This is really great news!

I hope that LibreOffice will get the momentum BrOffice had in the past 
in Brazil.

I'd like to see some kind of advertising for this magazine under it's 
new name.

In my eyes the international community will applaud the Brazilian 
community for their work - perhaps in blog entries, perhaps in a 
official press release about the final switch from BrOffice.org to 
LibreOffice not only for the product, but for the magazine as well.

Reading the discussion on the Apache list, there have been many people 
thinking of BrOffice as independent (forked) development from 
OpenOffice.org.

I'd like to see this corrected, but I can't tell about the impact on the 
Brazilian community of such a press release.

What do you think, Brazilians?

Would such a press release be understood as positive reaction by the 
international community?

This logo I like better.

If I understand it right, the magazine is a work of the Brazilian 
community. In my eyes it should be allowed to use the logo with TDF 
subline (if you want to use it, of course) describing it as official 
resource of the community.

As the subline would interfere with the existing line "Magazine Brazil" 
I don't think that this would lead to a better visual design, but I 
wanted to share my opinion, that the magazine shows a tremendous work by 
the community in Brazil.

I like this design :-)

Thanks for sharing!

PS: I know about the concerns inside the Brazilian community, but the 
work on this magazine is visible and probably took more than 3 months.
If the creators would be interested in TDF membership, this would be an 
easy way to show the Membership committee what they have contributed.
With one contact knowing about the amount of work by the single 
applicant (it doesn't need to be several hours a day or week - it just 
needs to be "significant"), it would be quite easy for the MC to approve 
these applications, I assume.

And the more members of a team or local community join TDF as members, 
the better their community is represented inside the international 
community.
