I think it is potentially confusing either way. There is no "German project". There is the AOO project, and there is a subset of people interested in German language conferences, the German portion of the website, etc. The way to limit the confusion is to give a clear description on the webpage where we list the native language mailing lists: http://openoffice.apache.org/native-lang.html So long as the description on the website is clear, I don't care if you call it superwunderbarp...@openoffice.apache.org Regards, -Rob > > Greetings, > Jörg > > > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org > For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@openoffice.apache.org > --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@openoffice.apache.org
