Hi =) How's the migration doing? Can we start wiki pages translations to EN? Cheers 2011/6/16 Marc Paré m...@marcpare.com Le 2011-06-16 13:22, Renata Marques a écrit : Yes, I need help. I tried, but I couldn't do this. I put the {{OrigLang|}} bar, but the wiki recognized the page as En. I didn't move the page yet, so you can see thi at http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/PT-BR/Revista This is making me think that the way is move the page to something like Marketing/Revista/pt-br. So, the English page will be Marketing/Revista. If you have another way to do this, please, just do! But, tell how did you do, I wanna learn it. Regards, Renata Marques 2011/6/16 Renata Marquesremarq...@gmail.com Hi Renata I notice that there has been some rationalization of the page naming conventions for the wiki -- someone has put some time in to create a short manual. We should follow the same TDF wiki naming rules that have been established. ( I have to admit that I have played a bit with some of the wiki pages and did no know of these wiki pages that describe these naming rules. I may have to go back and tweak some of my older wiki pages.) So, you can read up on two pages regarding menus[1] and localization menus[2]. This second link is the one that we should use to observe the rules of the TDF wiki multilingual page building. It looks like an English page will have to be created first and then the localization menu added after this, and then you will have to choose the PT-BR button to create your page and then do the transferring. If this does not make any sense to you, let me know and I will build it. Sorry for my last statements, as I thought that you could make the PT-BR the original language, but the manuals say that you should not be doing this as the EN pages should always be the page without a language code.

Hi Paulo, Bernard et al: Le 2011-06-15 20:44, Paulo de Souza Lima a écrit : This is the real point: We were really commited with LibreOffice until that discussion when we managed to show what was really going on in Brazilian community in this list. I have to say that somehow I was a kind of pessimist about TDF and LibreOffice (personally speaking). I think some people had similar thoughts. In Brazil, many people see with good looking another open source office suite. More choices, more freedom. But people who was working in BrOffice Community still remains with LibreOffice, for now, despite those disagreements. If TDF become more sensible to our needs than used to be, maybe this situation could be pending to a side in favour of TDF and LibreOffice. Sorry for those words, but it's the real truth. I tried to follow the prior discussion you and others from the Brasilian membership had with the TDF members on this list. I hope that many of the issues have been resolved. It is nice to have the PT-BR on our site and helping out and we are all very appreciative of the Brasilian membership. You are all terrific contributors! It will be something like this: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/File:Proposta_capaLibOMagazine01.png http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/File:Proposta_capaLibOMagazine02.png This logo I like better. This the logo of magazine: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/File:Logotipo_revista_proposta_02.png If I understand it right, the magazine is a work of the Brazilian community. In my eyes it should be allowed to use the logo with TDF subline (if you want to use it, of course) describing it as official resource of the community. Well. We were hardly criticized for using it, and also the domain name ( libreoffice.org.br) and the brand in our old website. This would be a 180 degree turnaround. Am I wrong? An official statement giving those rights to Broffice (now LibreOffice) magazine would be pretty nice in order to clear any doubt. I also agree with Bernhard that you should be allowed to use the logo with TDF subline. And, as you are taking a lead in helping organizing the International LibreOffice Magazine, this would also give even more validity to the use of the TDF subline. I don't think that this is a 180 degree turn around; it is just a matter of both groups trying to resolve differences of opinion. I think we are past this and we can now move on. I would think that getting official rights to using the TDF subline on the LibreOffice Magasine Brasil will be permitted by the TDF/SC. Bernhard -- would this have to be taken up on the design mailist?

So now I'm doing that. However, the steps are described in this page: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/PT-BR/Revista/Guia Regards, Renata Hi Renata et al I was just thinking about the organization of the pages on the wiki.

This allows a common language for all groups to be able to participate in all aspects of the TDF/LibreOffice. This way the LibreOffice Magazine Brasil can continue to expand their section as they wish and the other interested NL groups will be able to do their translations of these pages. At least now the placement of the Magazine pages will make more sense in the Marketing section. How does this sound? I think this wiki arrangement for the Marketing section is reasonable. I am not sure if you need special rights to move these pages around. Unless someone objects, you could make the changes.

