No, this is absolutely *not* true!=20

The "Verein Freies Office Deutschland e.V.." is NOT the creator of the =
PrOOo-box, but that's us (Detlef, Jan and I) three members of the =
AOO-Community in Germany.

You can see my entry here:
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OOOUSERS/Directory+of+Volunte=
ers

and I can gladly Jan and Detlef ask to register there.

The "Verein Freies Office Deutschland e.V. is the *only* one who pays us =
the hosting of the Box (850 euros per year).

*We would be pleased if the Apache paid. Apache wants to do that?*

> But these are still 3rd party distributions.

No, this is the Box of german Members of the AOO-Community!


But that is not the problem, because the question is a Others, namely =
how we can make local work on AOO when we can not even provide =
information users need?

A notice in a news-teaser is anyway only a temporary entry. What is the =
problem?


Rob, you have, tell me here on the list, the following:

* it's okay to get involved locally for AOO and Apache welcomes such =
activities

* I should self make a choice


However, I live in Germany, and here I know the OpenOffice users for =
more than 8 years, and I know what users need for assistance.
And we all have to do something otherwise AOO lost in Germany. Sorry, =
but that *is* the truth.


> So we are fair and we don't give special prominence to any single 3rd
> party distribution.

But that is *not* what is needed.=20

There shall be *no* permanent link, but only a *temporary* news-teaser. =
This teaser is automatically replaced by someone else, as soon as there =
are new news.=20

What is the problem?


Greetings,
J=C3=B6rg
