"After writing articles about OpenOffice.org over the last few

email discussions. To spare them, I have devised a series of
generic comments for articles about OpenOffice.org-- ot just mine,
but anybody's.
"To respond to an article with a generic comment, all readers
need to do is post the number of the comment they wish to make.
Eventually, we hope to automate the process using NewsForge's
polling software..."
