Indeed, JavaScript is the way to go. I was inspired by Fedora 9's countdown [1], which people could embed on their websites. The script that handles the countdown can be found at [2]. That's the easy part - the most important things are the graphics :) Regards, Ivan.

I thought it was Septermber 16th [1] + 2 weeks, but it doesn't matter if the fixed release date is not known yet - when we do know, the countdown can be added to the homepage. If people here like the idea, then maybe someone on the art list could design a graphic for the countdown - by that time, hopefully the release date will be known :) Regards, Ivan. --- [1] http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/OOoRelease30#OOo_3.0_Final - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: [marketing] OOo 3 countdown?
Hi Ivan, With the release of OOo coming up this month, what do you think about having a countdown graphic on the homepage? Popular Linux distros, such as Ubuntu [1] and Fedora [2] have used this approach, and given OOo's increasing popularity, I think it would help raise awareness about the new release. Your thoughts? that would be a good idea - but we can only do it as soon as we know a fixed release date...