Ferreira schrieb: = Hi all, for the next issue will have a new layout and a new name, LibreOffice Magazine Brasil. This is really great news! I hope that LibreOffice will get the momentum BrOffice had in the past in Brazil. I'd like to see some kind of advertising for this magazine under it's new name. In my eyes the international community will applaud the Brazilian community for their work - perhaps in blog entries, perhaps in a official press release about the final switch from BrOffice.org to LibreOffice not only for the product, but for the magazine as well. Reading the discussion on the Apache list, there have been many people thinking of BrOffice as independent (forked) development from OpenOffice.org. I'd like to see this corrected, but I can't tell about the impact on the Brazilian community of such a press release. What do you think, Brazilians? Would such a press release be understood as positive reaction by the international community? Yes, i agree. The new fhase of the brazilian magazine deserves to be widely disseminated. +1 for the press release. http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/File:Proposta_capaLibOMagazine01.png If I understand it right, the magazine is a work of the Brazilian community. In my eyes it should be allowed to use the logo with TDF subline (if you want to use it, of course) describing it as official resource of the community. The use of the logo without TDF subline was intentional. Because we did not know the reaction of the international community, but now i know :-) As the subline would interfere with the existing line Magazine Brazil I don't think that this would lead to a better visual design, but I wanted to share my opinion, that the magazine shows a tremendous work by the community in Brazil. That's correct, i'll change it. I like this design :-) Thanks! PS: I know about the concerns inside the Brazilian community, but the work on this magazine is visible and probably took more than 3 months. If the creators would be interested in TDF membership, this would be an easy way to show the Membership committee what they have contributed. With one contact knowing about the amount of work by the single applicant (it doesn't need to be several hours a day or week - it just needs to be significant), it would be quite easy for the MC to approve these applications, I assume. And the more members of a team or local community join TDF as members, the better their community is represented inside the international community. Thanks for the invitation. It will be a pleasure.

Maybe if the idea of an International LibreOffice online magazine was in several of the common languages, like English, French, German, Spanish, etc., besides Brazil's Portuguese THEN it would be more International than what BrOffice's publication was. Some time ago this was discussed in this list. Many people suggested that a multilanguage magazine would be difficult and could not include relevant contents to all countries, ethinics and so on. My personal point of view is: LibreOffice could publish a generic magazine, in english, with content from all over the world. People from specific locations could use the example to produce local magazines. I would love to see a publication, in many languages, that showcased LibreOffice world wide. Have news about what countries and multinational companies are moving away from MSO and towards LibreOffice. Here in Brazil, we thought about an international magazine. We have made a little try when we published an English version for OO International Meeting in 2010. Some of you may have seen it. Maybe with such a publication, in many languages, some organizations, governments, etc., etc., would look at LibreOffice as a more serious player in the office suite market, let alone the Open Source's office suite market. I still have the dream to make it happen. Maybe Klaibson and some other people, including those from BrOffice Magazine (sorry, but we couldn't change its name yet), can join forces and try to make it come true. maybe some people from other countries could help too ;-) I think it's a great idea to have a LibreOffice magazine, created using LibreOffice. There are smaller FLOSS communities that manage to use XeLaTex (!) effectively to create shiny magazines, so this should be doable.

