As I was looking more into the CMIS protocol and different solutions for data repository, I realized that the SWORD protocol is also in large use in academia. I was wondering if there had been talk of also making LibreOffice compatible with the SWORD protocol? You can find a good short

It was suggested that someone create a wiki page that shows the step by step creation and use of a persona/theme for the LO users. I might even take a shot at it. Since the libo/program/edition/header.jpg info is not part of the current documentation, maybe someone could write up the text

I really think we need to advertise the number of downloads for each of our versions. Actually, if we combined them like AOO did, it would be very misleading. How many download of 3.6.5 and 4.0.0 has there been so far. How many for 3.6.4 vs. 3.6.5? That would be useful. Yes, there are a
