So - whatever the rights and wrongs of this issue - and I suspect poor communication is near the root of it all; there should clearly be no barrier to -anyone- contributing to LibreOffice. ie. we accept code changes, translations, artwork etc. based not on the language, color of skin, creed, odd views of author, corporate affiliation or not etc. etc. - but purely on merit. So :-) hopefully there should be no barrier to your continued concrete contributions getting included, and I look forward to reviewing them. Having said that - this is a developer list; and (given what I write above) this is emphatically not a developer issue - so please use the right list for this: ie. take it elsewhere - the 'discuss' list perhaps. As/when you have code, please bring it here :-) All the best, Michael. </blockquote><div> We the Brazilian Community are sorting things out, sory for the rant, it *should* not happen again.
