Aren't you a mentor for this project? Two thing that I'd like to say. First, with "sand kicked" in your face, do you refer to my mail, or to a followup by somebody else? If it has to do with my mail: I know I raised a number of technical concerns. Which of them, or what in my mail wasn't appropriate? Please point me to non-technical issues that I may have touched, because my intention is not to hurt anyones feelings (and I'm sorry if this happened). Second, I don't agree with the "we all agreed" part. It is not true that "we all agreed". There was a discussion in the past how to proceed. The discussion did not finish though --- but put was stopped dead by a ASF representative (of a role unknown to me). See this thread: http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/incubator-ooo-dev/201110.mbox/%3c4ea1fd16.4070...@wtnet.de%3e The resolution was: http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/incubator-ooo-dev/201110.mbox/%3c06de01cc948b$e9ebc710$bdc35530$@16degrees.com.au%3e > I would like us to move on from this Topic, I have said before and I will > say it again, > ASF Infra will NOT support mirrorbrain. > > We have one mirror system and it deals with 200 or so projects.

Therefore I don't agree that much with "we all agreed". How about revisiting the subject? You see, OpenOffice.org needs a powerful mirror system. For a number of technical reasons I hopefully could explain. Wouldn't it be good to join forces? I certainly think so and I'll be happy to support you. Peter
