"Norway has become the the latest country to pledge funds for public

the national center for free software, and the terms of the deal are
interesting. Instead of general promotion of open source software, the
funds are specifically earmarked for adopting and promoting use of the
OpenOffice suite of productivity applications in government offices."

Sounds like a good PR material for us. I do wonder who in OOo is talking
to them. But sounds like something that could make OOo accelerate it's
visibility really fast across the board.
So question, can we get some of the OOo projects like 'Art' to benefit
from the promotional artwork that could be invested here?
