[steering-discuss] Vote: decision on screenshots
Hi, I would like to call for an official steering committee vote for the screenshot issue. Based on the feedback on this list, this is the final version I propose to vote upon. Please do *not* change the text anymore at this stage, we really should get it finished now. ;-) "Screenshots for documentation, website and marketing should preferably be taken on GNU/Linux, but may also be taken on any other operating system. The Steering Committee recommends a consistent visual appearance (e.g. theming and branding) for the screenshots taken on the selected operating system. It is up to the LibreOffice community how to achieve that consistency." +1 from my side Thanks to everyone who worked on this!

Re: [steering-discuss] Proposal: how to use the GSoC money
Hi :) Thanks for clarifying that :) I think there are a lot of times when trying to spend nothing ends up costing a lot in missed opportunity. If you think TDF would gain a lot by spending more then it's probably easier to state the gain and ask.

Re: [steering-discuss] Proposal: how to use the GSoC money
Hi Thorsten, All... Em 17-08-2011 11:09, Thorsten Behrens escreveu: Hi there, with GSoC 2011 nearing its end, it's the time of invoicing Google for the organisation money donations, and the mentor summit travel reimbursements. Since we're an accepted SPI subproject, it's easiest to route the money that way (SPI is a registered vendor at Google). There are a few nice conventions on how to spend this money, and I'd like to make the formal proposal to keep them also here with TDF: * google pays travel for two gsoc mentors, to attend the mentor summit in october. conventionally, the org admins go there, mingle with the other orgs' admins, and conspire to make GSoC even better next year. note that this part of the google donation is earmarked for specifically this travel (google wants to see ticket invoices separately) * google pays $500 per student to the mentoring organizations; in past years, we've used that money (in part) to pay travel stipends for successful students, to attend the conference. Proposal: * accept GSoC money through SPI +1 * reimburse Fridrich and Cedric for their travel to the mentor summit +1 * offer travel stipends to successful students, for the LibOCon +1 * cap above expenses at $5000 (the amount we receive from Google) - or slightly less, does SPI charge us something for handling the money? Let's discuss and (if possible) approve this on this Saturday's SC call. +1 Cheers, -- Thorsten Regards -- Olivier Hallot Founder, Steering Commitee Member - The Document Foundation Voicing the enterprise needs LibreOffice translation leader for Brazilian Portuguese +55-21-8822-8812 -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to steering-discuss+h...@documentfoundation.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.documentfoundation.org/www/steering-discuss/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
