John -------- Forwarded Message -------- From: VOLNEY AMARAL <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: John McCreesh <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Re: [logos] Permision to use logo, banners, etc of Openoffice.org Date: Wed, 24 Aug 2005 16:23:57 -0300 Hi, John McCreesh We are very proud to tell you that, as part of a campaign for free software, we participated in a State Conference of Lawyers in the state of Alagoas, Brazil. About 350 lawyers and Law students we expected, but, in fact, over 750 came. It was a tremendous success. We distributed 750 CD´s with OpenOffice.org, and some other free softwares, and we demonstrated it in a datashow (projector)along with some information about its use. People got astonished and surprised. Almost no one was aware of the existence of OpenOffice.org. Now we´re planning to give classes on how to install and use it. As to becoming a Community Distributor, I´ve subscribed the lists, but no answer was sent to me so far.
