Somehow, it did not sink in that you were part of the folk that have administrative functions already. Especially when Terry was inviting PPMC members to come over.
I grant you that he meant people who were taking positions about the forums without having been there to observe all that "even" a Volunteer can see. When we went off on needing PPMC oversight, it would have been good to know that knowledgeable PPMC members were already positioned to provide that, at least for the English forum. It still seems strange. - Dennis -----Original Message----- From: drew [mailto:d...@baseanswers.com] Sent: Tuesday, September 06, 2011 08:29 To: ooo-dev@incubator.apache.org Subject: RE: What is needed for Support Forums to be fully integrated into the Apache OpenOffice.org project On Tue, 2011-09-06 at 07:56 -0700, Dennis E.

Hi Dennis, If I follow correctly, then I don't agree with that. Terry, Zoltan, Khirano, Alexandro, Andreas, David, Ricardo, myself and I may have missed someone (apologies if I did) - are all members of the PPMC already if I'm not mistaken, we have all mentioned our involvement on the forums more then once I believe. Hagar (leads the global moderator group) has introduced himself, Cyril from the French forum did the same. Haven't noticed anyone form the Chinese or Vietnamese forums, something that I've known needs attending to, or maybe I just missed it. > > It boggles my mind how much withholding is going on. To be honest I keep hearing oversight and looking at the list and wondering, how much more oversight do they need - just about all the big hitters are already in the PPMC - perhaps I should of said it just that simply.
