Hi, Yes, it would help to have some guidance, perhaps if only towards general expectations for planning purposes. To re-cap there are three upcoming events that I am reasonably certain about our ability to have a presence - OSCON [1] (not sure on size, large) in July, a linux fest[2] ( with ~1,000 ppl) in 2 weeks and another Linux fest[3] in September ( 1,000 ppl). Of those three I would say that all other things being equal I would recommend more TDF expenditure emphasis on OSCON, over the two linux fests. Of course that is contingent on what exactly we could put together for staffing at OSCON.

Re: [tdf-discuss] Problematic digest mail answering - Buggy mailclient?
Hi e-letter, *, e-letter schrieb: A link would not show the behaviour; Thanks for your estimation. My intention was rather to have easy access to information of that list and to an example where Your answer really worked. As I spend enough time investigating Your problem http://news.gmane.org/gmane.comp.documentfoundation.test I hoped to save the time of searching myself.. would be better to subscribe to gnuplot mailing list digest mode. A link where to do so was really great - allthough not helpful *for me* as I don't have gmail running and I don't intend to do so. When the 'reply' function is activated in gmail web-mail interface, the mail message format is retained. As told, I would like to see a succesful example of an answer sent by You if You make possible to provide a link. By the way: As workaround to send proper answers is ordering the desired mail sending a mail to: discuss+ge...@documentfoundation.org where N is the number of that mail provided with the digest. Additionally You're hereby invited to subscribe to test+subscribe-dig...@documentfoundation.org where we try to solve Your problem. We need your experience with digest handling and your testing skills. ;o)) Gruß/regards -- Friedrich Libreoffice-Box http://libreofficebox.org/ LibreOffice and more on CD/DVD images -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to discuss+h...@documentfoundation.org Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.documentfoundation.org/www/discuss/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
