Hi,

the startcenter currently (beta1) says:

 "Welcome! You can open or create a new document!"

are there plans to improve this somehow still? This is the new face of
LibreOffice? From the top of my head:

- Two exclamation marks arent good
- "You can open or create a new document" is:
  - a tautology mostly here
  - and doesnt say _how_ in addition, which might be helpful, given that a user
    might be surprised by the changes
 - nothing in the startcenter names the product at all

So if this hasnt been discussed yet, Id suggest to at least make that simply:

 "Welcome to LibreOffice!"

pending a better proposal.

Best,

Bjoern
