When we started to discuss the branding for LibreOffice, I also added stuff that had been collected within similar threads. Here you go: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Marketing/Branding#LibreOffice comments? Yes :-) If we agree on a certain pronunciation, then we can ask for professional support to record audio files. Florian once provided me some information on people who offered support quite some time ago - professional speakers (thus, still an open task on my side). Personally, it would be even better (in my opinion), to have a generic video explaining LibreOffice that automatically explains the pronunciation by simply using it. Such a promotional video should be linked from within the website to explain LibO to new users. My 2 ct.

Christoph, I really like the idea of a video explaining LibreOffice. I think a LibO home page video is a great way to introduce users to LibO.

Re: [tdf-discuss] LibreOffice exits after closing the Credits page
Hi, Marius Popa On Tue, Jan 25, 2011 at 10:03 AM, Marius Popa marius.mar...@gmail.comwrote: Good afternoon! My name is Marius Popa, a user running LibreOffice 3.3 final, and I want to suggest you remove the LibreOffice Credits entry from the Help menu, firstly because LibreOffice exits after someone closes the Credits page This is a known bug and has been reported here... https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=32269 and secondly since the Credits page do not even exists in OpenOffice.org. Thanks in advance. First LibreOffice is not OpenOffice.org. Secondly The Document Foundation is a meritocracy and believes that the community of LibreOffice volunteers deserve credit for there hard work.

Maybe that is why I haven't seen Word Perfect installed on a machine locally (State Of Ohio US) since 1998. The users I know think MSO when they see the words essential office suite. For LO I think, it has to hook up into the real working of users; that means what users realy do with Office-Software (realize ideas, writing texts e.g.) like: LibreOffice is The (Software)Collection to create your ideas (everytime, everywhere and with indivudial style) Este suena bien LibreOffice - The (Software)Collection to make your ideas real Un poco mas pequeño LibreOffice - make your ideas real LibreOffice - The (Software)Collection to realize your ideas in home or office LibreOffice - Software for fine Workings in Text and Graphik LibreOffice - Fine Software to improve your Work LibreOffice - One more step to better Texts and Graphiks and so on or: LibreOffice - it's just for You IMO, this is one hits closer to home for American users. They like things that are designed just for them individually, in reality or implied. Americans are a possessive bunch. That is why their is so much hardware, software and websites named in the possessive. Think... Me, My, Mine. I am sure you have noticed MS goes overboard with My... My... My... Like: LibreOffice - Designed For You or maybe Ubuntu style: LibreOffice - Designed For People Go LibO ;) lpcoch Johannes -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to discuss+h...@documentfoundation.orgdiscuss%2bh...@documentfoundation.org discuss%2bh...@documentfoundation.orgdiscuss%252bh...@documentfoundation.org Archive: http://www.documentfoundation.org/lists/discuss/ *** All posts to this list are publicly archived for eternity *** -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to discuss+h...@documentfoundation.orgdiscuss%2bh...@documentfoundation.org Archive: http://www.documentfoundation.org/lists/discuss/ *** All posts to this list are publicly archived for eternity *** -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to discuss+h...@documentfoundation.org Archive: http://www.documentfoundation.org/lists/discuss/ *** All posts to this list are publicly archived for eternity ***
