Hello Milosh, Thanks for writing. We're currently starting a new recruitment activity for volunteers interested in Marketing. So your timing is perfect. We're undergoing a brand refresh for our next major release -- Apache OpenOffice 4.0 -- and this will impact the visual signature of the product and the website. Discussions are still early, so this is a good time to get involved. (Timeframe for 4.0 is probably March/April 2013) We're talking about holding a contest, conducting a user survey, etc. If you want to get involved in this part of the project, you'll want to join our marketing mailing list. More information on our marketing activities, and how to join this list can be found here: http://incubator.apache.org/openofficeorg/orientation/intro-marketing.html I hope to talk more with you on the marketing list soon! Regards, -Rob > Thanks! > Milosh
