Hi Jan,  are you having problems with your list subscription?  You
might want to check the list archives to see if you missed posts.

Sorry for stepping in, but discussions like this won't get us anywhere.

I think I see the point each of you makes.

One problem is that this list, by Apache policy, hosts all technical discussions and all project management discussion, as well as random discussions like this one where people tend to participate more often and in a more noisy way. So, we do have technical discussions here, but most of the messages (not of the threads) are non-technical. We could open a code@ list, but this would not be in line with the procedures commonly adopted at Apache.

And a second problem is that future strategies or plans are not discussed here. For example, I thought that Andre's messages about the new OOXML framework would then be followed by regular updates, like it happened for the Sidebar, where at the end more than 100 people were involved in bug reporting and testing. This didn't happen and indeed this should happen more often, simply as a way to keep everybody in the loop.

Regards,
  Andrea.
