Exactly. We have a single press contact address that goes to the PMC. That is because we have a single project. In most cases the request is in English and any of us can respond. Someone will often draft a response, circulate it for review and then send it on. In a few cases we've had a request for another language, like German, in which case we identify a native speaker of that language when possible. -Rob > > Regards, > Andrea. > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > 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
