Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: [libreoffice-marketing] Sample documents showing off LibreOffice features

Hi :)
"Ages ago" apparently means early(ish) December 2017but i don't think it's
about a specific version of LO - I think they want examples of what is
currently being used by people.

Personally i do tend to use older versions but that could still be useful
to them  Sadly i just don't do anything flashy enough to be worth showing
off and is usually confidential anyway.  Boring and confidential is not an
ideal combination for showing things off!

I get the feeling that they could do with some 'new' things every 6 months
or so.  Prolly better to ask them before spending ages getting something
together - but if you happen to already have something that is easy to
sendthey       ht appreciate it.

Regards from
a Tom :)
