OpenOffice UI Design Proposals Published

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on from the file-formatting-issues-more-pressing dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Various members of the OpenOffice.org community have been submitting their first revisions of proposals to the OpenOffice.org Call for Design Proposals to redesign the user interface of Open Office. As part of Project Renaissance, attention is being drawn to the OpenOffice user interface, and it's 'user-friendliness.' Among the designs, is FLUX UI, which won an award at the Sun Microsystems Community Innovation Awards Program. Anyone can, and is encouraged, to check out the proposals (scroll to bottom of page) and leave your comments so that the designers can improve their designs for the final deadline for proposal submissions to the community."

    I know its off topic, but I don't know the correct locations to post this...

    A few days ago I stopped seeing the story comment counts on the main page. Is this a bug in Firefox or were they removed? If removed, why? They provided me valued information about the story.

    I've got Karma TOO burn!
    Plus, I know how slashdot works. Wait for an article to pop up from kdawson, then post "This article is nonsense!" or even "Kdawson sucks!". You'll have plenty of +1 informatives.

    Sound like cheating? Not really, usually the article IS nonsense.

    Yes, but installing OpenOffice3 gives back about 50 vertical pixels and makes it MUCH more usable.
