I believe it is a bad pattern to establish for collaboration. We need to recognize that TDf/LO exists as a project, and AOOo exists as a project. Once we acknowledge this then it logically follows that collaboration will occur between these two projects. Do we create a new mailing list or website, or wiki or whatever, every time we want to collaborate? Is that what we really want to start doing? If we want to coordinate on maintaining a module, we can't do it at Apache? If we want to share translation strings, we can't do it at TDF? If we want to share anything, we need to create and maintain an entirely new infrastructure for it? Sorry, that does not make sense. > I made a proposal on how to have neutral grounds, and if all parties are > involved, trust should be given as well. Users will benefit.
