Another Release without Mail?

As Pavel pointed out it seemed that we would have to prepare another release without mail. The site suffered from the recent W32.Sober worm. Messages to mailing lists were delivered with a delay of a day or more.

The question how Reply-To headers should be handled by mailing lists seems to be discussed controversially. There are articles why reply-to mangling is useful or harmful. I think those subscribed to the lists can perfectly life with the current setting of OOo lists. I understand those that are not, but this topic shouldn't lead to such an interruption in communication as the mail delay does.

And Martin updated the OpenOffice.org 2.0.1 Release Plan. You will read it on the releases@ooo list in about 8 hours. :-(

Perhaps it is not necessary to remove the Reply-To headers from the lists but rather disable the mail forwardings @OOo domain. If this feature would be available only for project leads, marketing contacts and for IZ only, my guess is that a lot of the pressure from the mail server would've been taken away. just my 2 eurocents :-) ~cdriga
