One other thought.... A new documentation list should be ready soon.
subscribe and watch here for the announcement. If I remember, I will
email directly when I notice that it exists....
Sadly, I do not see the request to create the list at the moment....

Andrew;
Just as an aside there is no need to cc me to my mail account. I am
subscribed to the list thru gamane. I prefer to follow the mailing lists
via nntp when ever possible rather than mail.

The request was announced here:
http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/openoffice-dev/201212.mbox/%3C50C7768A.4020707%40apache.org%3E
The procedure does not rely on public JIRA tickets any longer: I'll be
notified when the doc@ mailing list is created and I'll send a note to
this list when this happens.
Regards,
Andrea.
