You should *always* discuss with the community before opening *any* service under the name of LibreOffice or TDF. When you engage the responsibility of the whole project a second thought is *always* needed. After, like Mastodon, it's too late and damages are done to the community. > > Stopping here because I could do other things more meaningful for the > community instead of quibbling for basically no reason. For no reason? do you think that engaging the project without notifying the list for a second look is something that could be called quibbling? > > But I'm keeping your remark with great attention in my head.

We could avoid a lot of work correcting the bad effects afterwards.
