I don't see anything wrong with the modified seagull ie the one without the ok gesture being on the school pages of the web site or indeed a separate OOo Wiki dedicated to schools or some such. Marketing to schools is not the same as marketing to corporates. IBM are rather good at marketing to corporates they have been spectacularly unsuccessful in attemps to break into the schools markets at least here in the UK. Main reason is that the culture is different in different markets. -- Ian Lynch <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ZMS Ltd --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
