The ooo-...@incubator.apache.org list is the official project list for
the Apache OpenOffice project. Although it has "dev" in the name, you
can think of it as the general project list for Apache OpenOffice.
We're trying to avoid the fragmentation that can occur when you have
300 different mailing lists.

On ooo-dev we are very tolerant of non-native English speakers.  In
fact, the majority of project members speak something other than
English as their native tongue.  But it is important, for working
together, that we have a common list and mode of communication and are
able to achieve a critical mass of activity.

That said, we are open to creating other lists where need is
demonstrated, and where there are volunteers to help moderate the
lists.  Proposals should be made to the ooo-...@incubator.apache.org
mailing list.

Regards,

-Rob
