Right -- there are actually 2 issues here:

1) The primary conference events/talks start on the 3rd, not the 2nd

2) The term "community day" may be confusing. We have meetings for ESC
and the Board, but (AFAIK) not for other parts of the community.


I always try to be in the other side when I read
something.


A good policy :-) So what would make sense for us? What about adding
something to the 2nd?

- A meeting or two for the community (QA? Docs?)

- A small event later in the day for both the community and other
attendees? Perhaps just meet up for drinks?

Cheers,
--R



Just to add my opinion:

Our real LiboCon runs from Sep 3-5 and the 2nd is our (the 
TDF/LibreOffice community membership day) to talk of internal 
matters/policy/planning etc. IMO, we should put the dates 2-5th on the 
logo, and when the logo appears on our site, we should make it clear 
that the date of the Sep. 2, is the day for TDF/LibreOffice community 
membership only.


This may in fact help in promoting and convincing LibreOffice 
contributors to apply for membership before the conference, and, we 
could plan on accepting applications for membership a month or so before 
the conference so that new members could have a chance to come to the 
conference on Sep 2.


Cheers,

Marc

Dear Community,

The Brazilian LibreOffice Community announces the nineth edition of
LibreOffice Magazine in Portuguese. Again, sorry to have the magazine
only in Portuguese, but there is no volunteers to help us to translate
the magazine for English. But I hope to have help soon.

In this edition the cover page was dedicated for the LibreOffice 4.2.

PDF file:
http://pt-br.libreoffice.org/assets/Uploads/PT-BR_imagens/Magazine/LM-ED09.pdf


We just want to share our iniciative.

Best,



Congrats to the magazine team! What wonderful work with the magazine!

Just as a FYI to members of this list, the BR team is using LibreOffice 
Draw as their main tool to put the magazine together, and also makes use 
of the Gimp and Inkscape for artwork. Very inspiring to see LibreOffice 
Draw work at such a high and professional level.


Thanks for showing us what Draw can accomplish!

I'm worried the logo of the event having the date 2, it seems that the

had the same thought, but I don't agree with that. This can be confusing
for the participants that are going to participate in the first time.

Sorry for my observation, but I think the communication needs to be very
clear. We need to think about the people who are not part of the community.

You're right but when the program will be online, it will be clear that
the first day is a community day and I guess those people out of the
community will look at it before coming. And if I remember well, on the
old time we didn't took this day into account for announcement, but this
was confusing too for the community.

Thanks Florin & Italo,

Strange, I am subscribed to the announce list and I have been looking
out for anything to do with the conference, so it seems I somehow missed
Italo's post.

I am not much of a blog follower, but I will be looking at the TDF Blog
more closely in future.

Hi :)
It does look a lot better with the 3 or more fonts?  This is for a
single event isn't it?  Is it still bad practice to use 3-4 fonts if
the logo itself is not going to be around for long?  It's more
eye-catching with the mix of fonts.
Regards from
Tom :)
