Welcome Louis :-)

> I first posted last week but over the weekend, was a) busy with other pre=
ssing things, and b) wanted to let others, especially new voices, speak=97n=
ow is the time to shape the new community. I've been involved with OpenOffi=
ce.org (and now the ODF) for nearly 11 years=97since the start of the proje=
ct. I, along with so many others, have long wanted it to be planted in more=
 open soil, so it could grow not just for one but for all. I applaud, there=
fore, the proposed move to Apache.

I hope we can all work together to find a great long term solution for OOo

> Tomorrow, the OpenOffice.org Community Council will hold a meeting to dis=
cuss What Now? It's not going to be our last meeting. I don't know what wil=
l happen to OOo as such. But I am confident that we've so far seen enough e=
nergy and interest to ensure that there will continue to be code and a proj=
ect making it.

Apache is community centered with an open culture. Please encourage as
many people as possible to come together to contribute their ideas
into the mix.

Robert
