| <H2 CLASS="western">Why We are Having the competition</H2> |
| <P>OpenOffice.org is becoming more and moer widely used. The |
| community continues to gain strength and grow but we recognize that |
| we do not have a wealth of templates and clipart under our own |
| banner. Even the external sites that provide these are not expanding |
| their collections; so here's the challenge. Create and submit |
| templates and clipart as part of the competition and be eligible for |
| a share of cash awards of over US$5000 provided by our sponsor, |
| worldart.com, and other awards.</P> |
| <P><BR><BR> |
| </P> |
| <P>The OpenOffice.org documentation project is running this |
| competition in conjunction with WorldArt, which, we hope, is the |
| start of a series of competitions. OpenOffice.org lives as open |
| SOURCE Community of the interest and commitment of its users and |
| project members. Each user of OpenOffice.org is called to provide own |
| templates or clipart and send these in. These will become publicly |
| available from <A HREF="http://documentation.openoffice.org/Samples_Templates/index.html">http://documentation.openoffice.org/Samples_Templates/</A></P> |
| <H3 CLASS="western">NOTE: Entries MUST come with an explanation and |
| be released under the LGPL to be considered. A screenshot of the work |
| would also be appreciated but not essential. Submissions will be by |
| email to the following address <A HREF="mailto:contest@documentation.openoffice.org">contest@documentation.openoffice.org</A></H3> |
| <P STYLE="font-weight: medium"><FONT SIZE=3>Submissions must be date |
| stamped before 23h59 on 3 October 2006 to the email address above as |
| attachments. Depending on the number of submissions, notification of |
| the winners, is expected to be completed by 31 October 2006 or |
| sooner.</FONT></P> |
| <H2 CLASS="western"><A NAME="teil"></A>Conditions of participation |
| </H2> |
| <P>Everyone can participate and may submit as many submissions (one |
| per message) as they can without penalty. |
| </P> |
| <P>All templates submitted must be presented in open OpenOffice.org |
| template format (e.g. * ott * for Writer templates). Clipart may be |
| in any graphic format, including Draw.</P> |
| <P>Templates should have an appropriate, generally accepted |
| utilization value and not be "banal". The submitted |
| templates should useful to other users. For example, an empty Writer |
| file with inserted, current date is surely no "meaningful" |
| template. However, a Calc spreadsheet template that can be used for |
| cataloguing a stamp collection or other collection will surely |
| qualify. |
| </P> |

| accounting templates, newsletters, resumes, expense reports, base |

| personalize, have areas for businesses to insert logos, create all |
| types of useful templates for all types of home and business uses for |
| our community to share.</P> |
