Re: [steering-discuss] Reducing donation ads

Hello,

Thanks khirano for your reconstruction efforts and your frequent updates
from Japan.

For those who haven't followed, khirano asked the OpenOffice.org
community (for the broadest possible meaning of this term, I'd say) for
help; donations are being collected using the existing channels, see
http://openoffice.org/projects/qa/lists/dev/archive/2011-03/message/39
and the first donations have already been sent him.


we had a hard time thinking of what is right - but we received lots of 
feedback from Japan, also from people who were directly affected, and 
most of them told us that TDF should follow its mission.


What I will do today, is to privately tweet some information from 
friends in Japan, to raise awareness and make people donate.

Re: [steering-discuss] Wikimess & others issues

Hi Olivier,

Olivier Hallot wrote on 2011-03-22 13.31:


It is a bit of complain but anyway we should address this, the sooner
the better.

It becomes more and more difficult to find information on our wiki.


I'm not actively involved in the wiki at the moment, but I think two 
things will help:


First, we can structure information already with the existing tools. It 
just needs some patience and work. :-)


Second, as soon as Mediawiki 1.1.17 is in a stable state, Manuel wants 
to create the multilanguage wiki we talked about: There will be one 
global TDF wiki, and lots of localized LibreOffice wikis. It's still 
hard to say when this will happen, but I hope soon - it depends on when 
MW 1.17 is in a stable state.



Please add at least a "Releases" entry in the left side index.


I can do so, where should it point to?


On the download page of LibreOffice at
http://www.libreoffice.org/download/release-notes/, I would like a
pointer to the list of the bugs fixed and other improvements with slight
more technical details.


Agreed, that would be helpful.

Hi Charles,

Charles-H. Schulz wrote on 2011-03-23 18.04:


VoilĂ . SC members, feel free to vote again, or shout (but for the very
last time).


thanks a lot for managing this, and for your patience. +1 to the policy.

Just one small thing: Legally, marks do currently *not* belong to TDF, 
as TDF does not exist. They legally belong to OOoDeV, but I would waive 
the necessity to mention that until either OOoDeV has renamed itself 
(the annual meeting will decide on that in April), or TDF legally exists.


Another mark: Maybe we should add a version and/or a date to the TM 
policy, so we know which version people refer to. Like "TM policy as of 
2011-03-29"


And then a note: Google has locked our two marks for use in advertising, 
so I hope this will limit the amount of fraudulent sites. Anyone seeking 
permission to use these marks in advertising can also contact the legal@ 
alias and we can decide on exceptions. I want things to be as easy as 
possible.
