Special Thanks to Andrew Rist
As we celebrate the release of Apache OpenOffice 3.4, I want to just take moment to recognize one project member who has been very busy, but also very quiet. The transition from Oracle to Apache did not end with Oracle submitting an SGA. That was just the beginning. From coordinating domain name transfers, to helping transition the many legacy online services, to handling administrative requests on legacy servers, to updating license info in source files, and on and on, including stuff I probably don't even know about. Oh, yes, and then he somehow found time to get the buildbots running. So thanks, Andrew, for your steady work on transitioning the project to Apache, and thanks as well to Oracle for making your efforts possible. Regards, -Rob

Note: Andrew was my colleague during my stint at Oracle. I liked working with him and appreciated his real interest in OOo, the ODF, and the project.

Re: Special Thanks to Andrew Rist
Thanks... Just doing my part. And seriously - congratulations to everyone on the release. I think it was an education for everyone, how many moving parts need to be put together to make this happen. A lot of people just doing their part. A.
