Hi John, :-) Thank you for the very kind words. And great thanks, too, for the support you've offered to TDF and the LibreOffice project. :-)
As regards any apology, well, anyone who puts forward a controversial idea in an Open Source project had better be thick-skinned, and had better be ready with good arguments! I know how these things go, so no worries there. ;-) Also, in the LibO list thread, Thorsten did examine both sides of the issue, so I can't fault his constructive discussion, even though I'm aware that - on balance - he doesn't support the idea I'm advancing. I'm not sure what the ultimate decision will be regarding a logo/mascot contest. But I am certain that it was a very positive thing to have established contact between TDF/LibO and Ubuntu - both for LibO and as a general initiative between FOSS projects. I'm sure this is just the start of what will turn out to be a longstanding communication and collaboration. So a big thanks to you, John, for having been so receptive, positive and proactively helpful about it. Meanwhile, for the moment, seeing the other messages incoming to this thread, I think we'd better both just duck and run, mate! :-D See you soon in another thread! ;-) David Nelson "The light shineth in the darkness, and the darkness shall not overcome it." -- ubuntu-art mailing list ubuntu-art@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-art
