Here are the small (Auto) size icons using the Automatic (Tango) style http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2347109/LO_3.5.0RC1_Small_icons.png and here are the large size icons http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2347109/LO_3.5.0RC1_Large_icons.png This is under Windows XP Pro x86 SP3 There is no need for you to do the same.

Please understand: I don't have a particular fetish with floppy disks. I just think it that it doesn't make sense to change things that users rely on just because you can.

[tdf-discuss] LibOCon proposals
Hello, we have received two proposals for this years' LibreOffice Conference - thank you very much for your applications! My proposal for the voting process is as follows: - I would like to make the proposals public immediately, by uploading them to the wiki, and sending out a short notice to announce@tdf - For the timeline of a week or so, the community can ask direct questions to the proponents, should something be unclear in their proposals - After that, we will initiate the voting - For voting, I propose to use a simple majority vote, i.e. the proposal having more votes will host the conference - The candidate not succeeding this year can propose for 2013, but it will not automatically be preferred there (since we already called for 2013 proposals as well) - Where I'm a bit undetermined is the voting scheme itself - One option is to allow every subscriber to the announce@ lists to vote (after e-mail confirmation in the voting system itself), - another one is to allow only TDF members to vote. The latter one would exclude "joke" votings like we have seen them in the past, but exclude many eligible people. - A third option would be to send out a voting invitation to everyone subscribe to a set of mailing lists (e.g. discuss@, announce@ and so on), but send them a private token. That way, only active people in the project could vote, but TDF membership would not be necessary. What do you think?

Is it a big technical and/or manpowering effort to do it in that way? not really, if we can agree on a sane set of mailing lists. ;-) E.g. I'd use announce@, discuss@, and maybe one or two more lists (probably the developer list makes sense). Getting subscribers from all over 100 lists is a rather tedious task. ;-) Florian -- Florian Effenberger Chairman of the Board at The Document Foundation Tel: +49 8341 99660880 | Mobile: +49 151 14424108 Skype: floeff | Twitter/Identi.ca: @floeff -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to 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/discuss/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted

Hello, Florian Effenberger wrote on 2012-01-23 08:07: we have received two proposals for this years' LibreOffice Conference - thank you very much for your applications! I just was privately contacted by a third proponent. They tell that due to internet connectivity issues during the weekend, they were not able to retrieve the CfL, and thus not be able to create a proposal in time. Their question is, whether they can work on it today and send it in. My *personal* opinion is that it would be unfair to others to extend the deadline, so I would propose them to send in for 2013 instead. Everyone had a fair chance and the deadline was well known - but I'd like to hear your thoughts on that.

There was enough time for preparing a proposal. I am asking myself, if someone who starts too late, without any buffer time for unexpected difficulties, really qualifies for organising such a big and complex event.
