Whoosh, sounds there is a lot of interest in this discussion !<br><br>In my opinion, we shouldn't try to embrace everything neither to be too specific... Think about the projects and people at LGM this year, and try to reflect that : we aren't hostile to musicians, but that's not the domain where we are fluent. On the other side, we aren't only artists nor designers.<br><br>It's aim to be a cross project for "libre" drawings, 3D, webdesign, print, automating tools like Phatch, typography, scripting, etc... it will join different peoples (developers, designers and artists, and also teachers) in a common interest. The name mustn't exclude part of it, neither try to embrace the whole world ...<br> <br>maybe we can think to something more similar to "reclaim your tools" like the "free brush foundation" (Ok, it's stupid, but you get the idea).<br><br>Hard exercise, but let's keep going the brain storming !<br> <br><br><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">2010/5/31 Thorsten Wilms <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:t_w_@freenet.de">t_w_@freenet.de</a>></span><br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;"> <div class="im">On Mon, 2010-05-31 at 14:36 +0200, John Haltiwanger wrote:<br> <br> > Graphics doesn't include type..
