Hi,

just a quick update from my side on a few topics. Sorry that I am quite late, but the last days have been insanely busy for me.

So:
Nearly all Brazilian domain names now point to the TDF/LibO sites, and I would like to thank, amongst many, Claudio and Olivier for their support in these matters. Despite all that has been said, having the TDF domains redirected worked without a big discussion, so thank you again for that.

In addition, pt-br.libreoffice.org shows the TDF mailing lists. Again, thank you very much for that, that is really appreciated. Should you need more technical options, or more lists, let me know.

The domain name that does currently not point to the LibO site is www.libreoffice.org.br, but at least mid-term, to me it would be *VERY* important that it is also hosted inside the TDF infrastructure. I see that there is a lot of content from the past years, and I surely do not want you to remove that content, as it seems to be widely used.

However, what I do not understand is why it has to be served with the LibreOffice domain name. You cannot be using that domain name longer than eight months, as before, there was no LibreOffice. So, why not offer it with another domain name, and handing over libreoffice.org.br to the TDF infrastructure? I am happy to have it show a temporary information pointing to the new site, and we can also talk about a timeframe during that the domain still points to the site. However, after some weeks, it should also point to pt-br.libreoffice.org.

Regarding the legal requirements in Brazil: For .org.br, our ISP can *not* provide a trustee service, whereas for the other .br domain names, it can. So, as said, I am happy to arrange a trustee contact if needed with any of the Brazilian NGOs and make the content of the contract public. There's nothing to hide, and I can only emphasize this:

I want to work with the Brazilian community at large, not taking sides, but rather working united, speaking out with one voice. And I have a feeling we're coming closer to that.

Thanks to everyone who contributed.

Florian
