------- Additional comments from [email protected] Mon Jan 31 23:07:50 +0000 2011 ------- I am now moving my clients to libreoffice. After 25 years in the industry Oracle is now blacklisted from my consultancy work PostgreSQL will be my advice of default now. A company which fails to listen to users has no place in the supply chain. In laymans terms who would buy a database from a company who makes it hard for users to find their own documents by turning them all blue grey monochrome. My tests of Libreoffice vs Openoffice through all the betas and RCs indicate Libreoffice to have better compatability with a wider range of document types. For those who don't understand http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/ODF_icons_i-team here is a translation. Anyhow, we also know that the best way to get an i-team not to work in a productive way is to have clear and transparent nearly identical icons. There are a requirements that must be taken into account because we simply do not want a real change when re-designing the icons. These are the common blocking points of the main project and represent the framework within which the icons cannot be changed. But apart from these requirements, the process of designing the icons is open for any interesting but not different ideas. Requirements: 1. ODF IDENTITY = BLUE badge for worse communication-usability (senders & receivers can no longer distinguish document types which creates usage problems?) 2. CORE FUNCTION = FORM plus gray, black and white for 1980's antique feel (make users lose documents fast?) 3. STATUS FUNCTIONS = COLOR badges for emerging loss of collaboration-usability (make sure any users left recognise a document incorrectly before opening?)