Re: [libreoffice-marketing] Re: [libreoffice-marketing] Re: Magazine LibreOffice International.
2011/6/15 Bernhard Dippold bernh...@familie-dippold.at Hi all, it seems that the relationship between the Brazilian project and the international community is really hard to understand. Indeed. I'm sure about that. But some people are trying to overcome those issues, instead feeding the fire, I think. I'll try to explain what caused this unconrtable situation right below. It is easy to get an impression that supports the personal (negative) thoughts and misgivings about the other side. I believe that none of the comments here have been meant in such a way. Well, in the beginning, Klaibson's proposal seemed extremely strange to us. First, because he is aware that there already is a brazilian magazine. Second, because he didn't discussed the idea with us before bringing it to international arena. Third, because recently he asked for other members from brazilian community to write texts, tutorials and articles to another magazine in Brazil, Espírito Livre, but we are facing some difficulties in doing the same to the BrOffice Magazine. We are not against people to write to any publication they want. Espírito Livre is a well known online magazine from Brazil and They are dedicating an entire issue to LibreOffice. That's really good, I think! Our concern was because Klaibson and other people in brazilian lists seemed to prefer giving more emphasis to a publication from outside, than the one made by the community. Sincerely, I think Klaibson could put his idea into discussion in brazilian lists before bringing it to marketing@. His move caused some paranoid reactions here, unfortunately. Back to the topic: I fully support the idea of informing the international community about local activities. And the BrOffice magazine is a really great task that has the chance to become the nucleus of an international magazine. They already translaetd some of their previous magazines to English and made it available for the international community. Thanks. But as always the restrictions for any volunteer work is time and people dedicated to a certain task. Yes, that's our concern. But our experience shows that it's not so difficult than it seems to be. The major difficulty must be joining volunteers from other parts of the world and building a publishing process easy for all. Dedication time will affect the necessary time to release each issue, but it can be solved with issues each two or three months, instead of monthly. In this case we would be gaining experience and cuting the edges for a future monthly magazine. The fact is: if we don't start something we will never do that. The Brazilian team is still too small to fulfill their own tasks in a time they want to, so they can't spend their resources on an international magazine. Again, yes. And that's why we couldn't understand why Klaibson prefered to take an isolated initiative, instead of talking to the BrOffice Magazine volunteers and join efforts. I really see the positive aspect of a magazine that might contain international parts (like how-tos, tips--tricks, success stories etc...) as well as a local part with topics only relevant to this area. A general available design, easy re-usable templates and our community branding might ease the possibilty for different local / localized magazines based on the same source. It would be nice, indeed. But as Italo already said: it is a huge task and needs long time dedication. If there is a group interested in working on such a topic, I'm sure the Brazilian team would help you with their knowledge - you might even re-use some of the work they created for the BrOffice magazine. We feel grateful for that. To be crysal clear: nobody at TDF is interested in centralized decisions on local activities (except the trademark issues, where we should have addressed our concerns in a way better to be understood for the Brazilian community). The Brazilian magazine is a very positive sign not only for LibreOffice in Brazil, but (as it shows, that it is possible to do such work in our community) for the international community too. It should never be replaced by anything else - but perhaps it is possible to create an international team based on their experiences. We really want to help on that. Thanks again for the opportunity.

Re: [libreoffice-marketing] Re: Magazine LibreOffice International.
Hi Helio, all, Helio S. Ferreira schrieb: = Hi all, for the next issue will have a new layout and a new name, LibreOffice Magazine Brasil. This is really great news! I hope that LibreOffice will get the momentum BrOffice had in the past in Brazil. I'd like to see some kind of advertising for this magazine under it's new name. In my eyes the international community will applaud the Brazilian community for their work - perhaps in blog entries, perhaps in a official press release about the final switch from BrOffice.org to LibreOffice not only for the product, but for the magazine as well. Reading the discussion on the Apache list, there have been many people thinking of BrOffice as independent (forked) development from OpenOffice.org. I'd like to see this corrected, but I can't tell about the impact on the Brazilian community of such a press release. What do you think, Brazilians? Would such a press release be understood as positive reaction by the international community? It will be something like this: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/File:Proposta_capaLibOMagazine01.png http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/File:Proposta_capaLibOMagazine02.png This logo I like better. This the logo of magazine: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/File:Logotipo_revista_proposta_02.png If I understand it right, the magazine is a work of the Brazilian community. In my eyes it should be allowed to use the logo with TDF subline (if you want to use it, of course) describing it as official resource of the community. As the subline would interfere with the existing line Magazine Brazil I don't think that this would lead to a better visual design, but I wanted to share my opinion, that the magazine shows a tremendous work by the community in Brazil. Here's a sample of the new graphic design: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/cgi_img_auth.php/e/ee/LibreOffice_Magazine_BR_Gramado.pdf http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/cgi_img_auth.php/5/55/LibreOffice_Magazine_BR_AssinaturaDigital.pdf http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/cgi_img_auth.php/3/3e/LibreOffice_Magazine_BR_ODF.pdf I like this design :-) Thanks for sharing! Best regards Bernhard PS: I know about the concerns inside the Brazilian community, but the work on this magazine is visible and probably took more than 3 months. If the creators would be interested in TDF membership, this would be an easy way to show the Membership committee what they have contributed. With one contact knowing about the amount of work by the single applicant (it doesn't need to be several hours a day or week - it just needs to be significant), it would be quite easy for the MC to approve these applications, I assume. And the more members of a team or local community join TDF as members, the better their community is represented inside the international community. -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to marketing+h...@global.libreoffice.org Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/marketing/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
Re: [libreoffice-marketing] Re: Magazine LibreOffice International.
Hi. I´m following the conversation about an international magazine. My suggestion: Instead of making an international magazine now (for the reasons discussed as availability, etc.), who find a portal to international news? Initially we could have a website / portal (something like joomla, wordpress , etc) that looks like site and not wiki) where we put the news, tutorials, tips, etc. in each country? We could have initially categories of tutorials, tips, news, events for each of the countries want to have someone a user to enter content. I think that makes it easier by not having to layout and make it more dynamic. What do you think?

