Please do recycle this page by using it for note taking. Or something to that effect, encouraging people to use the paper plane for another purpose. Cheers Marc Hi Ben: I worked with the plane and after playing around with the design I ended up with a learn about LO as you build and get involved plane design. I uploaded the design here: www.parentreprise.com/images/LibreOffice/LibreOffice_PaperPlane1D.odg and the construction directions are as follows (I borrowed some of the wording from your directions): == Printed paper plane page should face down in front of you before following the instructions: 1. Fold the page toward yourself along its long axis, shown as line 1. Flatten the paper again, to leave a crease. 2. Fold the top corners to the center line crease you just created. (Lines 2a and 2b.) 3. Fold the now-triangular top section of the page toward yourself along line 3. 4. Fold toward yourself along lines 4a and 4b. 5. Fold its triangular nose back toward the far side of the paper along line 5. (Line 5 is on the paper behind the piece you will fold–use its edges to determine where you’ll fold the triangular nose.) Tuck the flaps created by lines 4a and 4b under the triangular nose formed by line 5. 6. Fold the far side into triangles along lines 6a and 6b. 7. Fold both sides of the paper plane at the center line 1. 7. Fold away from yourself along lines 7a and 7b. 8. Fold toward yourself along lines 8a and 8b to form triangular stabilizers. 9. To launch your new plane, hold it from the back and push gently forward while pointed very slightly down. Meet us at www.libreoffice.org == What do you think?

[libreoffice-marketing] Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year
Hello, I would like to wish all of you a merry Christmas in peace and silence, some joyful days with your beloved ones, and a happy, successful and healthy new year! This year was an amazing one for all of us. Together and united, we have achieved so much in just a short period of time. I am thankful for what we do day by day, and I am proud of being part of such a wonderful community. What we have achieved already is the sign of a healthy, vital and living community, of a community that works together and united and speaks with one voice, a community that values the true roots of free software. Enjoying this every day pays for all the long nights and exhausting work. Thank you for being with us, thanks so much for all these great contributions -- and I am very much looking forward to the exciting things that will happen in 2011. Merry Christmas everyone!

Re: [libreoffice-marketing] Libre Office logo designs
Hi Tom, * Tom Davies schrieb: Hi :) Surely this would be best done within the existing Design Group rather than creating a new specialist group? That's what I said: Please join the Design Group by subscribing to our mailing list. [ ...] It would be ideal if the Design Group had specific one-off tasks such as this along with ongoing work imo. It is a good time and worth joining for a while for such specific tasks. After the release of LibO 3.3 we will work on short- and long-term tasks and topics simultaneously. Just for the moment there is not enough time to work on anything else than the most pressing topics. The name LibO misses the value of the meaning of Libre. It sounds more like a library that linux-people generally ignore on the way to find the juicy stuff. It could be just me but LibreO is not really so much more hassle to type? It still lacks the value of the meaning of Office. ;-) LibO is just an internal acronym for LibreOffice. It's shorter to type and easier in speech. We already had this discussion on LO, LibO and LibreO about two months ago. Back then it was decided to prefer LibO, but not to market it in public, because LibreOffice still lacks public recognition.

Re: [libreoffice-marketing] Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year
Hi, :-) I second the seasonal greetings to all. ;-) And to you, Florian, I wish you a happy and restful time. You have put great energy and work into giving leadership and guidance to the community, and don't think that we are not aware of it. You do indeed deserve some moments of quiet pride and satisfaction in what you have put into the project. Let's *all work hard* in 2011 to make the values of Free Open Source Software thrive.
