To answer Andrew's second question, so far as I know everyone is continuing with the name LibreOffice, and Sun more or less gave up OpenOffice.org because no one was interested in developing for it at that point.
I would be glad to assist on usability trials for icons-- it's been a huge gripe of mine when I tried to introduce people to LibreOffice, especially considering how they can alter if users install the LibreOffice-gtk variant from theme to theme.= (though I encourage following GTK on Linux builds where possible) 2011/7/11 Björn Balazs <b...@lazs.de> > Hi Andrew, > > if you like we can do user research to assess the quality of the icons in > order to identify those that are less usefull (and create better ones).
