Yes I noted the date of this old message that Mary Compton forwarded to
the list. Look at the message headers and you will see that she
forwarded it to the list. Here they are:

My Apologies.

I thought you were referring to the post forwarded by Mary Compton. I
had not seen the recent ones from William W Austin since my newsreader
does not keep posts that old. (I follow the list as a newsgroup through
gmane rather than as a mailing list.

I did some investigating and searched the mailing list archive.
<http://www.openoffice.org/servlets/SearchList?list=discuss&searchText=William+W.+Austin&defaultField=author&resultsPerPage=40&offset=41&limit=80&forward=false>

All the 2009/12/14-19 posts by him are copies of old posts he made at
the indicated send date. For some reasons, all these old posts are being
sent out again to the mailing list.

The most recent current post by him was on 2009/07/19 "Unable to create
ANY NEW .odt, .ods, .od* files in OOo 3.1" which was sent again on
2009/12/14.

The newest post previous to that one was sent on 2007/12/17.
