 Huh, I read it just the opposite - non-commercial use with attribution
 sounds like like that is what this is.

If it was CC-BY, or CC-BY-SA you'd be OK.

The issue is that it is a CC-BY-NC license, and the proposed usage meets
the criteria of commercial endeavour.

[I've come across several business that prohibit their employees from
attending any conferences in the state of California, regardless of the
connection of the conference to the company, because that attendance can
trip the commercial endeavour criteria used by the California
franchise tax board.]

 Anyway, an email to the person would be standard practice for me,
 But then I'm terrible at this license stuff.

Since your standard is to contact the license holder, prior to
distribution, to verify that the proposed usage is acceptable to them,
then you are doing the required due diligence.  Which means that even if
you don't grok the license, you won't run afoul of the license.

[libreoffice-marketing] LibO Slogan

2010-11-11 Thread Marc Paré
There was some bantering back and forth a while ago with different 
words. Should we develop a slogan for LibO? Should we develop a 
different slogan for each language or have a translation of one slogan 
for languages?


Here are a few of my suggestions:

LibreOffice, a suite deal.
Memories brought to you by LibreOffice
Take note, with LibreOffice.
Penmanship begins with LibreOffice.
There was the calamus, the ballpoint pen. LibreOffice, the evolution 
continues.

LibreOffice, your creation, your company, your trust.
LibreOffice ... we are all free to live.
LibreOffice, we dared and we conquered.
We conquered space, we created LibreOffice. Dare to imagine and you 
will succeed

 Would seem to make sense - I was doodling with ideas over this last
 weekend also and Liberate Your Life came to mind. I used it in a first
 draft for a poster

Somewhat nice idea, but may I remind you to obey the branding rules:

Some nice ideas.
I think the main slogan should remind people that LibreOffice is a 
series of programs that help one to write, draw, calculate... Maybe I am 
paranoid, but I think we should avoid: names that remind one of 
competitive software. So I would not recommend:

– Take note... because of OneNote and Lotus Notes
– We conquered space... too far away

I like:
– LibreOffice, a suite deal
– With LibreOffice, you really are in control of your documents (i.e. 
reference to open file formats)

– LibreOffice: your documents, you're in control!

In French, these would work, depending on how much text we want:
– LibreOffice, une suite qui a de la classe
– Avec LibreOffice, vous avez plein contrôle, jusqu'au bout !
– LibreOffice vous permet d'être maître de vos documents !

Hi Marc, all,

this topic is one I like very much :-)

A few years back we had a similar activity in the OOo marketing project 
with lots of proposals, a voting and finally one official slogan 
(positioner) for OpenOffice.org. (Open. For Business)

(Search the OOo marketing list archive for positioner)

Marc Paré schrieb:

Definitively yes!


Should we develop a
different slogan for each language or have a translation of one slogan
for languages?


Most of the slogans don't translate easily. But we should try to find a 
common central conclusion.


Here are a few of my suggestions:

LibreOffice, a suite deal.

Penmanship begins with LibreOffice.
There was the calamus, the ballpoint pen. LibreOffice, the evolution

LibreOffice, we dared and we conquered.
We conquered space, we created LibreOffice. Dare to imagine and you
will succeed

Would you mind to position them on a new wiki page?

As the list will probably become longer, it might be problematical to 
work on them here at the list.

Yup that is it, it is directly from the logo.

This is the problem - I didn't take the time to qualify the ratio, just
pulled it out for a basic layout pass.

hmm - yes noticed that, I think the svg file is out of date on
that..isn't it? I figured the one I was using form the wiki currently
was, so didn't really sweat it yet.

Yes - it is, but surely we aren't going to pass on all dark backgrounds-
I can use the white out logo but it really doesn't come across as well,
IMO in a big way - still I can put one together and put it up to compare
against. I also have a second background that might work for the event,
it has a better local tie, but the Statue of Liberty (even the iconic
tourist novelty rendition) is a very powerful image for the USA.

Also, I faux lightened the background with a transparency overlay - but
that is a terrible solution I think, so for a next pass would play a bit
with lightning the background image a bit and lose the added layer.
