Hi :)
Here is a QR Code i generated from that 


LibreOffice-Dev-GetInvolved.png

I tried to get it as small as possible but it might be too large to cram into 
the current flyer.  You can reduce the size but once grey areas appear then 
it's too small.  Of course the colours can be change but it helps to keep the 
contrast quite high
Regards from 

Tom :)

Re: [libreoffice-marketing] Developer-specific brochure

Hi :)
QR code anyone?

It's just occurred to me that i've never seen a QR Code so that people can 
effectively 'click' on the leaflet with their smart-phone and be taken to a 
useful wiki-page or something.  Different QR Codes could take people to 
different parts of the site.  Perhaps 1 for the downloads page and 1 for 
"further information" relevant to the type of person the leaflet is aimed at.  


If you are using Gnu&Linux there are various simple QR Code generators that 
just require you to feed in the target web-page and the generator then spits 
out a gif or png that works with all smart-phones; iPhones, Android and even 
Windows (if the person has found a reliable QR reader (does a Windows phone 
count as "smart"?)).  iPons and Android tend to either have such readers by 
default or make them easy to find&install.  

Regards from 
Tom :)

OK, I understand that.
On the one hand: hackers often are faster in finding something on the 
internet that you can tell'm. But that is of course not always true.
So indeed, basic info over language, licence and opportunities to join 
(EasyHacks) are good to have at hand.

Maybe it's enough to just add:

Cor,
I've looked at the flyers, but what I want for this conference is
something with more specific information, to hand to people who
express an interest or ask questions I can't answer. So I'm looking
again at what I might be able to pull out of the website or wiki.
Things like: what language LO is coded in and and what tools are
commonly used. As well as licensing & whatever other info a hacker
might want to know up front.

[libreoffice-marketing] Developer-specific brochure

2013-06-27 Thread Jean Weber
I would really like to have a brochure aimed specifically at
developers for use at OSCON (Open Source Conference) in July, but I'm
not a developer so I don't know what is most relevant and important to
include.

I could start with info from http://www.libreoffice.org/developers/
and https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development and then ask for
comments and improvements from developers. Not sure there is time for
this, but it's certainly a brochure that is needed for other
conferences, so someone's got to start on it sometime.

I'll see what I can do over the next few days. No promises; a lot is
going on in Documentation right now.
