Hi Bret

You know that Oracle inherited OO.o by way of their purchase of SUN. 
Oracle isn't going to provide support for OO.o as Sun did. They donated 
OpenOffice.org source and trademarks to the Apache foundation and will 
end their support for OO.o mailing lists and archives.  There is far too 
much valuable information that was and is being passed in these mailing 
lists to let them and the archives just vanish. Apache will host new lists.

Warmest Regards
