I agree, we should add the link on the landing page (which has still an

OK. So can someone tell us the best way to write
"Third party forums in German"
in German? Then if nobody opposes this we implement this solution (and
the link goes to http://www.openoffice.org/de/foren.html that
German-speaking volunteers can easily edit in German).
Joerg, it must be clear (and I agree: this is not clear to everybody)
that consensus decisions do not work as a yes/no decisions. The typical
process is:
- there is a problem (and the problem in your case is clear: we point
all users at forum.openoffice.org as the main support resource, but a
German-speaking user won't find anything useful on that page)
- someone, in this case you, proposes a solution
- the discussion can show that the solution should be a different one,
but this doesn't remove the problem!
- we explore different solutions that can be better in our case, and
this is what I'm proposing above
- in the end, our aim is to solve the problems, not to leave them
unsolved since we don't get consensus on the first proposed solution.
We had already asked the German moderators (a long time ago) if they
were interested in joining the EN and the other locales. But they
declined so we never asked again since.
OK, we now made it clear that this is a possibility. It seems there's no
interest now, but if there interest in future we can come back to this.
Regards,
Andrea.
