Re new OSGeo-Live Logo:<br>
* I feel strongly that the OSGeo-Live logo should be derived from
the OSGeo logo, but not be the same as the OSGeo logo.<br>
* I feel it is important to say we are proud of our OSGeo roots and
associations, but also acknowledge and celebrate our added
uniqueness. We are a family within a larger community.<br>
* I suspect you will find all OSGeo sub-projects feel similarly, and
hence will want sub-brands.<br>
* Hence I think [1] (proposal logo with heart) is better than [2].<br>
* However, I think we can do better than [1]. With our shot
timelines I would reluctantly accept [1] for next release, with
intent to revisit later.<br>
<br>
I'd be interested to see if Brian Hamlin puts something together. He
has an artistic flair and I've really liked artwork he has created
for prior OSGeo-Live releases.<br>
<br>
Re OSGeo Incubation:<br>
* I've answered on the incubation list, but in short, I suggest we
revisit the question after OSGeo-Live 11.0 release.<span class=""><br>

<div><br>
</div>
<div>You may remember me asking what 'live" was meaning
for osgeo live, judging from early art assets in
github (the svn banner had hidden early prototypes of
the logo). The thinking was "pulse" with hearts and
heart rate monitors tracking which projects were
actually alive. The other meaning I could come up with
was a live demo, rather than a static demo.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Both Marc (strong marketing background) and the
graphics designer (really proud of the new logo and
visuals). They wanted to ask if OSGeo Live would be
willing to use the following:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
</span><div><a href="https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B08AjQ2hqLipZjJsSG12a19HcWM" target="_blank">[2]
https://drive.google.com/open?<wbr>id=<wbr>0B08AjQ2hqLipZjJsSG12a19HcWM</a><br>
</div><span class="">
<div><br>
</div>
<div>This is an interesting tradeoff:</div>
<div>- because no other software project is being asked
to update their logo (only include an OSGeo project
logo on their website). </div>
<div>- the tight relationship with OSGeo foundation is
causing this request, so a mark at how central
osgeo-live is to our foundation<br>
</div>
<div>- I will support whatever direction the project
chooses to take (hesitate to offer my own opinion
since I can see advantages both ways).</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I have also had this question come up recently -
why is OSGeo-Live not an OSGeo project. The answer is
simply that you have not asked and acquired a mentor. </div>
<div>- You are of course welcome to apply as an OSGeo
Community project (and get approval right away -
summer voting habits permitting)</div>
<div>- Entering incubation can also be done, but we need
to line up a mentor first.</div>

public and private feedback on the branding which I took
into this weeks meeting.

</div>
<div>Many of the direct "osgeo foundation" activities just
use the normal OSGeo Mark, we have the examples of
"OSGeo Project", "OSGeo Community" as used by projects
ready to go.<br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>A few sub brands (GeoForAll, OSGeo Live, local
chapters) are expected to work with the design elements
and create their own mark. We have asked the designer to
use OSGeo Live as an example, this was the best I could
do without stepping out of contract :)</div>
<div><br>

<div>I checked the EOI and we have not paid for a sphinx
theme. We will have to wait for the website to take
shape and adapt later in the year. Colors, logos and
fonts we can do earlier.</div>
