Programmer In Training, before posting to tell us what you believe to be «silly»,you might wish to consider that others may feel that religious propaganda has no place in an email message sent to a list the subject of which has nothing to do with religion. My use of a URL shortener is a result of experience with broken email links sent to people who had difficulty putting them together. If one dislikes the practice, one can always, as I pointed out to Lars, abstain from clicking the link in question. But my desire in opening this thread was to point out to fellow OOo users that ODF has been adopted by the Danish state for official documents, which I felt many would regard as a postive development, not to wake a discussion on either religion or URL shorteners. It would seem that I have failed.... Henri
