Call it "OpenBar" then.
Open like OpenOffice. Bar like in Toolbar. And "Open Bar" like "get
everything you want for free". Oh well.
Everything You answer me, that's my suggestion is apparently
uncomfortable.
It isn't. You raised a point that is indeed new. Nobody so far had
thought about the naming issue. But I agree that you have a point here:
if it is a unique feature, it makes sense to at least think about a
possible cute name for it. You contributed a fresh point of view into
the project, and nobody complained about this.
It is very important to the AOO has good technical quality, but if we
believe it is sufficient for success, we are wrong.
Our developers are very reasonable people. Juergen gave pragmatic
answers... that were totally to be expected if you come up with this
idea on the same day when we finalize the help contents for translation!
But for sure our developers do not expect to be worshipped and they are
very friendly towards the community at large (remember, they do
subscribe to this list and live with it despite the huge amount of
non-technical content here). So I don't agree with your opinion that
developers cannot see that marketing is important: they do see it, but
their day-to-day concern is to produce high-quality software... and give
other volunteers awesome software to promote!

Andrea.
