I'd like to canvass opinion among the marketing project for the launch of a new theme: "Why OpenOffice.org"
The proposal is that "Why OpenOffice.org" will be a major theme of our campaigning in 2006 and for OOoConf 2006. The developments in the MS-Office 2007 story mean we have a golden opportunity to explain to the world there is a better way. The first task would be to create http://why.openoffice.org: - to explain to each target market why they should use OpenOffice.org - to convince IT managers, public administrations, governments, etc to implement the suite in their organisations - and to make the public demand that the authorities provide them with ODF documents instead of .doc files WHY will convey these messages in a simple, visual format, without the 'clutter' of the standard project pages. Examples of this approach already exist in some nl projects - http://es.openoffice.org is a particularly good example. The WHY URL will permit memorable URLs such as why.openoffice.org/publicadministration/ why.openoffice.org/governments/ why.openoffice.org/smes/ etc I believe there is enough expertise across projects such as marketing, art, web, and nl projects to create a stunning and convincing site. Are you in favour of this proposal and can you help?
