Re: [libreoffice-design] [VOTE CLOSED] Christoph Noack is Design Team Lead!

Hi Christoph,

first of all, I want to apologize for being away for the past couple of 
weeks. I work in the mental health field and it is a rather unstable 
ground (pun intended), and I had to work on the weekends, which I 
usually use to study and work on things for my own (in which I include 
LibreOffice). This is to say that I have some work to do collecting 
sugestions on the Styles subject, and this will be done as soon as I 
find the time (hopefully soon enough).

Secondly, I echo Ivan in that the Download page is a priority, but I add 
that the whole marketing stuff is priority. This is not our sole 
responsability, but I feel many people (specially in the Microsoft/Apple 
environment) aren't really aware that OpenOffice is past, and 
LibreOffice is present (no need for false modesty in here). Most people 
that have used or still use OpenOffice haven't realized there's another 
project with much more love dedicated to it flying about. For those who 
use one or another linux distribution this was made pretty 
straighforward as we know, but in the other fields people are not quite 
as much aware of updates, and even less aware that they should (in our 
opinion or at least in our wishes) change to LibO. And it's already been 
some time.

This is only a thought. I know there are some people working on this but 
I don't know what steps are they taking in that direction, and I don't 
even have an immediate suggestion, but since you asked, I believe we 
could add some intencional effort on that.

Cheers,
Rafael./
