Not quite - but close enough to work off of - we have a specific design list with our 'designers' (we are amazing creative with ML names) Basically for graphics you can take an idea there - but it works as always better to go with something in hand, like your first take of the graphic, and then let them comment or maybe even tweak it. The OO.o ad under the Java installer is a special case right, as SUN owned both products. There was talk back at OO.o about doing a deal with Mozilla I think it was, that was a couple of years ago - it never came off. Not much on that subject sorry - it is a good idea it one of those rather long fuse deals, but if you know some primary folks in particular projects that you think might want to do something like this - then I would say just post it up to the Steering Committee list as in the end any type cross-project stuff like this is going to end up in front of them anyway. Again, this is FOSS so big points for actually bring in a working prototype, in this case name and contact information from the other project. BTW - updated Java on Joyce's Win7 laptop 3 or 4 days ago, the OO.o ad is still there - they cycle though there is the OO.o ad and 2 or 3 others IIRC. //drew -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to [email protected] List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/us/marketing/ *** All posts to this list are publicly archived for eternity ***
