Re: [libreoffice-marketing] LibreOffice Christmas card

Thanks, everyone.

The more time you have between the mailed cards and Christmas gives more 
"enjoyment".  I have many people/organizations/companies on my email 
address book who may enjoy your "Christmas Card".  For me, this would be 
a great way let them know we support our worldwide developers, not just 
the "product".

Since I read about many USA non-personal use of open source is one the 
rise, supporting the developers of open source packages is one way to 
let all of us tell these developers we support their efforts.

SO I say again - Thanks Everyone.

:-)


Most users [honest opinion from comments I have been given] do not have 
time to read blogs and other online reading on "products". They trust 
others to let them know what may be best for them to use.  I have had 
people trust me to use open source products since OpenOffice added .doc 
read/write to their office package.  I learned of OOo from the author's 
notes in a book from my favorite SciFi author.  Later, I read about 
LibreOffice coming out when OOo stopped updating/upgrading.  I have been 
a LO users ever since. Most of the users of OOo, who I advised to use 
it, has switched to LO within a year of my switching to LO as my default 
office package.

For people who must use MS Office, at work, I have convinced some to use 
.doc instead of .docx going to people outside of their internal office 
use.  Since different agencies/organizations/companies use various 
versions of MS Office.  For MS Office, and other packages, .doc is the 
easiest to be read/modified/returned.  One day, I would love to see .odt 
as the default format, since MS does not control it.
