[libreoffice-marketing] Merchandise - be nice to see LG phone cases in the list

2017-01-29 Thread Tim---Kracked_P_P---webmaster


I looked at the Merchandise page and saw all of the iPhone and Samsung 
cases.  I have used LG phones since the 90's.  Now I use a LG phone 
"LGL41C" bought from the prepaid service called Tracfone [see the "note" 
below for info about the Tracfone service ]. So it would be nice to have 
the option to buy LG phone cases, or cases for other company's phone models.


Also, I wish there was a code "source" that could look at the country of 
person browsing and then figures out the current about in their local 
money - like US Dollars or Canadian Dollars, or the Mexican money 
system, etc.  A 14.99 Euro cup/mug is a little over $16.00 USD according 
to a currency exchange web site.  Yes, the issue is the fact that the 
Euro towards US dollars keep changing and may change before you actually 
have time to buy it, so the "local currency" will have to be an 
"estimate due to currency rates can change hourly".


So what do you think?  For those not part of the EU money system, this 
might be a nice added option shown.  For me, I would use PayPal to deal 
with the Euro-US Dollar rates.


To be honest, I like some of the cup/mugs and I like buying "specialty" 
tee-shirts. It could be nice to see some lower price item, like 
"refrigerator magnets" in the shape of the "document icons" used in the 
logo and the desktop link icons. I have a lot of them on my fridge door 
and the metal entry/fire door. I also have a 13x19 inch paper printout 
of the LO logo on my door. [that is the largest I can print in my 
home-office] Of course, the local "merchandise print shops" will print 
up a lot of items and styles of items using the provided image file[s]. 
I have done that with a local organization I have been on the Board for 
7 or 8 years.  Made up pencils, carrying bags, mugs, and other items 
that did not need 50 or 100+ quantities for the minimum order.


If you need any "visual" on items that might work, look at the Kiwanis 
[International] web sites. http://store.kiwanis.org/ is a good place to 
start. I buy items from there every so often.



Note: For those who are not in the USA it is a very popular option who 
do not need a lot of calls, data, and text. You need to buy minutes 
every 3 months to keep the service going. For my phone I buy 60 minutes 
and I am actually buying 3 times that - 180 minutes - and get data and 
texts with the minutes.  All three roll over. I currently have the phone 
paid up till May 8th with 1758 minutes total.  I do not use this phone much.

How tall is it?  The one in Hawaii is above the rain clouds, most

when it rains blow.


For me in the valley where I live, there could be inches of snow 8+ 
miles in the northern part and the same in the eastern section, but here 
in my part we may not ever get flurries.  If we get a a few inches, the 
surrounding areas in the valley could have feet. This valley is about 
840 feet above sea level and the tallest "hill" is about 400 feet higher 
than this long valley that is at least a mile wide.


In 1979, we had brief snow flurries here in New York.  A few years 
before that we had 2 feet at the end of October.  So anything can happen.

Hello all,

What is the status of LibreOffice movie making and publishing for Aarhus

Sorry if I missed something but is that done and published?

Vu Hung.

No execuse for being brief on Android.



I forget. . .
When was the last update/upgrade to the LibreOffice for Android app on 
the Google Play Store?
I know that a while back it was upgraded on my tablet with all of the 
rest of my apps during that morning's download/install cycle that 
happens most of the time I turn on my tablet.


One day LO will have a Android package that works the way people want 
[subjectively], so those people can do their work on Android, like they 
do on a Windows or Linux system.  Once we get a good/great package for 
Android, and then IO9[?] for Mac's tablets, LibreOffice will be on most 
of the used platforms, not just Windows, Linux, and Mac.


It would be nice to be able to state this at a marketing conference or 
to a local business owner/user.  "We are on every platform you would use 
for you business. . . " would help get those 
individuals/businesses/organizations who are using Android and Apple 
tablets and Chromebooks more and more over "traditional" laptops and 
desktops.


The only problem, for me, is tablets do not have the storage and printer 
capacity that I need for my home/office setup.  I cannot get my Android 
tablet to print on my color printers without a "dedicated" Windows 
system to host the free printing app's print server.

[libreoffice-marketing] has anyone been keeping a list of migrations and such?

2015-10-23 Thread Tim---Kracked_P_P---webmaster


With the September 2015 Conference announcements, I was wondering if 
anyone has kept a list of all of these announcements.


