Hi! I have been keeping up with the discussions, but unable to participate much lately, unfortunately.  In the marketing department, is there a newsletter or brochure that could be distributed at any event?   I am thinking that a design could be approved, then placed on the website so that

I do like all of these, but have to show you folks what my friend Reya Mellicker is offering - and she is willing to let Apache Open Office use it as you see fit.  If you need an email consent or something, I can get that as well from her. What do you think?

Hi all, Is there an alt description that can be added to the image link?  Search engines aren't smart enough to 'read' a picture/image - so the text within the picture makes no difference to the ranking - that is where the 'alt' description in the image source (src) comes in to play. This also
