Je propose de faire imprimer des cartes de voeux (Noël-Nouvel an) à la
gloire de LiLux et des logiciels libres.
500 cartes de qualité professionnelle (soit 5 par membre) pour ~75EUR,
que je prendrai à ma charge s'il le faut.
Je n'indiquerais pas l'année, de manière à pouvoir ré-utiliser les
cartes non envoyées l'année prochaine.
Je cherche des illustrations sympa, libre de droits ou dont les auteurs
pourraient nous céder les droits gratuitement.
Ex: http://www.marie-france.org/images/FONDS ANIMAUX/FOND ECRAN ANIMAL
27.jpg
<http://www.marie-france.org/images/FONDS%20ANIMAUX/FOND%20ECRAN%20ANIMAL%20…>
Bien sûr, on y ajouterait un petit message invitant à faire de l'année
2009 leur année de découverte des logiciels libres, et l'URL de notre
site web.
Le but serait d'envoyer ces cartes _à des gens hors du cercle des "usual
suspects"_ !
Qu'en pensez-vous ? En quoi pouvez-vous m'aider ?

Excel is a proprietary, secret format specific to a given software, a
given vendor, a given operating system.
It's exactly the point of my mail. Please *_READ IT_*.
Professional companies (as Nortel, AT&T, Cisco, Google, Sun
Microsystems, ...) only use standard formats. Excel *IS NOT A STANDARD
FORMAT*.
I don't use neither Microsoft operating systems, neither Ms-Office
suite. I have no reasons to switch from a modern efficient software
suite that respects the published ISO standards (as ASCII, OpenDocument,
HTML, CSV, ...) to fall into an expensive, unsafe and inefficient system
as Ms-Office on Windows just to be able to read your mails. Exchanging
informations requires a common standard, and MS-Office file format is
not standardised, neither even published, and consequently not
interoperable.
I can't do anything with a Ms-Office Excel file, exactly as you probably
couldn't do anything if I sent you an AutoCAD 2008 file.

I received you mail, but unfortunately, I can't open the attachement, as
it is in proprietary secret format.
Please use stadardised, published, interoperable, portable formats as
OpenDocument
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenDocument_standardization>, PDF
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pdf>, HTML
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Html>, CSV
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comma-separated_values> or even ASCII
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ASCII> if you want to be read.
I advice you OpenOffice <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenOffice.org> as
free and portable tool to produce those various formats. It is
downloadable for almost any platform from http://www.openoffice.org
If you are using Ms-Office, the Office2007 SP2 provides an export
function in the interoperable, standardised format OpenDocument.
For older releases, Sun Microsystems provides /gratis/ a plugin that
allows also exportations in this format.
Here are some links to articles to explain my position.
