And who is this capital-C "Community" of which you speak? (I was teasing about founders.libreoffice.org, but not members.libreoffice.org.) What was done to engage all effected parties?
" It is a slight change for those writing to the lists, but we're trying to make the process as easy as possible." But why is the change not made a slight change, if any, for those who are the beneficiaries of the change, rather than those who are not? As I said, I don't expect this change to be altered, but I think some introspection about the values it reflects would be useful. - Dennis -----Original Message----- From: Florian Effenberger [mailto:flo...@documentfoundation.org] Sent: Thursday, May 26, 2011 05:07 To: Tom Davies Cc: us...@libreoffice.org; documentation@libreoffice.org; accessibil...@libreoffice.org Subject: Re: [libreoffice-users] RE: [libreoffice-documentation] changes for this mailing list Hello, Tom Davies wrote on 2011-05-25 20.25: > This has been discussed 'ad nauseum' on the website list and probably > other places although i think it was some time ago and 'shelved' as > being too low-priority at the time.

After we received lots of inquiries from the Community -- so it is *not* about addresses for the founders or the steering committee -- we agreed on handing out these forwarders for members of TDF. It is a slight change for those writing to the lists, but we're trying to make the process as easy as possible. lists.libreoffice.org is not possible for technical reasons, as some internal lists and archives are hosted at this address.
