Re: Welcome to the community ( was Re: [tdf-discuss] LibreOfficeForum.org is now functioning )

Hello again,

Thanks very much, Drew, for your balanced, friendly response. And thanks
for the welcome, I'm glad to be here.

I didn't mean to sound angry or pushy in my last message, sorry if it came
across that way. I'm just keeping an eye on these developments and
responding to objections or questions as they arise. Meanwhile I'm content
to wait for the consensus of the community and take suggestions. At any
rate, the LibreOffice forum is available for anyone who wants to use it,
but nobody is forced to do so, of course. I'll be here to help as much as
I can.

Thanks again for helping to deal with all these needs of so many people.

Take care,
Sam
