Hi Marc, all!

I thought a little bit about this issue ...

If possible, that would be okay and maybe a "quick fix".

Do you refer to the upper navigation? I think we should avoid to
directly refer to the LibreOffice main site. If the user clicks on it,
there is a "cross site change" that does not relate to the menu items
(because all will change at once, no simple way to go back by using the
menu again).

A good solution would be to have an own menu item "LibreOffice" that has
its dedicated (small) page on the challenge website. Just a few
sentences outlining LibreOffice and providing a link in the text to
switch to the main website. This would make things pretty clear.

Cheers,
Christoph
