Of course I took a look at it, because I was thrilled by Peter's quick response to my inquiry. > I think that there is consensus to publish the blog post by Monday. That would have been nice, but again nothing happened. Or am I overlooking the publication of the blog post? In any case, there is already a new request from an affected user in our forum? How long do we want to leave our users without information? > > After that it will be time to start preparing 4.1.9 release notes. > > Have you informed your users about Jim’s test build? Testing > sooner allows releasing sooner. I didn't do that after Peter accused me of writing "toxic mail" and I had to fear that any unauthorized publication of information would be interpreted negatively. I will make up for it immediately, trusting that this will not be interpreted negagtiv. gretings, Jörg --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@openoffice.apache.org
