IMO the Forum was a different case, it was already a working structure. The NLC is in a rather different situation, most people listed in http://www.openoffice.org/projects/native-lang.html is not working here, the NLC as a structure can be considered dead, so it is a good chance to start anew and not repeat old mistakes. + 1 to follow the Apache Way here - 1 to bringing back the old hierarchical structure here at this new Apache home Concerning that web page http://www.openoffice.org/native-lang/ is now completely obsolete, it can be removed.
