[libreoffice-marketing] Who is working on an English DVD for LibreOffice?
Who is working on an English version of a LibreOffice DVD? I was directed to the Marketing list to speak to the US marketing group. I know that I am not the only one who need such a DVD, and most likely more people, or groups, are working on such an English DVD. I do not think I will be doing a business for mailing out copies of a DVD to those who pay the small price for the costs of the media and postage. I want to have one that I can distribute locally or have on one of my domains as a download ISO file. This DVD will have all the English language and help packs. Since I do not know French or Spanish, I do not know about dealing with those languages for a North American version containing both the install package for those languages and the documentation, extension, and templates in those languages [ if I can find them ]. SO who is the US Marketing group and can we help each other? -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to marketing+h...@libreoffice.org List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/www/marketing/ *** All posts to this list are publicly archived for eternity ***

[libreoffice-marketing] Looking for two people to act as sponsors of US TDF/LibreOffice fund raising event
Hi, I was thinking about fund raising for the TDF, given we will be at a big event coming up in the USA, well over a thousand Linux enthusiasts and I dare say many, in only 12 days, it is no surprise. Many LibreOffice supports and well wishers will be in that crowed, I would say. Here is an idea then: We hold a raffle at the show. For what - for a poster. Here is scaled down image: (coincidentally making a nice desktop background on many monitors_ http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/File:Scale_poster-lax_lnd-1680x1050.png The poster would be 36 x 24 and mounted. Suitable for framing. It will be prominently displayed in the LbreOffice booth at the Southern California Linux Expo We sell raffle tickets of $1.00 each for the one and only copy of this poster. _All_ proceeds go to the TDF fund raising drive. Well, what do you think? What I am looking for then are two persons. One would sponsor the production cost (Exact price delivered with direct email to me) I am quite certain your donation will be multiplied! I am absolutely convinced that it would generate a few hundred dollars, rather easily. The second person - I am looking for someone that will pledge to match the amount raised at the show. It's that simple. Thank you for your time, your consideration on this issue and your contribution.

Re: [libreoffice-marketing] I want your face on video :-)
YouTube would be a good idea. Many, many, large companies and small are using that as a forum to get their message out. I myself do not deal much with Social Networks and such since I have enough things going on in my life to keep me involved so I do not need to work that part of the computer craze. Of course, two years ago, I was not invited to my High School Reunion since they could not find me on FaceBook. All they had to do was Google my name to find me, or use my phone number or email address I was using during the last reunion. But since I was not on the social networks, I could not be found. I found out about this problem a few weeks before the reunion. So, with that in mind, if LibreOffice could have a presence on YouTube with videos about LibreOffice, and the same with FaceBook and any other major social and informational network that people must be a part of or they are not with the in-crowd. I know that it would not be a bad thing if it is done properly and well. On 02/13/2011 03:03 PM, Paulo de Souza Lima wrote: As you wish, my lord :D They can be embeded or not in the movie.

I reserved the entry back in December. I have bee running it's cousin: http://youtube.com/libreofficevols since. (this is an unofficial site, an official channel makes a lot of sense to me) I've already let Florian know that I have the account and would easily give to anyone that wants to pursue it - there is plenty you can do with a youtube channel. Given the work going on in BrOffice with the magazine, it would not surprise me if some of the folks there might have the best (more enthusiastic, is maybe a better word there) perspective for putting a multi-media account to use. Or course I would want English to still be the default language - LOL - but then again after I transfer the account what can I say on it. *smiling*.. Anyway; I'm just saying that I agree with the idea of putting one of the video SAS sites to use for this, that doesn't preclude the use of other forms of delivery. Youtube, or sites like it, I believe shuold be just one tool, the internet archive is available, not to mention TDF servers. With an 'official' youtube site I would, right of the bat, push folks to produce webM formatted files, and to consider using internet archive as a matter of policy as one of the submission location vectors. People can place the master file at the archive and email the TDF, if you choose to use it, a copy can be moved to a youtube channel (a folder within?), and likes WebM, keeping TDF in step with current trends, IMO Youtube gives you the added mechanisms for auto-notification to different social networks - getting the word out is one of the objectives, yes, so this is a big advantage here, IMO. Anyway - just thinking out loud, it would take someone to focus on the details during the campaign, and I'm not raising my hand for any long term commitment, but the resource (as URL) is available for someone to use.

