It has been explained several times that the label is not supposed to please community members, but is supposed to communicate to the outside world. So, I have explained why "community" is not a good choice, because inside the open source community is distinctive for a version with less features from an "open core" project (and LibreOffice is not open core) and outside the open source community has a different meaning, which is misleading for non technical users of desktop software. > Should these not also be part of the list?

They message I have just sent to the mailing list explains why many labels have been dropped. Based on the discussion, the focus is now on the concept of a "rolling" release, and "community", "personal", and other labels are not in line with this focus. > Should not the final decision go to a membership vote?

My task is to put together a marketing plan which works, then the board may decide in a different direction (IMHO, using the "community" label would make the marketing plan uselss and would not allow to reach the objective, which is the sustainability of the project). -- Italo Vignoli - LibreOffice Marketing & PR mobile/signal +39.348.5653829 - email it...@libreoffice.org hangout/jabber italo.vign...@gmail.com - skype italovignoli GPG Key ID - 0xAAB8D5C0 DB75 1534 3FD0 EA5F 56B5 FDA6 DE82 934C AAB8 D5C0 -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: marketing+unsubscr...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? https://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: https://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/marketing/ Privacy Policy: https://www.documentfoundation.org/privacy
