So far the Ubuntu Artwork Team has been about design and artwork for Ubuntu and Ubuntu-specific projects. While I can only encourage our members to work in other FLOSS projects, too, I have my doubts that our team is the right forum. Or that we should be represented as a unit here.

I think such requests and specifications should be managed inside the LibreOffice project. (The concept of a project-neutral online platform for managing assets, requests for artwork/design, structured design processes ... has been floating around and discussed at UDS a little bit.) -- Thorsten Wilms thorwil's design for free software: http://thorwil.wordpress.com/ -- E-mail to [email protected] for instructions on how to unsubscribe List archives are available at http://www.libreoffice.org/lists/marketing/ All messages you send to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