Re: [libreoffice-marketing] Updated Conference Kit wiki page and thoughts about branding
Hi :) From what other people have said i think that allowing some regional variation would be a good plan. 3. Slight variations give an impression of a community-led, creative and dynamic organisation rather than excessively global corporate. 2. Faster to create good displays more cheaply. 1. Postage costs and time taken for deliveries could make a marketing box for posters and paper-work fairly impractical - especially when considering posting from one continent to another! However, i think there are some items that would be great to be able to share around to give LibreOffice an unexpected boost even at some fairly small events. Just my 2cents worth Regards from Tom :) From: Marc Paré m...@marcpare.com To: marketing@libreoffice.org Sent: Sat, 12 February, 2011 11:25:21 Subject: [libreoffice-marketing] Updated Conference Kit wiki page and thoughts about branding ** Disclaimer - I am a fan of the LibreOffice green ** Resources tagged (TBA) I updated the Conference Kit wiki page[1] with items/examples. I tagged resources where there is no English version done as of yet as (TBA). We can remove these tags as we complete these resources. Colour Branding We should really talk whether we should have a unified look for marketing resources or do we leave it up to regional decisions. That is, do all of our banners, posters, flyers, stickers etc. look the same worldwide? As an example, if you examine the German team's resources for the upcoming CeBit2011, you'll see that they are using the green background on ALL of their resources. However, the US team, we are using a white background on our LibreOffice pamphlet. Have a look at the German team's designs (examples on the Conference Kit wiki page). Do we also want to cultivate a brand based on colour and stick to this brand? Personally, I believe that the LibreOffice green would make it undeniably recognizable everywhere we go. You would have a hard time not being able to find the LibreOffice green poster in a conference hall. If we are dealing with the various LibO applications then we would use their particular colours of course. Another factor is cost. Does using green paper stock at the printer add to the cost? What do we do about poorly funded marketing teams to minimize costs? LibreOffice Marketing Box I bring up again the idea of a LibreOffice Marketing Box where this box could be shipped from one destination to another in a particular region. The box could contain necessary marketing resources to setup a normal conference booth/table area. This to minimize initial costs where funding is low. We could then send out teams more easily to conferences knowing that the LibreOffice brand resources are used.

Re: [libreoffice-marketing] Updated Conference Kit wiki page and thoughts about branding
Hi Marc, thank you so much for driving this activity forward ... thus, just a few thoughts since I also helped to shape some of the current content. Am Samstag, den 12.02.2011, 06:25 -0500 schrieb Marc Paré: ** Disclaimer - I am a fan of the LibreOffice green ** Me too :-) [...] Colour Branding We should really talk whether we should have a unified look for marketing resources or do we leave it up to regional decisions. That is, do all of our banners, posters, flyers, stickers etc. look the same worldwide? My decision would be based on the perception of the end-users ... on a trade fair, the marketing material might just be an entry point to get further information on the website, maybe downloading LibreOffice. Consequently, we may improve the perception of our visual design language by basing most of the marketing material on how LibreOffice and the website looks in general. Currently, the look is rather conservative and non-obtrusive to have a somehow fits all approach when offering the software. But, this might not fit to the wishes of all of the communities (thinking more of cultural diversity than personal taste) - so the content might be adjusted as needed. Here is some (maybe extreme) example of how our presentation at the OOoCon 2008 looked like (in China): http://marketing.openoffice.org/ooocon2008/programme/friday_1397.pdf And a very unofficial note ;-) In the end, it is important that the team feels comfortable with the content that has been created ... since they do the hard work of bringing LibreOffice to the people.

