Oh, thanks for the introduction. I didn't knew that - great thing!

Thanks a lot. At the moment, we use another icon (you based your work
on) that is meant to be a placeholder until the trademark questions are
resolved and until we get a bit more feedback by the broader LibO
community concerning the branding.

So I propose to stick with the current one (for more or less official
things like the software or the websites) to keep things consistent. I
hope that this consistency helps us to retain/gain the trust by users
who are new to LibO.

By the way, we currently use "LibreOffice" instead of "LibreOffice.org".

one who knows best what teachers need to understand the FLOSS world
(because I noticed that the Ubuntu logo is a bit different as well). You
may also use the "more serious" one, if you think it's more appropriate.

Thanks a lot for your great work to make FLOSS widely known :-)

Cheers,
