This had already been discussed a couple of years ago, I can't seem to 
find the thread. The reason for not doing this was that we were trying 
to stay away from the OOo installation routine where people were asked 
if they would like to create an OOo account. People thought it was too 
invasive.

I, myself, for marketing purposes, think it would be a great idea, and, 
yes, it is invasive, but I think people are used to seeing these 
messages. I am not sure if I would like it at the point of download as 
at the download process, the user has not shown a commitment to use the 
software. I would prefer this in the installation routine where the 
commitment level is higher; it could just be one more step in the 
installation process (last step).

If we are to ask multiple questions, we should not ask more than 3 
questions. Anything more than 3 gets to be too much for people to 
handle, I have seen this proven in classrooms over and over again in the 
last 18 years of teaching at either elementary school level or at 
university summer courses where I taught.

This should really be put up for discussion on the "Discussion list" to 
see if people have changed their minds from 2 years ago when we left the 
OOo project.

Good suggestions though.

Cheers,

Marc
