Hi Thorsten, :-) On Mon, Nov 15, 2010 at 18:04, Thorsten Wilms t...@freenet.de wrote: You use sentences like if you have clear arguments against it, I'll drop the subject and OK, I'm ready to listen to all ideas against this. :-), but then you don't wait for even a single reply before you carry this over to elsewhere. In fact, I was responding to John's post, since he started this LibO-related thread, and since the thread I started on the LibreOffice marketing list relates directly to the communication and interaction I'd love to ignite between the projects. I don't think this is fair to either project (and wherever else you may be posting). Well, I'm sure no-one's mailbox is going to explode! As an enthusiastic user of Ubuntu Linux, a supporter of the recently-formed LibreOffice project, and a lover of FOSS software in general, I'd love to contribute towards breaking down the barriers between FOSS projects, and perhaps to put forward some outsider's ideas, even if people seem to find them unorthodox and convention-breaking. It's healthy and interesting to debate ideas constructively with an open mind. And it's intelligent and pragmatic to recognize and accept the learnings when all points of view have been properly examined. Well, my reply can be found right below your message, following that nabble link, now. Thank you for your time and goodwill in replying. I plan to let this thread sit a few days, to see what responses it brings, and then I'll post considered responses to all the ideas and opinions put forward. Note that I don't doubt that you have the best intentions. Thank you for that, Thorsten. :-) And I'm sure you do, too. I'd like to thank you for having stepped across the wall and made contact with the guys on the LibO marketing list. I hope it will be an on-going involvement. I really invite other people on this list to come and interact with the TDF/LibO people, too!

[ubuntu-art] LibreOffice Update
Hello Everyone, The LibreOffice marketing list is very active and I do not know of the numerous ideas being proposed what will stick. It is my understanding they want to open the logo design for submissions and this will be handled as a contest from their wiki. I do not expect specific tasks to this team as their membership spans many different communities. http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Marketing/Ideas I would be remiss if I did not say this is a very good opportunity and I will attempt to keep the list apprised of developments as they occur. I am aware other Artwork Team members subscript to this list so if I miss something please post. Cheers, John -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/LibreOffice-Update-tp30213422p30213422.html Sent from the ubuntu-art mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- ubuntu-art mailing list ubuntu-art@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-art