It would be a nice marketing tool to have a list of all of the 
Countries, and their agencies, mandating [etc.] the use of ODF.


Also have another list with all of the Countries, Agencies, etc., that 
have announce the switch/migration to LibreOffice.  In that September 
announcement, there was a reference to "The Italian Defense migrating 
some 150,000 desktops . . ".  This type of information would be great to 
have in such a list.


If you have such a list of the number of systems are migrating, it would 
be interesting to have a estimated total of all of the systems being [or 
have been] migrated to LibreOffice.  If you can tell 
people/organizations, that 2.36 million [random figure] desktops/laptops 
have gone from MS Office to LibreOffice since September 2010, then that 
might make a positive impression.


IT IS a hard sell for marketers in the USA to convince people, 
organizations, agencies, etc., that there is a good alternative to 
buying/renting MS Office.  Having a list of countries, and their 
agencies, who are moving towards using ODF, instead of MS's file 
formats, and the numbers of systems that are moving towards using 
LibreOffice instead of MS Office, would make my life easier. Without 
"exact" figures written down, most people seem to think that I am 
promoting some badly created, flash-in-the-pan, software package that is 
used by geeks and not fit to run their business or organization with.


SO
has there been a list[s] created for all of these announcement "figures"?
Would like to have a link to it, if it is available.

LibreOffice 5.0.1 Open-Source Productivity Suite at a Glance

By Sean M. Kerner  |  Posted 2015-09-01

http://www.eweek.com/enterprise-apps/slideshows/libreoffice-5.0.1-open-source-productivity-suite-at-a-glance.html


below is the quote from "slide 1"


Ever since the LibreOffice open-source office suite was forked from the 
Oracle OpenOffice suite in 2010, its community of developers has been 
working to improve it. The latest evolution of LibreOffice, version 
5.0.1, came out Aug. 27 and provides users with new features and 
improved performance. LibreOffice bundles multiple components as part of 
the suite, including the Writer Document, Calc Spreadsheet, Impress 
Presentation, Draw, Math Formula and Base Database applications. Being 
able to import and export in multiple formats has always been an 
important element of LibreOffice's interoperability capabilities. In 
LibreOffice 5.0.1, Writer now has improved Apple Pages document import 
capabilities. For PDF export, the ability to time-stamp a document is 
now enabled. Manipulating images is now improved across the suite, with 
the ability to crop an image with a mouse. The Calc spreadsheet now 
benefits from improved formula handling as well as new conditional 
formatting capabilities. LibreOffice is typically available as the 
default office suite in many Linux distributions and is also freely 
available for Apple Mac OS X and Microsoft Windows applications. Here, 
eWEEK takes a look at key features of LibreOffice 5.0.1.

Tim just didn't want to prepare the image on  the server directly,

separately.

If people don't want to use the infra, we won't force them.


I wonder where the German DVD is uploaded? I thought it was uploaded to
our servers.

The German DVD is (or better was, as it is discontinued  in  its
dvd/cd media form) prepared on the server directly. Exported from  the
CMS (i.e the UI people get when  they insert the CD), etc.

Then it's just  moved  to the mirror directory and syncing is
triggered → distributed to the mirror-network.

ciao
Christian



In the beginning months of the CMS, I tried its interface and abilities, 
but I have Browser issues where my editing via a browser seemed to 
never work out.


My current editing process, locally, is quite fast, once I have all the 
file needed.  The CMS  editing process, to me, was just not working for 
me.  Until I make a new design for the html files, for most part, all I 
have to do is use a simple find/replace for change over the file names 
from the old version name to the newly downloaded one.  Then there are a 
few other edits to the html files, plus the creation of the DVD label 
files.  The whole editing process, less the downloading of the 90+ 
install and pack files, takes about an hour or two.  That is if I have 
the ability to sit down at a computer for the whole process in one go.


Yes, I has to download the files first, but my download speed is a lot 
faster than my upload.  9-10 hours to upload a DVD, while it tales 20-40 
minutes to download the same file.

Marc




I went to SF when the new design of the LO download page system 
changed to where it pointed to my web page instead to the ISO version on 
the server.


Then there was some issues with the process of uploading to one 
server, then someone had to move it to a different one or a different 
folder setup one that server.  Depending on how busy the assigned 
admin was, it could take days or weeks for the file to be placed onto 
the mirrors when the push to mirrors cycle came.  For SF, I knew that 
within an hour, or less, my ISO file[s] would be ready for downloading.


