By my count we have now have over 60 individuals listed on as proposed 
committers for the Apache OpenOffice project.   I think this is a 
respectable start, though obviously the project will need to have a strong 
commitment to recruiting additional developers and growing the project 
further,

On the list are many names on the list familiar to me, some from the 
OpenOffice.org community,  some ODF experts, some involved in training and 
certification, some in globalization,  some from downstream projects, 
commercial and open source, Symphony, RedOffice, EducOOo, even some TDF/LO 
names. 

There are also a lot of names that I do not recognize.  This is good as 
well.  I may have need of some new friends soon ;-)

I think it would be good if the proposed committers who have not yet done 
so, could post a quick note to the list, to introduce yourself and your 
interest in this project.   Think of this as an opportunity to introduce 
yourself to your future collaborators on Apache OpenOffice.

Regards,

-Rob
