Re: [libreoffice-marketing] Microsoft MigratIon Guide
Hi everyone, Btw, since last year, we have worked in a similiar guide to support the ODF/LibreOffice adoption at the public administration of Rio Grande do Sul State, Brazil. We call it 'ODF Guide' and our target audience are project managers and the technical team of State departments: http://www.tic.rs.gov.br/download/20140110144028odf_guide___a_reference_document_for_open_standards_implementation_0.3.pdf In December 24, 2013, LibreOffice was finally defined as our standard office application. Now, all the State departments will have three months to plan their own Adoption Plans based on this document. This is just the 0.3 version and there is a lot of work to do ahead (improve formatting, correct some typos, etc.). The original version are being written in Brazilian Portuguese. The copyright is the same of the manuals from the Documentation project. So, the whole or parts of the document can be used/merged/adapted by the community. Best!

Re: [libreoffice-marketing] Some good news from Brasil
Hi! Thanks Eliane, Olivier, Robson and Massao. Your work with ODF and LibreOffice in Rio de Janeiro is an excellent example to us in other brazilian states.

Re: [libreoffice-marketing] Extension website - broader publicity wanted
Hi! Answering myself... from the Extensions main page: "LibreOffice remains committed to providing users with quality software authored under free software licenses, and, as such, our catalogue of extensions and templates are published under free software licenses." Then, I think it's important in the post. Best regards, Gustavo Pacheco. 2011/8/26 Gustavo Pacheco > Hi Florian! > > It's very good! > > I have a little doubt...

Re: [libreoffice-marketing] Extension website - broader publicity wanted
Hi Florian! It's very good! I have a little doubt... The new repository is only for extensions with free licenses, ok? If yes, may be useful (or important) include this information for developers in the last paragraph. I suggest something like: "We warmly invite all developers to submit their free licenced extensions..."