Yes, sometimes it seems that I/users could use a better option then what 
SF is providing right now, with the last downtime, but there seems to 
be no other free place where developers could place/host their project 
for free.  That really is true for files the size of a DVD ISO file.


They are looking into the possibility of a return of having a place 
for DVD developers to have their work hosted on the server system and 
have a place within the download page[s] for a DVD ISO file to show up, 
or change the existing page to show the TDF hosted DVD files.


We will see how that goes, in the future - near or not so near.

With the several day down time of parts of SF system, I have had no 
downloads of the ISO file after the 15th.  At that point I had 105 
downloads from SF of my 4.4.4 version of the LO NA-DVD .iso file. 
[LibreOffice North American Community DVD project's 4.4.4 DVD .iso 
file]  On the 8th, I had 30 downloads listed in one day.  This shows 
that there are some users that still want the NA-DVD project to 
continue.  So I will continue it, as I can, when I can, how I can.

The SF debacle with the GIMP Windows install file should not affect an 
ISO file, hopefully.  Since it does not depend on an executable file, 
such as .exe, to unpack and install the .iso file, there would not be 
any chance for them to insert some extras.  Well, that said, the only 
way it would happen would be for them to recreate the .iso file itself.  
The only thing that is executable is the auto loading the DVD's initial 
HTML file to the browser, within Windows of course.  I do that for ease 
of use for a Windows user, since the most OS downloads were/are from 
Windows systems.  Of course, Debian based Linux systems just show an 
icon on the open desktop when the DVD is inserted in the 
reader/burner.  Much prefer Linux's security, and free software, over 
Windows for most of my needs.

Nice stats and congratulations! And most of all, thanks for taking
care of creating the DVD.

It looks like the US is still the largest zone where a DVD is needed.
Although, if we were to market the DVD a little more aggressively, we
may find that the DVD may be popular in other zones.

Has the DVD availability been announced on the LibreOffice 
blog/FB/Twitter?


Now that you're mentioning it: no. But I do think we should put this 
ISO somewhere on our servers first before pointing people to it. We 
just got out of the SourceForge sh*tstorm - Let me ping the infra team 
for that.


Best,
Charles.



Since I rarely use Social Media - though I do have a FB account - I have 
not talked about this DVD there.  One reason why the USA has the most 
downloads is for the fact that the DVD pages are in English.  If I had 
the pages translated into French, Spanish, or other language, then it 
might have more downloads in those regions that use those languages as 
primary or secondary languages.



ALSO. . . .
If you have a faster access than I have, I have no issues for you to 
copy it to the LO servers.  Then I would have the LO server  as the 
first download option for the ISO file.


It takes me 9+ hours to upload the ISO file, of it makes using the Net 
impossible when I upload the file.  So I have to start it before I go to 
bed and not have any monitoring till morning. I then update my demo 
site reflecting the changes/updates.  That is about 5+ hours, since most 
of the time is for the new installs - currently 2.4 gig for 4.4.4 
installs with the added help/language packs I include.


Also, I use Filezilla for ease of use for SSH uploads.  Using rsync 
for SSH keeps telling me the servers are not available or not found, 
when Filezilla's SSH access works fine. [I have the SSH passcode/etc. 
setup in the .ssh folder]

2015-07-14 Thread Tim---Kracked_P_P---webmaster


Since July 8th, when the ISO file for my LibreOffice NA-DVD [English] 
when online, I have had 90 downloads.


It had been a while, due to hardware and health issues, since I was able 
to upload an ISO file.  These numbers tell me that there are people out 
there that want my English DVD available for download.


So here is the break down of the Countries where the system is located 
and the OS of the system that has downloaded it.


Top OS is Windows - 73%
Top Country is the USA - 26%

[hopefully the HTML table works in this post]

Re: [libreoffice-marketing] NA-DVD 4.4.4 ISO file uploading now

ready for users to download and burn a copy of the DVD.

So hopefully by 12:00 Wednesday UTC, or sooner, it will show up on the
following link:

https://sourceforge.net/projects/libreofficenadvd/files/4.4.x-versions/

Just a tought - SF has a pretty funky reputation these days..perhaps we (the 
document foundation) could host the NA DVD directly?

Best,

Charles.

Tim,




I use to have TDF host my ISO files, but after a while it was easier for 
me to just use SF's hosting options.


