Hello Florian, hello Marc, I don't really care and this decision should not only be mine. What I want is to have information, registration and the cfp online asap :-) Thanks, Charles.

Hi Charles, BTW, your (web?) mail client is a mess. It breaks subjects (RE : is not a valid prefix), and also threads, which will result in broken archives. Just for your information. :-) Charles-H.

For the forms (registration etc.), best is to ask the website list, IIRC someone already was working on that. For the press release and the CfP text, I can have a look this week. Marc: The easiest would be if you connected our DNS servers to the domain name, and we then can transfer them to TDF later on (there's a 60 day block for transfers after a registration). Would that be ok for you? If you want a financial compensation for the registration fee, we could do so via PayPal.

[libreoffice-marketing] LibOCon.com domain -- proposal
Hi everyone I did a quick search of some of the abbreviated forms of LibreOffice and found that many, if not most, are already in usage or reserved by some web entities. During one of our conversations, Florian mused that perhaps the LibOCon term could be mistaken to mean Library of Congress. After checking on the Internet, I have found that this has in fact never been used anywhere. So this would leave us with a clear advantage in claiming the use of the word LibOCon as our own to mean LibreOffice Conference. This would then be demonstrable is our accepted adoption of the term as well as in usage. (Which I am doing at this moment.) So, to make a long story short, I propose that we make free use of the LibOCon term (short form use for LibreOffice Conference) to show that we do accept it as a usable term in our membership. In the meantime, I have also reserved the http://www.libOCon.com; domain which now points temporarily to the http://www.LibreOffice.org; site until we get a LibreOffice Conference site/pages built or until I am sent nameserver changes for the domain. I just thought it would be best to be proactive with this. I have also registered the .net/.org/.ca as well and have them pointing temporarily to my website. We can now use these for the project or not. Feel free to comment.
