As a native American English speaker and having never heard LibreOffice pronounced, I was very surprised to hear Fredrick pronounce LibreOffice exactly like I would pronounce it. +1 on the lousy Google translation. Christoph, I really like the idea of a video explaining LibreOffice. I think a LibO home page video is a great way to introduce users to LibO. There is nothing like a face to face to break the ice even if it's a video. -- Lyle Cochran www.bytepowered.org lpc...@gmail.com Ohio, U.S. -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to discuss+h...@documentfoundation.org Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.documentfoundation.org/www/discuss/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
