"We" here loosely means the group of people inside Sun that started
to get the warning-free thing going back then.

Ok, I had in mind some ESC meeting or something. In fact, searching
in the archives, I found your -impressive- original mail (http://
www.openoffice.org/servlets/ReadMsg?listName=dev&msgNo=14653 )
and for the record, I found it very interesting and I mentionned it
on the Education Project wiki page ( http://
wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Education_Project/Effort#.5B.

I remember having discussed the binfilter issue in some face-to-
face setting, but do not remember any further details, and also did
not find anything written down regarding this. My comment was not
meant to imply an "officiality," I just wanted to give background
information.
My question was just informative, nothing more. Mail is not the best
sometimes, and without the context, the intention can easely be
misunderstood. Sorry.
Don't get me wrong;
I don't :-)
I do not say you must not change binfilter (how could I?).
You are right to point us to not spend resources for useless work
(e.g. for the one who will QA the changes), and from our side, we
promise to be as efficient as possible, starting following kendy's
advice, for example, but not only. With Rakesh, we have the
enthousiasm, and you have the expertise :-)
If you think it is a good idea, go ahead.
Ok, and if you have other ideas, please don't hesitate to tell us.
I think another important work we could start working on for
Education Project is "explain" the bridges. I remember Daniel Boelzle
wrote a great document explaining how works the "proxy" between UNO,
Java and C++ APIs, and this could be an interesting theorical point
about OpenOffice.org for beginners. The bad thing is I lost the
document somewhere, but I'm confident I'll retrieve one copy soon.
Of course, if you think this is a wrong idea, don't hesitate to tell me.
Regards,
Eric