Total agreement - and I think there will be further improvements concerning the website, so we get more and more good examples how things might look like. Oh, maybe already helpful - when I worked on the Branding wiki pages, I already tried to include some early examples in dedicated sections Usage Examples: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Marketing/Branding As I said, only some thoughts ...

Re: [libreoffice-marketing] Updated Conference Kit wiki page and thoughts about branding
I find that the idea of Green is a buzz word of this generation. If we use a green color in the branding of the visuals of the marketing and maybe in the software splash screen, it might be remembered more often. The costs of green paper is cheaper than using a lot of green toner or ink for a printer. I wonder if there could be a few places looked into by the major players in the marketing teams to the local costs of the larger items, like banners. I bet it would cost a lot less in the larger cities, than it does in a smaller one, like where I live. It could be less with the postage from a city like New York City or LA, shipped to my area of New York State [USA] than it would cost me to have one made up at our best priced shop. It could be the same in the bigger cities of each country and shipped to the smaller areas for local events of those regions of their countries. I know I would not want something to be shipped from Europe to the USA, but within Germany, or France, or England?

Le 2011-02-13 20:57, webmaster for Kracked Press Productions a écrit : I find that the idea of Green is a buzz word of this generation. If we use a green color in the branding of the visuals of the marketing and maybe in the software splash screen, it might be remembered more often. The costs of green paper is cheaper than using a lot of green toner or ink for a printer. In fact, if we were to check national office supply chains, we may find that they sell a shade of green paper products that could be available nation-wide. This could also add a layer of commonality in colour/shade to the paper-printed products. For example, Staples Office Supply stores[1], as well as in the US[2], are quite common throughout all of Canada and US. (BTW, I have no affiliation to Staples whatsoever) It would only be a matter of agreeing on a national paper supplier. I wonder if there could be a few places looked into by the major players in the marketing teams to the local costs of the larger items, like banners.

I know I would not want something to be shipped from Europe to the USA, but within Germany, or France, or England? This would be my proposal. In order to minimize costs (at least at this very early stage of organization) we could organize a travelling Marketing Kit that could be shipped to conferences in particular regions. In your case, a conference box in New York City could be shipped to any other city/town in NY state. This would allow people who are new to the marketing team to work with material that was used in a prior conference and plan on funding their own kit. The effect would be a multiplication of kits where eventually, all local marketing teams would have their own kits. In some respects, this could be called an arm's length marketing mentorship programme.

Re: [libreoffice-marketing] Starting something like LibreCon
Hi to all, in my eyes the development of the projects OOo and LO hasn't much split yet and so why aren't we using (if possible) the OOoCon for as a platform for presentation and knowledge transfer. We are a fork but I don't think we are enemies. We also have to think of the costumers the most part of the presentations might be interesting for both LO and OOo Users. Regards Tobias Paukert On Wed, Feb 9, 2011 at 8:02 PM, Markus Franz o...@sucomo.com wrote: Right after the anncouncement of LibreOffice and The Document Foundation, I did an interview with Thomas Krumbein for Netzwelt.de, one of the largest online IT magazines in Germany. I am regularly writing for some tech media, but mainly I'm General Partner at Sucomo, a (small) consulting agency focused on the media industry (HQ in Jena). In the last few weeks, I kept an eye on what's going on with LibreOffice and the Document Foundation. The things that have already been achieved are great, but in my opinion there is something important still missing: We don't have anything like a LibreCon, not even discussed it. Of course, OO.org Annual Conference seems to be held in 2011, too. Also, we have the OO.org Kongress für Wirtschaft und Verwaltung dedicated to business and governmental users. But so far, there is nothing dedicated to LibreOffice. So I suggest to discuss starting something like a LibreCon this year, where the community meets for discussing LibreOffice itself, the Document Foundation as well as strategic stuff like fundraising and setting up legal entities (foundation? association?). The idea of LibreCon, however we may call it at a later stage, came to my mind because my company is not new to organizing conferences. And if the community wants it, we would be glad to help building a place for LibreOffice users, developers and partners to meet. I'd love to hear your thoughts about having a dedicated conference for LibreOffice / TDF.
