Apache OpenOffice Mailing Lists

We welcome you to join our mailing lists and let us know about your thoughts or ideas about Apache OpenOffice.

Participation Guidelines

We ask all mailing list participants to observe these guidelines.

Specifically note the request "Use sensible and concise email subject headings". On our high-traffic lists, especially ooo-dev, we encourage the use of email subject tags that indicate the topic of your post. Consistent use of such tags makes it more likely that your post will be read by subscribers most interested in that topic. It also faciliates sorting and filtering by email inbox rules.

Some subject tags often seen on ooo-dev include:

Other useful topic tags can be found by observing traffic on the list or by looking at the list archives.

In addition to the topic subject tags, there are also tags used to indicate a request:

Note: it is common for a topic tag and an action tag to be combined, e.g.:

Apache OpenOffice is an effort undergoing incubation at The Apache Software Foundation (ASF), sponsored by the Apache Incubator. Incubation is required of all newly accepted projects until a further review indicates that the infrastructure, communications, and decision making process have stabilized in a manner consistent with other successful ASF projects. While incubation status is not necessarily a reflection of the completeness or stability of the code, it does indicate that the project has yet to be fully endorsed by the ASF.
