Bug Description
I recently gave a presentation on "Copyright, Licensing, FLOSS and FUD" which was a brief overview of what each of them was, and how they interacted in today's software world. This presentation is distributed under the Creative Commons License, Attribute required, No commercial use, Share alike 3.0. (However, being the creator, I have the right to relicense as necessary). The work was created in OpenOffice.org 2.4.
Admittedly, one would not necessarily think of a presentation as being marketing material, but I feel that there are too many questions (and too many derogatory comments from FLOSS detractors) that need to be answered before Ubuntu or any Free/Libre Open Source Software will gain acceptance in some quarters. It was for this reason that I created the presentation, first given at the ABLEconf Open Source Conference in Phoenix, Arizona. If you are interested (even just in carving the information up to use in other ways) please let me know and I would be happy to share it.
I understand. This was actually one of my original intentions to have. However, we have no automatic way of thumbnailing presentations at the moment.
Do you think users would be ok with adding their own image to be used as a thumbnail?
