Re: [libreoffice-marketing] Flyer design and text about "digital sovereignty"
It looks like I might have a bit of time to have a look at this. Two questions: 1. Is there a page/post/something about aspects of digital sovereignty we're talking about? We can't cram *everything* into a single flyer. 2. Who are likely to be the readers of this? Different audiences will need the info framed and pitched in different ways. In short - what are we trying to achieve here? Better info for managers? IT managers? individual users? The words and design will be different in each case. One generic set of copy and design won't do the job. thanks Matt On Thu, 27 Nov 2025, at 4:39 AM, Mike Saunders wrote: > Hello everyone – here's a project we can work on together.

The mailing list does not allow attachment, so there is nothing attached to your message (if there was something). In order to share a document, you should upload it to a drive in the cloud, and provide a link. On 12/1/25 17:08, Vinicius Duarte Creative Designer wrote: Good afternoon.

Re: [libreoffice-marketing] Flyer design and text about "digital sovereignty"
Hi Mike, Here is a copy idea for the flyer. Tools and knowledge can be made available to anyone. Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) is designed to: - Be available to use without payment - Be transparent, with its code and operations visible - Operate impartially, without built-in bias toward specific outcomes *Proprietary software sets updates, pricing, and features, including built-in AI decisions. **O* *ften uses cloud servers overseas, sending sensitive data outside local legal and technical control.
