Hi,

As soon as the paperwork is done, then somehow, somewhere, having items
to sell that will see money from it go into TDF/LO's accounts for
running the business and marketing the product will be helpful.  Can you
imagine what it would be like to go to a software convention, or other
type, with 10 or more people wearing logo shirts with some great phrase
about why you should switch to LO?  People see it and might wonder what
it is and then look it up at home, or come over to talk to one of the
people wearing the shirts.  It would be interesting to find a place that
offers good prices on placing a large logo on the back of a light jacket
or sweatshirt, with something on the front as well.  Walk down the
street, people follow and see the logo with a URL.


having merchandise for the team members and for externals to buy is 
definitely on the agenda. We have already been looking into shop 
options, and having local NGOs producing and selling merchandise 
materials is also on our agenda. :)


Just takes some time, but definitely is an important part of marketing.

FYI I have been experimenting a little with

all revinue goes to the Danish community.

 Then plz consider me as a candidate

it seemed that there is none of the others, that were interested first, applied

the function of a manager on the extensions- and template website. I have no 
issue to 
serve with more than one co-manager of the site.

But for now we'll go with two managers. I'll give you the rights of a manager.

Please look around inside the admin site of the plattform first and ask 
questions, if 
something is unclear.

Re: [libreoffice-website] Changing donation URL on LibO homepage

Right now, I am looking into a company that is doing Polo shirts, with 
embroidered logos, for under $5 each.  I will be buying some for testing 
how good they are, but with a different organization's logo on it.  
These will be for hand-outs using an internal raffle, so the low price 
is good.  Hopefully the quality is good.


So, if someone like me would order a number of polo shirts, and other 
items with the LO logo on them, then sells some, WHO is the USA person 
who does the marketing for this region.  Who is in charge or tries to 
coordinate the shows that are in this region of the world?


If someone earns money for the USA region with the idea of some of it 
going to USA/Canada marketing, who would be the person that would get 
the money to distribute it towards the marketing costs for the shows and 
events of this region?


Now that there is a donation site being worked on for LO 
[International], I am wondering about regional marketing monies 
donations, when they come.

the topic of local NGOs and money collection is one of the topics for 
the Paris conference. For coordinating on events, we have a dedicated 
marketing@us mailing list where many US marketeers are subscribed to ;)

thanks! Maybe you can share your experience with us, how things went, if 
you'd recommend Spreadshirt? Thorsten Behrens IMHO is looking into 
various options, and we could benefit from your experience ;)

[libreoffice-website] I need help for the wording to describe the two lines

2011-10-03 Thread webmaster for Kracked Press Productions


I need help with the wording for describing the differences between the 
to LO lines 3.3.x and 3.4.x.


http://libreoffice-na.us/multi-version/install.html

I am working on an archive-style of multi-version install pages for LO.  
This will have my online version of the archived LO installs that are 
used in the NA-DVDs, so there is a limited number of language and helps 
packs listed.


I would like help with the detail descriptions.  I know that 3.3.x is 
the most stable and 3.4.x is the cutting edge, but soon 3.4.x will 
be able to be used for business and enterprise use.


In 4 months the 3.5.x line is due to come out and the last of the 3.3.x 
line is due out at the end of next month.


I want the proper text stating that 3.3.5 will be supported for 
another year?  Plus the fact that 3.4.x will be taking over the most 
stable role when 3.5.x line comes out.


I really am not that great with my explanation after my last stroke, so 
I could use some help here.


I would like to list the LO official archive site, if there is one.

This archive-type of site/pages is something I would like to keep 
going.  I do know that there has been some requests for previous version 
on the lists, and till now, I had the previous versions in the same 
folders as the current versions.  Now I want to have the previous 
version listed on this site/pages.  Right now, there are links to the 
current version only.  Maybe next week, I will have the previous version 
linked as well.


So, any help or text suggestions would be appreciated.
