Documentation Project Template/Clipart Competition   
Monday, October 02 2006 @ 01:24 PM EDT
Contributed by: sde

OpenOffice.org is becoming more and more widely used. OpenOffice.org's Open Document Format (ODF) has received both OASIS and the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) approval--a first for an office file format--and some countries, such as Belgium and Malaysia, to name but two, will be migrating government offices to ODF. But for all the application's and format's popularity, users lack a wealth of templates and clipart. Let's change that!

Here then is the challenge: Create and submit templates and clipart as part of the competition and be eligible for a share of the cash and other awards totaling over USD$5000. (You are always welcome to send in works outside the contest as well.) Winners will be given the opportunity of including their templates in the OpenOffice.org installation sets.

The OpenOffice.org Documentation Project is running this competition in conjunction with Worldlabel.com, which is generously providing the funding for the prizes. We hope this contest is but a start of others, and we also think it is a fine occasion for the community to show their support of OpenOffice.org and contribute. We are thus calling on each user of the suite to provide templates or clipart items and send these in. These will ultimately become publicly available from http://documentation.openoffice.org/Samples_Templates/
