Hi all

I don't like the name LibreOffice.

But I don't think the time is right for a new name yet.

The community behind the office suite have to be established both concerning the existing office suites based on OpenOffice.org - do they become a part of this or will the be on the sideline. And concerning which kind of organisation it will become.

Oracle has not stated if they will give the rights to the name OpenOffice.org to us so the name could be kept - or we really have to continue with LibreOffice or find a new name.

If the work on a new name should be started then we have to set up a list of guidelines for such name - and keep the work on the new name on a closed mailing list so others wont registrate the name and domain names before we had the time to do it ourselves.

And open competition to get more name suggestions from everyone could still be in the open - but not the work on selecting the name.

I would be interested to be in such a workgroup.

The most enjoyable greetings
