As this is a work-in-progress for the marketing team, let's decide on 
some of the changes.

Daniel: Thanks for the new versions.

=======================

Re: panels 1 & 2 of the pamphlet suggested by Daniel:
The reason I prefer the version we worked on is that we put the 
LibreOffice module descriptions found on panels 1 and 2 of the pamphlet 
in a table. This made it easier to fit in the icons and also easier for 
the translation/localization of that section without making it difficult 
for other nl teams to work with.

Your version returns to the previous model, which to me makes the look 
of the different module sections on panels 1 and 2 look different in 
shape (one or two lines under the icon text wrapping).

IMO, we should try to help ease the possibility of translation of the 
pamphlet if we can. Most nl teams are really small and may not have the 
manpower or time to spend on tweaking the brochure. We can help with our 
own type of "QA" by offering marketing materials that help nl teams easy 
translation and dissemination of materials.

Do we keep the original version WITH the table setup?
Or go back to Daniel's version setup WITHOUT the table setup?

=======================

Re: Module title "text description":
I do like the text description next to the module titles, even if they 
are unnecessary. It is like giving a short summary of the summary. Handy 
for people who are looking for a specific item ... it gives them a quick 
idea of what the component is all about. Good idea.

Do we adopt the text written next to the component titles as suggested 
by Daniel?
Do we leave the titles there with no extra text?

=======================

REMINDER

NOTE that the pamphlet has the LibreOffice subline (TDF) at the top and 
should not be used for community use. We will make up two new ones with 
the same final text but without the subline.

Cheers,

Marc
