I was thinking about the name and here I mean the name that is used for the folder etc. The name is used in the help, in tools option, in the menu... We changed "OpenOffice.org" to "Apache OpenOffice" so good so far. But would it be nicer to shorten the folder, menu entries, ... to simply OpenOffice Folders Linux: /opt/openoffice4 Mac: OpenOffice.app Windows: OpenOffice 4 Tools Option OpenOffice OpenOffice Writer OpenOffice ... Help OpenOffice instead of hundreds of "Apache OpenOffice" The idea is that the project and product is called Apache OpenOffice but in practice we would use in the product the short from OpenOffice. The intro, start center, about can of course use images where we use "Apache OpenOffice". Well it's just an idea and I know it would require some further work but now would be the time for it. I believe legally should it be ok today but it have to checked to be safe. What's your opinion? Juergen
