Thanks for pointing here, as we haven't been able to finish the work on 
our galleries containing graphical resources for internal and external 
visual representation of LibreOffice:

If I understand you right, you need an icon to be used on iPad desktops 
as direct link to the documentation blog http://libodocs.wordpress.com/

Do you want to use a similar icon on the blog itself?

While on the blog it would be no problem to use the main application 
icon (like this one: 
http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/File:Libo-list-icon.png), for iPads 
the question is a bit different:

We need to avoid some misinterpretations:
1) The icon does not open LibreOffice locally on the iPad.
2) The icon does not link to the official LibreOffice homepage.
3) The icon does not link to the main LibreOffice blog.

So the icon needs to identify the link target as
- web based
- being a blog
- dedicated to the documentation team.

Adding some graphics inside the document symbol could interfere with the 
branding guidelines 
(http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Marketing/Branding), because the 
application icons is just a refined symbol from the logo.

For such a dedicated design it would be important to know the size of 
other icons on iPad, so we can include the possibility for more or less 
details our ideas and drafts.

Does anybody know about the size for standard iPad application icons?

Best regards

Bernhard
