I think the "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" project at least in its current state is still bound to OOo as it is the central building block. As long as this is not becoming a subject to change it makes a lot of sense to keep it in the OOo project. But YMMV. Ciao, Mathias -- Mathias Bauer (mba) - Project Lead OpenOffice.org Writer OpenOffice.org Engineering at Sun: http://blogs.sun.com/GullFOSS Please don't reply to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]". I use it for the OOo lists and only rarely read other mails sent to it. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
