The key phrase is "anybody who knows how the ASF works". Most people don't, which is part of the reason why the template for incubation as an Apache Project included "an excessive fascination with the Apache Way". What Dennis is doing, is making explicit _The Apache Way_, and hoping that journalists, etc will read that post, before they make their incorrect assumptions. jonathon --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@openoffice.apache.org
