Hi all,
I've been doing some prep work for LinuxFest NW, and noticed a few
things we might want to update on this page:
https://www.libreoffice.org/about-us/who-are-we/
- Because of dual licensing, we should reference both the LGPL and
MPL, or generalize the language
- I'd like to clarify the statement:
"[we] believe in the principles of free software...the promise of
better-quality, highly-reliable and secure software that gives you
greater flexibility at zero cost"
We do offer the LibreOffice product for zero cost, but I think we
should be clearer that use of/migration to LibreOffice can be greatly
helped by having technical support provided either by internal or
external appropriately-trained technical staff, which may cost
something.
Yes and let's not forget that even if LibreOffice binaries were to be
sold at 50 bucks "a piece", we would still be conveying the most
fundamental rights and aspects of software freedom.
While this is not an encouragement to create sites that makes you buy
LibreOffice, I think it is important to stress more on the benefits of
software freedom besides the importance of technical and management
guidance for migrations.
- Anything else you'd suggest improving on that webpage?
With some post website release hindssght, I think it's important to
stress that we -try to- base our actions on a document few have read:
the Next Decade Manifesto: http://www.documentfoundation.org/foundation/
This is our "We the People" document and it's what was and is used as
the cornerstone of the LibreOffice project. It's important to highlight
it I think.
Best,
Charles.
Best,

P.S. I just noticed the 'Credits' page was last updated in June 2013
-- I'll see about getting that updated as well.
