So, if getting sales is only a function of a really good website - I would really suggest that you enter the market, make a fortune -and- contribute that back to LibreOffice =) all are welcome in the ecosystem. Beyond that - creating, maintaining and translating a website into a handful of languages is an expensive hobby. Another (fading) problem is that what most of us love to do is to write FLOSS code that improves our customers' lives and to contribute it to LibreOffice =) You're right - we probably should spend less on that, and more on finding FLOSS-friendly people that like to produce polished marketing copy (CV's to my inbox) - but perhaps you can forgive the imbalance. > Is that the online edition, or the desktop > edition? Is that Tier 1 or Tier 2 support? Worth digging out my mail on the counter-intuitive negatives of answering all questions on your web-page =) ATB, Michael. -- michael.me...@collabora.com <><, GM Collabora Productivity Hangout: mejme...@gmail.com, Skype: mmeeks (M) +44 7795 666 147 - timezone usually UK / Europe -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: board-discuss+unsubscr...@documentfoundation.org Problems? https://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: https://listarchives.documentfoundation.org/www/board-discuss/ Privacy Policy: https://www.documentfoundation.org/privacy
