Hi :) LibO or LO are quite often used in the lists but Marketing said that the full name needs to be used where-ever possible due to the sharp name-change. They said that usually the 2 names would be used alongside each other for a long while in order to transfer the brand-recognition from one to the other, typically years.
Imagine if Nike changed their name and logo! When "marathon" changed to "snickers" they lost a lot of loyal customers (dunno how they measure this or really know it). It took a long time to build sales back up, apparently. Granted that it's a different bottle of crisps for us but same idea applies. I don't really understand except from Naomi Klein's book "No Logo". But the marketing team asked for it and i see no reason to ignore their advice.

For LibreOffice, should I use LibO >rather than LO? We have been avoiding using an abbreviation, as there has been no real consensus about what abbreviation to use. Some books, such as the Getting Started guide, were done before we had sorted out some of the consistency issues, so you'll find it both internally inconsistent and not consistent with some of the other books. This will get sorted out in time. > QUESTION: > In the document, I found new text that reads similar to: > > click Tools → Options → LibreOffice → General and tick the box <snip /> Thanks, Andrew!
