Re: [tdf-discuss] I like the name LibreOffice

Thank you Stefan,

I'm not hooked on any partiacular name just two main principlpes.

1) That the International English name be easy on the tongue for
English speakers
 and with that, that thought be given to language group names in the same way

2) The name mean something for the users (more than for the developers
if necessary)

Incorporating in the name principles of philosophy of development - -
or project administration, will unfrotunately not be of apparent
importance or help to potential general new users.

Names that 'sell the product' or 'introduce the product' from a user's
perspective would be very helpful in helping increase the uptake of
the office suite amongst as yet unreached people.
