Current agreement at 8daysaweek and oooforum:

While the administrators and moderators of this forum will attempt to remove or edit any generally objectionable material as quickly as possible, it is impossible to review every message. Therefore you acknowledge that all posts made to these forums express the views and opinions of the author and not the administrators, moderators or webmaster (except for posts by these people) and hence will not be held liable.

You agree not to post any abusive, obscene, vulgar, slanderous, hateful, threatening, sexually-oriented or any other material that may violate any applicable laws. Doing so may lead to you being immediately and permanently banned (and your service provider being informed). The IP address of all posts is recorded to aid in enforcing these conditions. You agree that the webmaster, administrator and moderators of this forum have the right to remove, edit, move or close any topic at any time should they see fit. As a user you agree to any information you have entered above being stored in a database. While this information will not be disclosed to any third party without your consent the webmaster, administrator and moderators cannot be held responsible for any hacking attempt that may lead to the data being compromised.

This forum system uses cookies to store information on your local computer. These cookies do not contain any of the information you have entered above; they serve only to improve your viewing pleasure. The email address you provide is used for confirming your registration details and password, for sending new passwords should you forget your current one, and other forum features. We may also send you occasional mailing list emails containing recent news. You can change your email preferences on our website.


We should add a section on the license for contributions.

A user suggested in Talk:Main Page, as did TerryE I believe.

Free Documentation License

--Ccornell 08:41, 14 September 2007 (CEST) The licensing is a very important part of the site. Just for reference... all Sun documentation is released under the PDL, and the OOoAuthors documentation is released under CC. This has caused a little problem from Sun's side when we wanted to reuse (with permission of course) some of the text created by the OOoAuthors group. Lawyers... what can you do? From Sun's side, if we license the forum content under PDL it makes life easy for us to reuse the text in the mainstream OOo documentation (eg: mine the forum for info to improve the application help).


By clicking Register below you agree to be bound by these conditions.
