I, for one, am subscribed to the libreoffice Marketing and the Design lists (among others). Both lists "managers" (sorry, can't find an appropriate wording here) have decided to go the Redmine route. I understand this is much better for the workflows. I have to say that I appreciate receiving news through the lists channels, even though I don't post much. Stopping these channels won't bring information any more to the public about what's going on, the design paths that are taken. Thus, to me, as I probably won't have much time to visit the LibreOffice Redmines, the project life will now turn to be much on the stupid users side and I shall be deprived from much insight. I think leaving the Design and Marketing lists is a big mistake. Many people might be like me: listening much and speaking little. The fact that there's little incoming traffic doesn't mean there's no interest. Hence, I join my voice to Florian's one and kindly ask for a second thought on both the concerned lists. -- Jean-Francois Nifenecker, Bordeaux -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: [email protected] Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/marketing/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
