Hi All, The community of volunteers developing and promoting OpenOffice.org have set up an independent Foundation to drive the further growth of the project - *The Document Foundation http://www.documentfoundation.org/* http://www.documentfoundation.org/ . The Document Foundation is the result of a collective effort by leading independent members of the OpenOffice.org community, including several project leads and key members of the Community Council. It will be led initially by a Steering Committee of developers and national language projects managers.

It will generate increased competition and choice for the benefit of customers and drive innovation in the office suite market. From now on, the OpenOffice.org community will be known as The Document Foundation.* * * *Oracle, who acquired OpenOffice.org assets as a result of its acquisition of Sun Microsystems, has been invited to become a member of the new Foundation, and donate the brand the community has grown during the past ten years.

I like all of them, but as you know me, I can't comment without any criticism... While both the larger and smaller address labels are really well done and not to be discussed from trademark POV (they don't contain the logo, while the gull orb is not covered by the trademark), the 2x4 stickers will probably need to become approved by the trademark owner (Oracle). As the trademark policy has not been finished yet, I can't tell you if providing the template to everybody interested in using the logo will fit the rules they will establish. Perhaps Stefan Taxhet or Louis Suarez-Potts can provide more information or grant usage - I CC'd them... From design point of view the logo seems to be stretched: it's borders are not as sharp as they should be. If such labels will be allowed to be created, I'd propose to use larger scaled bitmaps or vector graphics as basis for the logo. Best regards Bernhard PS: Your previews seem to be broken...

Why not gather support to program it yourself instead of Oracle? We all know the importance of having an online version especially when all others are offering competing solutions. Some ways to do it which I thought are as follows , feel free to add and suggest- 1) A signed e mail by community members..( We can host the application on wiki or some other collaboration tool) 2) A Twitter wave wherein all the community members start at same time and bring as many people as possible together to make it a trend on twitter. 3) Individual e mails by community members ( not too feasible) ... ...

Re: [marketing] OpenOffice is dead
Hi guys Have a look at www.docs.com Microsoft attempt to take on GDocs. Maybe Oracle can also some day feel like taking OO to online version...

To be honest, I’m not even satisfied with Office 2008 on the Mac; I run XP in a virtual machine to get to Office 2010 when I need it.

Our district is fairly rural and there are still plenty of homes with only dial-up or without Internet access entirely. For these families, OpenOffice is a great choice since they rarely have access to academic pricing on Office and can’t get online to access Apps. As reasonable access to the Internet becomes ubiquitous, though, Google Docs or Office Web Apps (even via Facebook) will meet the majority of student and teacher productivity needs. Am I wrong? Am I so dazzled by the pretty lights in Office that I’ve lost sight of the value of OpenOffice? I don’t think I am. The majority of the time, the students and staff I support tend to make use of Google Docs. Same for me. On my Linux machines, it’s rare that I’ll fire up OpenOffice, despite it being a solid choice for desktop productivity. That’s what the Internet is for, right? Because in addition to Google Apps, there is Zoho and Office Web Apps, all of which work quite well. I just don’t see much of a place in mainstream education for OpenOffice anymore. Pre-loaded on laptops and netbooks in developing countries where Internet access is unreliable or non-existent? You bet. But why use OpenOffice when most of your users can work quite well with Apps and licensing costs for Office are low for the small number of users who need a full-blown desktop suite?

Re: [marketing] OpenOffice is dead
This guy talks of affordable office.

Re: [marketing] newsroom is online again
Hi Andrew, Thanks for suggesting that. Hi Florian, Maybe we can also ensure that all the news release are shared on twitter also. Maybe the person who is managing the twitter account can take this responsibility and by retweeting it all of us can then spread the word. (For eg the Feb 11 news release is still not present in the twitter feed) I am ready to take up this responsibility if it is so required. :) On Tue, May 4, 2010 at 4:48 PM, Andrew Jensen drewjensen.in...@gmail.comwrote: On Tue, May 4, 2010 at 4:22 AM, Florian Effenberger flo...@openoffice.orgwrote: Hi Varun, Varun Mittal wrote on 2010-05-04 07.01: Can we also have a link for Twitter also along with those of delicious etc saying tweet this or share this on twitter...

Re: [marketing] hmmm - T-shirts anyonw
I would suggest maybe we can ask this guy to put up a stall at OOConference and provide discount to those attending the conference.
