Surely you as moderator have received the attachments? Just get on
with it and explain what the request it. Asking the sender to debug
this is probably not going to work.
It already worked half way. I prefer to help people to help themselves.
That
makes it easier for them to come back later, standing on their own feet.
Do you really think that we'll hear from them again? Even if the same
company needed permission from us again (unlikely) the chances are
that we'd get a request from a different employee. Taking time to
explain the technical limitations of our mailing list to a random
office worker is not an investment that will ever pay off.
Yes, I do. It's no company but a academic research center is contacting us.
They want to use materials about Calc for their courses. It's not unlikely
that a similar request about Writer will follow. The requester is not a
random office worker but a director of that institute.
All that is happening is we're delaying getting this request to the
party that actually has the authority to grant permission, namely V.P.
Branding, Since the trademarks@ mailing list does accept attachments,
isn't the easiest resolution to ask them to forward their request to
trademarks@ ???
I don't think the request is time critical. Otherwise, I would certainly
have taken action before. The request is also not about using the OpenOffice
trademark, but about reusing materials from the old wiki for curricula. That
should already been licensed under Creative Commons or similar. I don't
think trademarks@ need to be involved.
However, you seem right in this case that things sometimes don't work. I
want to upload the PDF to a web space so I can send a link to the list. Does
Apache have a public FTP server where one may put such documents?
If you have the PDF you could put it on your people.apache.org
directory. All committers have this ability.
You need to use scp to get the file uploaded. You can create a
public_html directory and put the PDF there.
See: http://www.apache.org/dev/new-committers-guide.html#personal-web-space
That did the trick. Thanks! :-)

That would make the info public. If the information is confidential,
then you can share it with the PMC by checking it into:
https://svn.apache.org/repos/private/pmc/incubator/ooo (assuming it
has not moved yet)

Please, do not send one request for permission per every screen shot.
Just
contact this list (ooo-...@incubator.apache.org) and describe your
concern
in general. I'm sure we'll find an easy solution.
For now, I'm not moderating your other messages through because the
attachments will be stripped of anyway.
Best regards,
Peter
