A big thanks for this, it will be an enormous boost to the template effort. I was wondering if you'd like to take an active part in developing our template collection? If you were willing, you could help out by uploading templates to the wiki, and entering up links on the wiki page [1]. If you like, you could create yourself an author account on libreoffice.org [3], I could give you author permissions, and you could insert links in the templates page on the libreoffice site [2]? Do you happen to have time available for this, by any chance? If so, please let me know when you've created an account, and I'll give you the permissions. We could also look at which templates have been localized, and see about contacting the relevant NL site teams so that they can put them up for download.

We are currently focusing on the development of the libreoffice.org site in order to get the site up quickly. The site you are looking at has a longer term approach and is not going to be complete in the short term. We are organising a conference call soon to gather the website team together in order to better coordinate this work. It would be great if you could come along. I will add these items to the list of actions for the Drupal development, but I would not expect to see anything actioned here for at least the next few weeks due to the urgency of the live site. Thanks for contributing, and we would love to see you get involved in the team.

Hi! During the years I have collected several templates, please check them out here: https://ooop.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/ooop/trunk/extras/source/premium/ (multiple languages, sorted by original categories) Also we have license classification per templates: https://ooop.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/ooop/trunk/documents/license/ I hope this will help.

There is some concern about the lack of clarity on whether incorporating libreoffice (or other marks) into a domain name is allowed - this is an area people often want to tread on, and we should probably directly address it. Similarly - it does not mention including 'libreoffice' into a business name - I think we should simply prohibit that. So I suggest we add a clarification of both of these to the end of the "Non permitted use section". "Thus uses of the Marks in a domain name, or business name without explicit written permission from TDF are prohibited." That does sound sensible. We should also think about having maybe differentiated logos... I'm not sure. Look the Debian logos, very few people know the existence of the two different logos and their usage. It's already very difficult and time consuming to track the name and logo usages, I'm afraid that having different logos will bring more requests, more wrong usages and more difficulties to manage the whole thing. Another point is around the licensing of the policy itself; I suggest we place it under some sort of open license - e.g., creative commons attribution share-alike, or something like that, so other projects can freely re-use it. That is relatively easy to do, but I'd like to get Karen's feedback first. That's trivial indeed. Yes, Bernhard proposal also if I remember well. Finally - I just realised that I'd like the "substantially unmodified" clause to include a few more bundling bits: so "Substantially unmodified" means built from the source code provided by TDF, possibly with minor modifications including but not limited to: the enabling or disabling of certain features by default, translations into other languages, changes required for compatibility with a particular operating system -distribution, or the inclusion of bug-fix patches)." +distribution, the inclusion of bug-fix patches, or the bundling +of additional fonts, templates, artwork and extensions) Since that seems like it is something people would want to call LibreOffice and just extends the "package other translations" scope to other common things.

I have to say I didn't really understand that comment; but the answer was that Mozilla does not even allow to make a profit from the distribution of the software on a physical medium (you can charge a fee covering costs, but not make a profit on it apparently).

OpenOffice.org 3.3-RC9 ("OOO300m19") fixed two bugs from RC8 but
introduced a new bug, now fixed in RC10.
LibreOffice decided to essentially go back to RC8 instead, by removing
most of the new code from RC9 (so it's still based on RC9, but it is
actually mostly RC8 now). This means it still has the two bugs from RC8,
but not the new bug from RC9 and its fix in RC10.
I hope this summary is accurate, but for more details you'll need to see

Regards,
Andrea.
