Of course, I cannot speak for OOo4Kids and I am not an active member of the OOo Education project. On 28 September he posted a short No LibreOffice for me statement that seems removed now; it was supposed to live at (URL includes ellipsis) http://eric.bachard.org/news/index.php?post/2010/09/28/No-LibreInfo-for-me-... Then I remember seeing an article about EducOOo aiming at being agnostic with respect to OpenOffice.org and LibreOffice but I can't find it now.

Hi Marc, On Thu, Oct 21, 2010 at 6:11 PM, Marc Paré m...@marcpare.com wrote: Le 2010-10-21 00:51, Jean-Baptiste Faure a écrit : Hi Marc, You should have a look at OOo Education Project and OOo4Kids fork. Whatever I think about forks ( ;-) ), OOo4Kids has several good ideas to adapt OOo to children. The main idea is not to add functions but to remove/hide the functions that are too complex or not used in educational context. Best regards. JBF PS. French speaking mailing lists are open : http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Local_Mailing_Lists#French Bonjour Jean-Baptiste: Actually, I think there is a thread somewhere on the mailists where there was talk of theming the LibO suite and some of this could be used to theme the menu list. There was a debate as to when you could theme, either at installation or after installation. I would prefer after installation and an Educational Theme could be installed that would change the menus list and perhaps add more educationally related extensions, cliparts, themes etc. Obviously this would have to be coordinated with an interested dev. BTW ... Do you know if OOo4Kids is supporting the LibO project? I would say no, but it's very difficult to know in fact (it mays depend of the blowing wind ;). As you're able to read French, I'll send you tomorrow some updated comments from Eric Bachard on several forum this last days, you'll be able to make up your mind by yourself. Of course, he can't bear several of us here, but that's not the topic.

[libreoffice-marketing] Marketing Material: Questions with regard to The Document Foundation and LibreOffice
Hi all, in the most recent Steering Committee minutes [1] there is an item that discusses the availability of marketing material. We know that there are several topics people are very interested in ... but are there some more? Did we miss something important within all the recent discussions? I kindly ask you to put add the points you are interested in - I've prepared a small list in the wiki. Starting point: If there would be some talk (10 ... 60 minutes) about The Document Foundation and LibreOffice - what topics should be covered (the must have)? If you think about adding some topics - do it now and don't wait :-) I think we can come up with a sufficient collection within the next days; what do you think? This way, please: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Marketing/Ideas#Presentation_on_The_Document_Foundation_and_LibreOffice Thanks a lot in advance!

That is something that was sadly lacking on the OOo site.

Hi Christoph I am just a little unclear as to what you are looking for. Are you calling for questions on any marketing topic that could be taken back for discussion with the SC or are you calling for more questions related to the availability of marketing materials and the SC will consider these? As for the 10 ... 60 minutes, is this the amount of time that the SC would have available to consider these questions?
