We'll look into these and post a newer version soon.

Sorry, 5.0 was just a number I picked at random.

The pamphlets at this point are only to promote LibreOffice v.4.0. As 
far as doing a re-make of the design, then we should all, 
marketing-design-website-docs, cooperate so that the overall look and 
feel is more fluid. Unfortunately, the docs are being published on Lulu, 
the website is published, so we (marketing and design) are the trailing 
end of all of this process. Matching up the look and feel of what is 
being used at present is the only common sense thing to do.

Looking at the release plan[1], IMO, we could perhaps re-tool for maybe 
4.2 at the earliest, but I doubt we will have all of the website theme 
design sorted out by then. I would suggest to perhaps hold off till 4.3 
at the earliest (it is not on the release plan yet).

Tim or I will post an updated pamphlet here to check as soon as we have 
updated it.

Cheers,

Marc
