The acronym was born to slow down the "I like I don't like" saga that developed immediately after the announcement, but I wouldn't call it "official". It's just a nice option, that probably sounds better in some languages than other. As for the library association, I think that we "users" have been to a number of libraries in our life to read or borrow books, but we don't know developers' libraries, so I don't see the problem. On the other hand, LO is just one letter short of LOL and LOO, and I would avoid feeding the borgs with such an option. -- Italo Vignoli Mobile: +39.348.5653829 - VoIP: +39.02.320621813 Email: [email protected] - Skype: italovignoli -- E-mail to [email protected] for instructions on how to unsubscribe List archives are available at http://www.documentfoundation.org/lists/discuss/ All messages you send to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
