Re: [libreoffice-marketing] Re: Official/Community pamphlet types proposals

Hi :)  
Ahah, i vaguely remember reading that note in his books.  perhaps we could have 
something similarly short for other authors to use if they want to?  CC-by-SA 
for when they find a better way to word it!  
Regards from 
Tom :)

Re: [libreoffice-marketing] Re: [libreoffice-website] on the new download and donate page

[Florian Effenberger]

Hi,

Goran Rakic wrote on 2013-04-12 21:32:


Great to hear this!

I am not sure if my proposal gives enough focus to donations compared to
the redirection as it is now.


I have no idea - I think it needs to be well balanced. We do see it 
makes a big difference (the flow of donations continues today), so maybe 
it's also an idea to improve the current "full page" to eliminate the 
glitches. But after a long week of travelling, I'm a bit too tired to 
think about it in detail. ;-)



If others agree, I would like to create a wiki page were we could list
some ideas and compare to what other free software projects are doing.


Thanks a lot - that'd be great! Sure, go on! ;)

Florian

[libreoffice-marketing] 4.0.2 DVDs are online - both the English NA-DVD and the German one

[Kracked_P_P---webmaster]

For those of you who want them, both the English NA-DVD and the German 
DVD is now online on the DVD download page.


http://www.libreoffice.org/download/?type=box&version=4.0.2

This NA-DVD 4.0.2 DVD version is the first to have the Windows 
"autorun.inf" added to it.  Therefore, for the Windows users, upon 
inserting it into the DVD reader, a dialog will pop up to ask if you 
wish to "run" the DVD or open it for use in the file manager [i.e. My 
Computer].  If you choose to "run" the DVD, your default browser will 
open directly to the Install Page, for the convenience of the user.

Good Night.

Look the link, the special edition LibreOffice -

Good weekend.
Never heard of this site/magazine, and I have been using Ubuntu 
since 9.xx.


You've been missing out! I've been reading Full Circle from the 
first issue. I don't think it's as well publicised as it should be, 
though. I heard about it through the weekly community newsletter 
from Ubuntu. --Jean




Well, I will read them.

The link shows parts 1-7, but the newest "issue" shows
LibreOffice Pt24.Intro to Math

Also, this issue states #71, so I have a few to read.  I wish I
could download them and read on my tablet when I have to wait in
waiting rooms and in lines at the store.


Full Circle Magazine is available in PDF and ePub formats. Won't one 
of them display on your tablet?


--Jean


I found their download icon [PDF]

But their display seems to not be in order of publication.  I 
downloaded, from left to right then the next row, and received some of 
the 60's , 40's, 20's and single digit issue numbers.  It seems that, 
for me, the issues are in either a random order or sorted some way I 
did not ask for.  SO, I downloaded 25 of them, and was told to come 
back "tomorrow" for some more.



update

Well, I found out my problem, I was looking at the wrong web site.

I was looking at
http://issuu.com/fullcirclemagazine
instead of at
http://fullcirclemagazine.org/downloads/ 



Well, now I have the entire issue "0 - beta" to "71" and the copulation 
issues as well.


Now I will copy them to my tablet [cheap Android] and will have them 
there when needed.