The 4.4.4 ISO file is online and accessible now.
Here is the direct link, that works for me.

http://sourceforge.net/projects/libreofficenadvd/files/4.4.x-versions/NA-DVD-LibreOffice-4.4.4.iso/download

Now the question will be is if I should make a 5.0.0.x ISO file, or wait 
for 5.0.1 or 5.0.2.

[libreoffice-marketing] need advice on which version I should make for new ISO file, after offline due to hospital visits

2015-06-17 Thread Tim---Kracked_P_P---webmaster


OK Marketing people. . .

After a major stretch of time in and out of the hospital and bed-ridden 
for the rest of the time, I am starting to get ready to re-start making 
LibreOffice DVD ISO files for download.  It has been months since I have 
been able to sit at this desktop for more than a few minutes at a time.


I need to get your input on what version[s] I should start with first.  
I hope to start the work the first week in July.


I have to deal with other local things on my large backlog of work that 
has been put on hold since the first hospital visit. Then I will be able 
to get back to marketing LibreOffice via .iso file downloads and handing 
the DVDs out locally to the people/organizations/businesses I have 
worked with in the past.


Friday, I was told that I will not need another surgery on my back in 
the near future, so I am starting on working on this desktop more every 
day.  By the end of the month I should be able to be on it long enough 
[over a couple of days] to do all of the work I need to do for the DVD 
.iso file and the other local marketing preparation.


So . . .

Any advice on what version I should download the 90+ files [install and 
help/language packs] start with for the  English DVD ISO file that I 
will make to be downloaded from my Source Forge account?


I than you in advance for any help you can render.
Timothy Lungstrom
living in the Finger Lakes region of New York State, USA.



PS.
I am really glad not to be flat in bed, at home or the hospital, for 23+ 
hours a day. I could not even use my laptops.  My only access to the 
world was an Android tablet that was no good for doing any work I do 
with my laptops or my main system/desktop.

[libreoffice-marketing] Has anyone tried LO 4.3.x or 4.4.0 on the new Raspberry PI 2?

2015-02-06 Thread Tim---Kracked_P_P---webmaster


I was wondering if anyone on this list has bought the new Raspberry PI 2 
mini-computer.  I was thinking that with the much better specs, I wonder 
how well the newest version of LibreOffice will work on the new machine.


Now that RPi2 has a quad core and 1GB of ram, it should be much better 
that the RPi B/B+.


Since the original idea of the device was for cheap computers for use in 
schools and developers of computer controlled devices, having the newer 
LO version available for download would be good.

[libreoffice-marketing] Re: 190 downloads so far - Italy top country

2014-11-21 Thread Tim---Kracked_P_P---webmaster


Well, Tom suggested that I should post this on the List[s], so below it is.

Forgive any spelling errors - OK - since I just came back from minor 
back surgery and my spelling before that was off for some reason [ha, 
ha, ha]


The first day's country list was Italy, Germany, and the USA.
As of yesterday morning USA, Spain, and Venezuela moved forward of Germany.

I also have some Far East and/or Pacific Ocean area countries 
listed, as well.


This encourages me, and maybe others, that there are people out there 
that likes our effort, or at least want to see what us local marketers 
are doing for the LibreOffice project.

[libreoffice-marketing] NA-DVD 4.3.4 .iso file now online

2014-11-14 Thread Tim---Kracked_P_P---webmaster


Earlier today I was able to upload the 4.3.4.1 NA-DVD .iso file to 
SourceForge.net.


https://sourceforge.net/projects/libreofficenadvd/files/4.3.x-versions/

The last version, 4.3.2, has had 459 downloads since it was uploaded.  
My thanks for that.


Through delays in my schedule, 4.3.4 came out before I could get the 
4.3.3 .iso online.


There is one mistake, the version numbers of the portable software. I 
did not catch the error, but the latest [as of this morning] is actually 
in this version, even though it states it is the previous one.  I will 
be fixing that later, along with updating the documentation files 
included.  BUT, the Windows, Mac, and Linux install versions are what 
count [for most people].  The correction may need to wait for the next 
opening in my schedule a few weeks from now.

[libreoffice-marketing] need link to the 4th birthday graphic

I have a printout of a LibreOffice 4th Birthday graphic.  I cannot 
remember which list the email link was from or where on my system it was 
stored [not where it should be]


So could someone get me the link so I can download it again and save it 
where it should be?  I wanted it for a thing a few hours ago, but 
could not wait any longer to find it before I had to leave my place.

