I think we went through this QUITE some time ago, and decided to leave
the branding -- i.e. OpenOffice.org -- as is.

Please see discussions with subject "Refactoring the Brand" back in July.

I will make an attempt to document this on the wiki so it doesn't come
up yet again.

The bottom line was the feeling that OpenOffice.org is quite a
well-known brand and we wanted to preserve that.

I remember that we have decided (so far) to use a new name for the official software release but also to keep the OpenOffice.org brand to promote the software to the users and therefor to keep a well-established and well-known brand.

I propose that we rename OpenOffice.org Apache OpenOffice and

invite submissions for a new logo or logos based on these terms with a
deadline of end of November after which the PPMC decides it by vote.

You could also consider Apache Office, as all Apache software is open
source. But maybe that's too far away from the original.
