Hi Jan, all!
Just a short question ...

It's not at all a final design - not even a mockup.
It's just a visual brainstorming:

This is great - serving a big different purpose than I originally
thought, though :-) It is very well graphically explaining the overall
picture, but I thought more of a tag that you 'see and know'.
John's original idea was to have something easy, with high impact, that
makes your decision in up to 5 seconds. Something like "I feel more
like a corporate user; OK, I'll choose 3.3.2". That's what I hope the
'adopt-o-meter' could do.
Mmh, the adopt-o-meter shows it nicely (which is good), but the decision
itself has to be done by the user (how to select the desired LibO
version, where do I find it, ...).
Can this be somehow aligned with the download selector on the website?
Something like:
* "Official Release, for home and office use" --> default
* "Highly stable, for corporate use"
* "Newest Features, for early adopters"
So, the users may decide - but don't need to. And the decision to go for
(e.g.) stability is directly tied to a certain version - no additional
lookups.
