Even at the World Climate Conference attendees meet face-to-face, 
because there are certain aspects of interpersonal communication, that 
only work that way. Nonetheless the OOoCon 2011 can certainly be a 
milestone towards an eco-friendlier community. A lot of OOoCon attendees 
put some money aside over the year, so they will be able to afford the 
trip. How about asking attendees to spare some carbon footprint during 
the year for the OOoCon? For example using computers 30 minutes less a 
day. Of course, candidates could also include measures to protect the 
environment in their applications for the Call for Papers. In Orvieto it 
was great, that one was able to reach everything by walking. Providing 
facilities, like live streaming of sessions, to enable virtual 
attendance as individual decision is also very important.


But! A virtual only OOoCon will certainly gets a -1 from me.

Best regards,
Peter

 Perhaps we should send them a suggestion that they use OOo in the 
interim.  :D

Hi!

Here is a new one... slightly changed perspective and modified OOo colors 
matching blue cubes.

>From taody's releases meeting: "We are in good shape based on todays
status to release OOo 3.2 RC1 end of this week. that will be the OOO320m8"

If there are no showstoppers in the RC, this would suggest public
availability of 3.2 in 2nd week of January 2010.

It's approaching the time of year when we start asking for proposals for
OOoCon (OOoCon 2011 this time). As our contribution to reducing OOo's

Hi!

A closer spiral results in loosing the O shape effect. I played with changing 
perspective, but cubes really look great with 45°. I will make a new sketch 
with a smaller size spiral and OOo top/bottom.

Hi,

the logo have to be exempt from the cubes. Maybe we can put the cubes 
under the logo and can make the spiral closer.

overall picture. I will clarify if we are allowed to modify it slightly