Re: [libreoffice-marketing] Re: Magazine LibreOffice International.
I'll try to explain. Once again we are faced with an issue which is not applicable to the TDF and marketing list. This a internal question. Although I do not believe that TDF is so alienated. Did not take the death of BrOffice.org. That still leaves the death of the BrOffice magazine and any semblance of this ill-fated brand. I did not believe it would come back, but came back!

Re: [libreoffice-marketing] Re: Magazine LibreOffice International.
Hi :) There is a lot of extreme emotion about this area. BrOffice seems to have been excellent for many years, gained a good reputation, good people and did great work. Inevitably any large community will have misunderstandings and different people heading in different directions but all believing they are doing the best for the whole community. Sometimes people are too enthusiastic and haven't noticed what already exists or how their ideas might already be being implemented. I think it's best to guide people into what is already going on so that they can channel their enthusiasm in a positive direction. The post that sparked this controversy was clearly not written in the person native language so the misunderstanding should be easier to clarify on Brazilian lists. Most of the good stuff about BrOffice seems to have merged into the wider community here at TDF in the LibreOffice community. It has enriched the wider community considerably. Most of the good people are here now, and the structures, websites, the passion and so on. It does still retain a unique identity even if the name has changed. It's influencing the wider community too now :) Regards from Tom :) From: luizh...@gmail.com luizh...@gmail.com To: marketing@global.libreoffice.org Sent: Wed, 15 June, 2011 0:53:11 Subject: Re: [libreoffice-marketing] Re: Magazine LibreOffice International.

Re: [libreoffice-marketing] Re: Magazine LibreOffice International.
The only problem I had with the BrOffice online magazine was there was no English Translation. Maybe if the idea of an International LibreOffice online magazine was in several of the common languages, like English, French, German, Spanish, etc., besides Brazil's Portuguese THEN it would be more International than what BrOffice's publication was. I would love to see a publication, in many languages, that showcased LibreOffice world wide. Have news about what countries and multinational companies are moving away from MSO and towards LibreOffice. Maybe with such a publication, in many languages, some organizations, governments, etc., etc., would look at LibreOffice as a more serious player in the office suite market, let alone the Open Source's office suite market.

Re: [libreoffice-marketing] Re: Magazine LibreOffice International.
2011/6/14 webmaster for Kracked Press Productions webmas...@krackedpress.com The only problem I had with the BrOffice online magazine was there was no English Translation. Maybe if the idea of an International LibreOffice online magazine was in several of the common languages, like English, French, German, Spanish, etc., besides Brazil's Portuguese THEN it would be more International than what BrOffice's publication was. Some time ago this was discussed in this list. Many people suggested that a multilanguage magazine would be difficult and could not include relevant contents to all countries, ethinics and so on. My personal point of view is: LibreOffice could publish a generic magazine, in english, with content from all over the world. People from specific locations could use the example to produce local magazines. I would love to see a publication, in many languages, that showcased LibreOffice world wide. Have news about what countries and multinational companies are moving away from MSO and towards LibreOffice. Here in Brazil, we thought about an international magazine. We have made a little try when we published an English version for OO International Meeting in 2010. Some of you may have seen it. Maybe with such a publication, in many languages, some organizations, governments, etc., etc., would look at LibreOffice as a more serious player in the office suite market, let alone the Open Source's office suite market. I still have the dream to make it happen. Maybe Klaibson and some other people, including those from BrOffice Magazine (sorry, but we couldn't change its name yet), can join forces and try to make it come true. maybe some people from other countries could help too ;-) Cheers -- Paulo de Souza Lima Técnico em Eletrônica e Administrador http://www.pasl.net.br http://almalivre.wordpress.com Curitiba - PR Linux User #432358 Ubuntu User #28729 -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to marketing+h...@global.libreoffice.org Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/marketing/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
