Hi Andrew, I added some comments to the forum post above. For those that don't follow the forums I'll include the full text of those comments here: ------------------------------------- Hello Andrew, Noticed your comment to the Apache OpenOffice mailing list and your link to this post. I just wanted to add some personal comments to what you posted. First - I did not see the images that sparked this either, but from what I can gather they hit a nerve with a few individuals. Second - it is true that a couple of individuals, whom I don't believe have any history with any of the forums, made comments on the Apache OpenOffice mailing list along the lines you describe - HOWEVER - there was, to my reading of the list, no uptake to the idea at all. Also - the Apache OpenOffice group has been dealing with some issues concercning another website, one that has nothing to do with the forum here, and I think everyone was a bit on edge, a bit more rhetoric flying around then is really healthy - so what I think is that the timing on this particular 'event', happening while peoples emotions where already heightened was a large contributing factor to most of the comments. That all I wanted to add to this particular subject. Best wishes, Drew ----------------