Thanks.

I now have it in two places.

Does  aniversario  mean  birthday
in the original language, or anniversary?

That may have been my problem.
Plus, I thought I downloaded it mid October so the September date 
shown in the link might have been an issue.  Also, I only have a few 
weeks of list emails [for most of the lists] in my email client so the 
original post is missing from my LO list folders

As I was the one who originally came up with that name (although the

exactly clear why, and I probably forgot a few things sine we first
started all this, but I know for sure that in English, if you say
Document Foundation it will not have the same effect than if you say
the Document Foundation. The definite article the puts emphasis on
the rest of the name, which itself has one very generic noun
document. So The Document Foundation is really THE foundation of
the Document.

Hope this helps,

Hello Charles,

Yes. I thought exactly that you said. Thank you.

Lera




With The in front of the name, it implies that it is the best of what 
it does.
Having TDF as the abbreviation, it makes that statement an emphasis to 
the fact that it is  Th'E'  one and only or the best.


I am glad it made it into the name.

The only issue for grammar would be the double the in the line using 
the proper full name use with the content like this is the that - i.e. 
- We see the The Documentation Foundation growing as its product 
LibreOffice becoming even more popular.

I have been selling a DVD of LibreOffice in the USA for awhile, on and off.

Of course I do not make any profit on it, since I sell it at my costs.

I have health issues and housing issues about doing business out of a 
government subsidized housing.  So I cannot even think of doing any 
official business selling copies of the DVDs for a profit or donation

Check out my web demo versions of the DVDs.  My DVDs are browser based, 
so the online demo versions are the same format as the DVDs - except for 
anytime I have a lag of syncing the updates to the demo pages.


I still have to update the 4.2.5 to 4.2.6 and 4.3.0 to 4.3.1.  I have 
the ISO files for those newest versions online for downloading.  I just 
have not had the bandwidth time to upload the HTML page changes along 
with the install files o those two online demo versions.  Maybe I will 
be able to set it up for tonight.

Re: [libreoffice-marketing] eCommerce

2014-09-17 Thread Tim---Kracked_P_P---webmaster


Take the ideas from the German and English DVD projects and make it into 
you own version.  I have had several people in non-English countries 
use my project's DVD setup as the foundation of their version.  Of 
course they had to change the text to their native language[s].  By 
doing this, you get some of the template code already written for 
you.  IT makes it much easier for others not needing to create 
everything from scratch.  That is what I did when I changed to the 
current DVD format.  I downloaded all of the styles and scripts from the 
LO web site  - several main versions ago - and built my browser based 
DVD from there so it would look similar to the official LO site but 
with my own variations. I plan on doing a major over hall in the near 
future, but I will have to write a lot of the template scripting 
myself, for what I want the new [ 4.4.x?} DVD look and feel.


Best of luck on your DVD.

I use Ubuntu and Linux Mint, plus Windows 7.
Liked Ubuntu 9.x better than the early version of openSUSE I tried on an 
old desktop/server box [back then].

Hi,

I wish to make an ecommerce site only open-source products. Do not do 
it for money but for the fact that there is something to like and 
promote these programs.
In Romania, coordinate openSUSE community and LibreOffice. Get 
involved in activities and presentations. For example, in October 1, 
together with open data department of the Government of Romania will 
have a presentation each week in different cities.

[libreoffice-marketing] NA-DVD ISO files online and updated

2014-09-13 Thread Tim---Kracked_P_P---webmaster


For those of you who have asked for them, I have just uploaded the 
LibreOffice North American Community DVD ISO files to my SourceForge.net 
project account.  [my web hosting service will not allow the hosting of 
ISO files the size of CDs or DVDs]


There are two folders, currently.
One is for the 4.2.x line and the other is for the 4.3.x line.
I just uploaded the 4.2.6 and 4.3.1 ISO files last night.

This is the direct link to the project's files. 
http://sourceforge.net/projects/libreofficenadvd/files/


I still need to upload the files to my web site versions of the DVDs, 
for testing before downloading, but the ISO files are more important 
at this moment.


I feel sorry for not having these ISO files up sooner, but my ongoing 
hardware and health issues have delayed a lot of things.  I hope to get 
the next versions online without the delay that these two had.
