to MS).

Hmmm, I’m not sure when I submitted mine, is there a way we can see the
list of pending requests? I’d hate to have everyone bother you personally
to find out, or resubmit duplicates.

Cheers,
