I was looking in my ISO folder and I realized that yesterday was an anniversary.

One year and one day ago, I created the "first" LibreOffice North American 
Community DVD .iso file.  That was for LO 3.3.3.

Today, I created an updated 3.5.4 .iso file for my use.  Next week will be 
3.5.5.

One year of making and handing out NA-DVDs to the local community.  I do not 
know how many 100's of DVD I have made in that year's time.  I do not remember 
all the business, government offices, and individuals that I have given a copy 
of the DVDs to.

LibreOffice has grown a lot since then.  So has the NA-DVD. Much of the DVD has 
not changed much, except the theme, the extensions, templates, and other files 
that are listed in its pages.  Old version have been updated, if available.  
New items added.  My, KPP English dictionaries were developed for LO [and 
OOo/AOO].  And other thing, good and bad, has happened during this past year 
that has changed the project and myself.

The LibreOffice project is coming up on its 2 year anniversary.  During that 
time, OOo has been dropped my Oracle and picked up by Apache and renamed AOO.

I started with LO back in its 3.3.0 beta days and dropped OOo then and there.  
I started working on the idea of a DVD to hand out to friends, family, and 
business people I knew when LO went to 3.3.1.  Then that idea developed into 
the North American Community DVD Project.  Back then, the hope was to put out 
an English version, A Spanish version, and a French version.  Well, at least 
the English project went ahead.  I do not speak or read any other "human 
language".  I can only deal with English [human] and programming languages 
[computer].

I hope that the next year will see a growth in the NA-DVD project and at least 
10 times as many users using LibreOffice.

Let us all make the next year be a great year for LibreOffice and all of the 
regional projects for marketing and distribution of LO to their users.
