Hi Juergen,
-1
I would object to this idea for a reason that already manifests itself
in the explanation you gave regarding the thoughts that lead to this slogan.
Why for some people like maybe you and me it would seem quite natural to
apply the terms "program", "application" and "app" interchangeable to
programs on mobile phones as well as to programs on desktop computers I
think quite a lot of others (probably more exposed to recent commercials
than to technical documentation) would associate just programs for the
iPhone or just programs for well at least some kind of mobile phone with
the term "app". Thus the slogan would be giving the wrong impression
that OOo would be something for a platform or a group of platforms which
in fact it doesn't support (iPhone or other mobile phone) why not
associating it with platforms it does support (Desktop Computers or
WorkStations with Windows, Linux, Mac, Solaris OS etc. on it ).
Kind regards,
Bernd Eilers

Hi,
just in the morning on the way into the office i had an idea for a
slogan and i think it might be useful in some way for our designs ...
It's a mix of "the 6 million dollar man" (US TV series) our fantastic
download numbers and the hype around app's for the iPhone first but now
for small devices in general. You know everybody need an app for
everything (or not ;-))
Anyway, the slogan is or could be
1. Openoffice.org
the
2. 100
3. million
4. app
1. should be the official OOo logo
2. should be highlighted in some way
3.+4. should be probably also highlighted in some way
What do you think?
Juergen
