Hi Jean, all,

DistroWatch is a website, that gathers information about all available
Linux Distributions.
They have news about the different distributions (like when they
publish a new version, or
if a new distribution is created, ) they have also some reviews
about the distributions,
and, they are most famous for their distributions ranking.

Re: [libreoffice-documentation] Fwd: LibreOffice Guide in the Ubuntu App Store

2012-05-17 Thread Tom Davies
Hi :)
Yes, it gives a page of info per distro listing some of the apps.  A good 
example is the Pardus page (a Turkish distro)
http://distrowatch.com/table.php?distribution=pardus
If you scroll down you see the top-table shows which Office Suite the distro 
uses.  Then further down it gives the version number.  

If you check the release dates you might work out that Pardus was about the 1st 
distro to include LO as it's default office suite.  

DW has a weekly magazine type thing and this week they had a follow-up review 
of Calligra, some news about Debain, Debian-documentation, the UDS summit, and 
a review of a not-so-scary  BSD distro.  

DW is a great way of getting a good overview of the activity going on across 
almost all the GnuLinux, GnuHurd and BSD distros out there.  
Regards from
Tom :)

Hi :)
Ahhh, i didn't realise they charged a lot.  I kinda assumed they 
under-charged.  So, i agree about not advertising with them.
Apols and regards from

Their advertising rates are quite expensive, and to be honest I don't
see why we as the LO Docs team should be contributing to them, good as
they are.

 You are correct. We use Lulu for selling printed books; they deal with

[libreoffice-documentation] Fwd: LibreOffice buttons (with no subline) for external website use update

 Reply-To: market...@global.libreoffice.org
 
 Just FYI, if you are not part of the design team and happen to have creative 
 talents, we are in need of some LibreOffice buttons for external use. I have 
 left a range of sizes that are needed on the design mailing list[1].
 
 I know the design team is pretty busy with other projects, so, if you are 
 able to help out with this, it would be well appreciated. This would be one 
 less work item that we could cross off our list.
 
 Note that once the buttons are designed and approved, we will be able to host 
 them on our servers for external use.
 
 I have also left a list of links on the design mailing list that you can use 
 as referral and inspiration. [2]
 
 We would need the buttons in both png and svg. Svg will allow others to 
 localize the buttons.
 
 Cheers,
 
 Marc

 There is a Spanish localization effort which you could get involved
 in. The best way to do this is to write to the localization mailing
 list and make yourself known there. That way, you'll be able to work
 in coordination with other existing team members.

 To join that mailing list, you can check here:

Well, each language community is free to organize itself as it likes.
A given community might organize itself like the English community if
it has enough contributors, or might choose to have their

This is the global localization list, and will be read by people from

talking about an issue of interest to localizers/translators in
general, or for communicating with lead members of the localization
community such as Sophie Gautier (among others). But maybe not all

Sorry, I was writing quickly late at night. When I wrote the above, I
was thinking of this mailing list below:
l10n+subscr...@global.libreoffice.org

Anyway, there has been work started by a couple of Spanish
contributors on http://alfresco.libreoffice.org, but there is a lot of
work still to be done. Not sure if they have material stored
elsewhere. So there's plenty of things you could do. Thanks for
stepping forward and welcome to the LibreOffice community. :-)
