Hi Gurus!

Hello all,
(cutting the previous thread for the sake of clarity).
I wish to appease this debate but weigh in it as well.
:o) It is not a cruel debate :o)
While it's true that OpenOffice.org "Premium" is a rather unfortunate
name in a marketing sense (it really sounds like something you
actually pay),
The "Premium" word is something better in my world ... But I am open
for any cool name suggestion...
and while I certainly see the advantages of bundling OOo with extra
fonts and templates
me too and other users too
, I wonder what you do concerning the promotion of the actual
OpenOffice.org software in Hungary.
The promotion is coordinated by FSF.hu Foundation. They for to spread
free softwares in Hungary including OpenOffice.org. I try to do my best
and I communicate with the Hungarian media about OpenOffice.org. There
is not to much progression here. We haven't got money to advertise our
free world in wide, but lots of media get informed about OpenOffice.org
related news. All of IT related mags release our news, the suite is in
the printed medias' DVD/CD set. Over the IT mags we haven't too big
name. They are not interested in... With the Get legal campaign I would
like to create some posters to make Openoffice.org more known. Of course
I will discuss it with András Tímár (our lead)... That's all...
Please take no offense in this.
Oh, I am not :o) We just talking about - in my opinion - something cool :o)
But it's really a question I would like to ask. By stressing on the
"Premium" rather than on OpenOffice.org itself,
I don't want to hurt the image of OpenOffice.org via OpenOffice.org
Premium. Instead of this we prefer OpenOffice.org and we provide
additional link to download OpenOffice.org Premium... The all
hu.openoffice.org is about Openoffice.org not from Premium... Evry
communication tals about OpenOffice.org not from Premium... So we (or I)
do not harm OOo downloads moreover we can collect more user for
OpenOffice.org with Premium...
you may end up harming the actual software's image more than anything
else. It's of course a discussion you should have inside the
Hungarian-speaking OOo community. And by the way, how does all this
fit in the overall community works of the HU community?
Contributors have created Slackware, UHU (Hungarian Linux variant),
Gentoo packages for Premium, the users like the idea of bundled
extras... The our community members were sceptic about success but the
voice of people was quite demonstarative. It is high time to did same
with you :o) What more can we do? Yes, we can create more language
versions (en-US and de for 2.0.3) with the help of OOo community and try
to push it into the main branch (with the help of OOo community)
How do you sort out the licensing issues?
I try to take over the licence issues. I am not sure it is a real
problem concernind OpenOffice.org. I have agreement from aouthors to use
it Openoffice.org freely...
I certainly appreciate your dissemination work, but maybe a better
mutual understanding should be necessary here.
Right :o)
