IMO, the only thing I would have a problem with is p.2, third panel, The
passage:
* "The LibreOffice user interface is available in many languages, even in languages
for which localized commercial software is not available. Support for over 100 languages
and still counting."
The separation of the last two lines ... the last line "languages and still counting" looks like it no longer belongs to the
paragraph and we should avoid hyphenating the word "languages", By convention, we should be writing "one hundred" when
writing in paragraph form which would fix the problem, but the number "100" has larger impact. I would then suggest remove the
bold sentence and just make "100 languages" in bold and this still seems to bring home the point that we support over "100
languages".
Marc, using spelled-out numbers in text is only "convention" if you choose to
follow a style guide that insists on that. In science and technology, using numerals is
as much, or more, of a convention, partly because numerals are more easily and quickly
understood by people with English as a second language. For example, our manuals use
numerals for that reason.
I'll look at your samples and make other comments when I get a chance.

Sorry about the delay. I looked at this yesterday, made a few tweaks
in the spacing of the leftmost column of the second page (your text
changes are fine with me), and then forgot to upload it. I've replaced
my earlier version of the US-Letter files. How is this?

Great! So let's go with this as the final version.
I have uploaded this version to the wiki corresponding wiki page:
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/File:LibreOfficeV.4.0.x-CommunityBrochure-GeneralInformation-USLtr.odt
I will be back with the other brochure sizes filled in with the text:
Community A4
Official USLtr
Official A4
We will not have to look at the text but only look at the formatting on
the page/hyphenation which will make our job a lot easier and quicker to do.
===============
The last item for this brochure-type will be to do a .pdf version. For
this version type. I would suggest we do this after we have completed
all of the brochure types; the .pdf version is less pressing and I am
not sure if we should expend the amount of energy working on the .pdf
version with clickable links at this time. We are in more drastic need
for the printable brochures than the .pdf versions.
===============
Cheers,
Marc
