Hello,
I have to say that I'm a little bit confused by all this.
Even though I am in favor of an EN native-lang project, I'm afraid it would be created now for the bad reasons.
It is not because the Marketing project pretendedly does a bad job that an EN project should be created.
This community has rules and is coordinated in a way that can be criticized, but still in a way that has allowed us to survive and gain some significant market share since 4 years. It is not because some are frustrated that our community should divide itself into "structural forks", like an EN NL project.
I just cannot let this happen. We all know that we need more independence, more power and ressources to accomplish the purposes of OOo.
We all know that we are going to live exciting and hazardous times because a foundation will have to be created, and that who will be inside it and who will invest in it is still not clear. This is why a project, and especially such an important project as an EN NL project, cannot be created out of frustration.
This is why, although I usually don't do that, and that I hate to do this, I vote -1 for the EN NL project.
Sorry,
Charles-H. Schulz.
