This is exactly the problem we have faced at OOo. People design and then dissappear. And to be honest, I can not blame them. People's priorities change, and sometimes they do not have time anymore to contribute to the project. On the other hand, we can also have a situation where the designer is overprotecting "his" design and wants it to stay "his contribution". This is why I prefer to talk about submitting a design "proposal" where other contributors may add or change things. With this in (open) mind we can reach more rather than just picking one "best" design and stick with it. The point is to create an evolution in the design until we have reached exactly that what would reflect the core values and goals of the community. Second, how do we want to spell the name of the product? Libre Office or Libreoffice or LibreOffice or LIBRE-OFFICE? There are a lot of things to discuss about before the actual designing can begin. -- Regards, Ismaël Grammenidis -- 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
