Re: [steering-discuss] sponsoring for the Hackfest
Hi :) I think i would favour Italo's pasta. Does anyone remember the BBC's April 1st documentary on Italian 'vineyard's that supposedly grew pasta instead of grapes? Germany is famous for many things but Italy wins on pasta.

[steering-discuss] Fw: screen-shots Documentation Team
Hi :) It is probably just me being paranoid. I'm sure the people in Documentation Team are robust and intelligent enough to stand their ground. There are a few new people that are very active and wouldn't appreciate being pulled in the wrong direction. It would be great to have a few relevant links or something quotable. Regards from Tom :) - Forwarded Message From: Tom Davies tomdavie...@yahoo.co.uk To: steering-discuss@documentfoundation.org Sent: Wed, 6 July, 2011 10:48:31 Subject: screen-shots Documentation Team Hi The documentation team has been told by various people (over the past several months) that taking screen-shots in Windows could put us at risk. Since those people appeared to have some level of legal awareness or in some cases read and quoted the Windows Eulas the team decided to make it part of the re-branding work to protect us from that sort of vulnerability. Now a single individual quotes from a children's fairy story saying the sky is not falling, as Chicken Little imagined. and says that people have wasted time re-branding because MS never takes any organisations or people to court over patent infringements. Gary is also telling people to abandon the established work-flow and use his own personal websites to do the work instead of using the Alfresco websites and ODFauthors places that the Documentation Team established that protect works under copyleft licences that were also agreed within the team. He has carefully timed his advice to coincide with the person the team sees as leader going away on holiday. Can anyone point me to a list of MS court actions or specific parts of the Windows Eula that might put us at risk? A quick google search on the Tom Tom case gave me http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_v._TomTom Can anyone give me more relevant examples? The documentation team is very small and needs a lot of support right now. David is doing great work at developing the functionality of the Alfresco sites and i had hoped that we could just get on with doing the work while Jean was away rather than dealing with a power-grab and disruptive actions seemingly designed to drive morale through the floor.

[steering-discuss] LibreOffice presence at FISL 12, Porto Alegre, Brazil, photo album
Hi Below the link for the FISL 12 (Int'l, Forum on Free Software), held last week in Porto Alegre, Brazil. Among the pictures and persons, I should note: * The interesting combination of the LibreOffice logo and colorful icons in the banners. * The banner with the ODF dove refers to the bill passed in the state of Rio de Janeiro, for ODF adoption in the public administration. * The signature of the letter of intent for more developers for LibreOffice, with government officials. * The crowded booth of LibreOffice... * Many, many TDF members (Furusho, Klaibson, Eliane, Gustavo...) http://www.flickr.com/photos/64856924@N07/sets/72157627127577896/with/5907592550/ Kind regards -- Olivier Hallot Founder, Steering Commitee Member - The Document Foundation Voicing the enterprise needs LibreOffice translation leader for Brazilian Portuguese +55-21-8822-8812 -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to steering-discuss+h...@documentfoundation.org Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.documentfoundation.org/www/steering-discuss/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted

It should be clear, though, that only code hackers and TDF volunteers will be able to eat hacked pasta.

On 04/07/2011 21:16, André Schnabel wrote: Hi, as the SC is obligated to end it's existence, we need to think about BoD elections. ah, it's a pleasure :) According to our bylaws we have only one fixed period to consider: we need to announce the elections 45 days in advance. But I think, we need to have some more milestones in the process. Your timeline is ok for me. The period between 18 and 4 will be somewhat complicated for me, but I hope we're not only we 3 on that. A rough draft for a time line might look like this: -4518.07.11Announce elections prepare infrastructure document election process details ... -2804.08.11freeze membership applications -2705.08.11start nomination, introduction of nominees discussion with nominees ... -329.08.11publish final list of nominees 001.09.11Start of elections elections running +1415.09.11elections closed counting votes, +1718.09.11publish result time to appeal +2223.09.11publish final result I hope, this gives almost all of our members the chance to take part in the elections (given the fact, that we have summer vacation time at the northern hemisphere). +1 There is not much room to shift the elections or to have longer periods. Unless we keep the SC in place for some weeks more - e.g. until our conference - but I would not prefer to do so. me too, I would like to see our engagement respected. We should also not start much earlier, as we still need to have the legal statutes for the foundation. We should have a very close to final draft of the statutes before we call for nominations.
