I have asked the members of the CC to clarify our--OOo's-- relation
to oomouse. Theo is free to include OpenOffice.org in the product
and free to ask for supportive quotes and free to use both (after,
I hope, submission for review), but not free to make claims that
mislead. Nor is he free to manipulate our logo and marks as he sees
fit.
I have received a number of enquiries from the Italian press, mostly
because they have seen the article on Slashdot. To clarify the
issue, I have prepared a statement that says that the author was
allowed to present at the OOo Conference and prepare a prototype for
this purpose, but then has gone beyond this issuing a press release
with statements that do not reflect the real situation.
By the way, I have had the mouse in my hand for a few seconds, and I
don't think that a "normal" appendix (i.e., the usual five fingers)
can handle the rodent efficiently. Also, in order to remember the
zillions of theoretical combinations you would need a RAM upgrade,
in order to avoid a buffer overflow ;-)
Thanks. I would like for us, first, to be in agreement, and have sent
the copy to the CC members offlist, for their input, prior to making
it public. I expect some changes. Theo of OOMouse (which has to
change its name) has agree, too, to help out with the statement to the
press.
The press must be notified and I hope to do that in full agreement
from the project today. (El Reg got it... sigh). John has stepped out
but when he returns, shortly, we can talk and I hope come to a swift
agreement. Again, no one is being blamed for this series of mistakes,
but for that very reason, I would expect immediate action on the part
of War Mouse to rectify what I persist in believing are honest mistakes.
Ciao, Italo
