[libreoffice-marketing] Re: Wikipedia editing.

Hi Simon,

IMO, unfortunately, I find all of the OpenOffice.org wiki page debate 
quite distracting to our project. I am afraid that it is a debate that 
we will never win and one that will most likely outlast us all on the 
project if we keep it up.

I myself would rather see us abandon the "eyes on" the OpenOffice.org or 
AOO Wikipedia pages and let AOO mess it up on their own ... it looks 
like they have enough help from some characters there. We would be 
better off watching our own LibreOffice Wikipedia page and keeping 
correct history there. LibreOffice has the momentum and has clearly 
overtaken AOO and they are quite frankly, no contender to LibreOffice.

Let them follow us rather than us following them. They can do the 
catching up ... and a lot of it, if they can.

Cheers,

Marc

Let's get our LibreOffice Wikipage
