Re: [AOO 4.0 Branding Refresh] Call For Google Hangout

I ended up canceling, there was 1-3 viewers and it dropped to zero at one
point.  O well.

Anyways if people could review yesterday's presentation.  I'm going to
start suggesting we trim down proposals to a few we really like and see
what we can do to incorporate or improve on them.  Such as fixing scaling
issues. Etc.

Re: [AOO 4.0 Branding Refresh] Call For Google Hangout

2013-03-23 Thread Samer Mansour
Thanks John!

Here is a recording of the hangout: http://youtu.be/5MfexlZSZwg

Like Andrea pointed out its a different to consume in a presentation
format.  So I'm glad people are watching  I was able to communicate what I
was thinking visually.
What worked what needs maybe a little bit of change to make stronger.

I have to apologize to Alex, I couldn't figure out how to use the IRC
webclient, I enter #openoffice on the log in screen but no one was in the
room (or what I thought was the room).

Also have to apologize the hangouts in events won't stream to youtube, I
had to create a separate room, I couldn't update the hangout link in the
event.
I will post the hangout link here and on the google event in plain text
tomorrow for the second event.

Proposals look good. Appreciate new, larger proportions for important
information. Don't understand changes to branding and logo but they look
better.

Re: [AOO 4.0 Branding Refresh] Call For Google Hangout

2013-03-23 Thread Samer Mansour
Kadal were you able to join?  I think I screwed up the link when I went to
live youtube.
I will post the video recording, I was in the hangout all by myself, people
did join the youtube feed, it got up to 10 viewers at one point.

I experienced a new skill in running something like this.  So its not too
bad.
It did feel one sided, no one was there to have another opinion, but I
tried to be critical about logos what is strong was isn't.

I'm going to still have the even tomorrow, I'll be going over the material
again.  I'm going to go fix the google event so I don't have the same
problem I had today.

Andrea was watching I just got the e-mail.

I can't join the hangout, but I followed part of the live stream on 
YouTube, nice to see some innovation!


In the end we will probably go back to asynchronous conversation (like 
e-mail) to make the real discussions, but I like the idea to have the 
designs presented in video too.

Re: [AOO 4.0 Branding Refresh] Call For Google Hangout

2013-03-22 Thread Samer Mansour
Thanks Alex,

Since you took the time to provide details for a preferred chat solution I
will look into it tonight.

Before you pointed it out, it didn't cross my mind to use the IRC channel,
I had forgotten we had one. It was not out of malice.

I will see you at the hang out!

I can say the same about your chat service, I never used your chat system.
IRC is where the community gather 24/7, you just need to join in and you
dont need special password.

Re: [AOO 4.0 Branding Refresh] Call For Google Hangout

2013-03-22 Thread Samer Mansour
Hello Alex,

I don't know how to use IRC as I've used it twice in my life and I had to
download client software.  I'd rather just give people a link and they know
how to join on their own.
If there was an easy IRC web client that could be sent to people as a
simple link I would consider it for future meetings.

Re: [AOO 4.0 Branding Refresh] Call For Google Hangout

2013-03-22 Thread Samer Mansour
I've posted the event to facebook so it makes it into people's news feeds
tonight.
Hoping to get the public chiming in the chat room during the live video and
during comments and Q&A.

Rob can you grant me access to the AOO page on google+ so I can post there
as well?

Its kind of good to post to post the day before because it will show up in
news feeds on the social platforms.  Preferably a week before and a day
before and even during.

Re: [AOO 4.0 Branding Refresh] Call For Google Hangout

2013-03-20 Thread Samer Mansour
Ariel, I also hold the same feeling that we should keep the "orb" in some
manner.
I've proposed a flat logo as it is just the current trend, it may stick but
we don't know as its like fashion, what's fashionable this decade is
"horrible" the next.
Doesn't mean we can't have another refresh in the future.  Flat is
certainly screen and print friendly as well.

I just found out the limit is actually 10 people for my google account.  15
is if you have a domain registered with google for google services for
business.
It does how ever support youtube live streaming which I'll enable and post.
I'll take comments from outside the hangout via twitter if the room fills
up. #oobrand

I'll summarize and post before as well.

Rob, could I get facebook admin access to the AOO page, I could post a link
to the youtube live stream video just before it starts there.
It may generate interest if people watch live as we go through proposals
and discuss. Almost done agenda, I hacked away at it last night.

I like the orb as well and I like the new design from Kevin who did a
minor change and included a globe (see Gulls with globe 01 -
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OOOUSERS/AOO+4.x+-+Logo+Explorations)

More important from my point of view is that we come to a conclusion
soon. I can live with the orb with minor changes and a new font.

+100, a new own visual identity is very important. But is not easy and
more work.

He took the About from 3.4, the one from trunk looks much nicer (though
it will have to be redone).

I noticed two major changes in the proposals:

1) the ORB disappears completely, or is flatten

2) several logo explorations have a flat look too, very much similar to
   the one Microsoft has given to it products (the Outlook website,
   Windows 8, MS Office).

Ad (1): modifying or eliminating the ORB is IMO a very bad idea. It's
not only nice and well-designed, but it's also the OpenOffice identity
since it appeared. You can compare it with Firefox logo and its history:
since 0.8 it has undergo only a minor redesign for 3.5, that certainly
didn't change its identity.  vid.

proposal a strong resemblance with the latest look of the Microsoft
products; for example, the application icons in

great, there is already a good collection.

I would keep the proposed changes minimal because we need developers who
do the work on the changed design. Exchanging images is one easy part,
redesign and changing code more work, especially in our code where UI is
more work and can't be compared with for example Java swing ;-)

The About dialog looks wrong at least compared with the MacOS version. I
think it is not really different on the platforms. I have to check the
other platforms.

The offical product name is "Apache OpenOffice" but the normal usage is
OpenOffice. We have already changed the former name "OpenOffice.org" to
simply "OpenOffice". This means the installation directory for 4.0 is
only "OpenOffice 4" or "openoffice4". The string name references in the
product are changed from OpenOffice.org to OpenOffice.

"Apache OpenOffice" will be used in official public
communication/announcements and in the logo/logo artifacts.

Hey everyone,

Juergen, I've already started collecting artifacts inside the desktop
application and the websites, please feel free to add:
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OOOUSERS/AOO4+-+Application+And+Launcher
See sibling wiki pages for more.

The limit is 15 participants, its also 2 hours each so people can come and
go.
I'm hoping to have designers primarily during that time. It's why I I
thought I don't post to dev list.

I wish I had the designer's e-mails so I could reserve spots for them or
let them know personally.
I will announce it again on the marketing list 15 minuters before as well
with the hangout link.

I will also post the agenda as well soon on the wiki.
I'm really hoping this works and produces good outcomes. I've never done
this globally before.

I can't attend at the weekend because I am traveling but I am looking
forward to the result.

Just one reminder final decision have to be made on dev mailing list but
I expect that the team members come up with a summarized proposal of
what we have and where we can start to do some further selection and
kicking of the next steps.

I am collecting the images that we use in different places in the office
to get overview what we need for 4.0 in time.
