Re: [marketing] What to do for 10 years OpenOffice.org?

[Rosana Ardila Biela]

Hi, I'd like to propose a way of celebrating the 10 years of OOo. We print frisbees with the OOo symbol and distribute them at the OOoCon. The frisbees are our "Freedom Frisbees" (Thanks Florian for the name :) ) and would be handed (or thrown) from one community member to another, in the same spirit of the free and open source software. To make this visible to everyone, community members all around the world could do photos of the symbol/frisbee and show where OOo is used and how far it has come in the 10 years. In October for the celebration of the 10 years we would have a "family photo album" of OOo with photos from all over the world. If someone has also an interesting story to tell about OOo (like how it helps its region), that would be also part of the photo album. The idea is to make the frisbees go from one community member to another (or user) and never to stay too long on the same hands and to have as many photos as possible. Those photos can also be a great help for marketing materials. I've checked some offers in the internet and frisbees are available starting at 0.50€ p. Let me know your thoughts on this, I posted it to the wiki also. Regards, Rosana On 06/30/10 12:40, Florian Effenberger wrote: Hi, thanks to everyone for their reply! I've just set-up a wiki page at http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/10YearsOOo and compiled all ideas there. Please add your ideas as well, so we have a good reference on what we've come up with. Thanks!
