Respectfully; The opposite of missing is found. I was reacting defensively but there it could be interpreted that way by someone without context (like me). On the brand expert that offered his time to help; He may be right. I come from a market/survey research background so my default is data over expertise (even if I was talking to Jon Hamm's Madmen character or Steve Jobs). Maybe I'm wrong but my opinion is different. I agree with your Iceberg chart that people who are interested and hold certain values/ideals might not accurately reflect the overall userbase that generally don't care. Your branding expert is possibly correct in their assessment that Personal is better. But alarms are going off in the heads of me and other FOSS supporters/ideologues on the implications of the term. Hard to balance interests. Just my 2 cents. > On 15/07/2020 13:19 Italo Vignoli <it...@libreoffice.org> wrote: > > > On 7/15/20 6:36 PM, Kev M wrote: > > > I still don't like slide 46: "...focused on needs of individual users" - > > Why can't it say only "you are using the volunteer supported version of > > LibreOffice" - or "you are using the volunteer supported version of > > LibreOffice, this version does for enterprise/professional support > > services please see [URL to Enterprise page]" > > That has still to be discussed. > > > Slides 49 & 50: > > I think the board will have to vote on this.
