OSGeo-Live Logo:

* 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.

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.

* I've answered on the incubation list, but in short, I suggest we
revisit the question after OSGeo-Live 11.0 release.

(actually honeymoon) but we got a lot done in the last two weeks
since I have spoken with you. The priority was obviously the
website and stuff for printing.

For my last updated I tried to adapt the new branding elements
and keep the heart shape:
<br>
<br>

<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B022m344wU7hV0dUaU1ZdkFoM28">https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B022m344wU7hV0dUaU1ZdkFoM28</a>

<br>
<br>
I did however manage to force the issue of subbrands; but doing
up printing materials including the geoforall and osgeo-live
logo. You can check the meeting notes for the result ....

o Review of OSGeo Live branding history
<br>

<br>
<br>
Discussion on relationship between projects and
osgeo
<br>
<br>
+
<br>
<br>
We have an answer about “Live” - it is a live
<br>
demonstration of software, rather than a static
demo.
<br>
<br>
+
<br>
<br>
We have a strong relationship and we could ask OSGeo
Live
<br>
to use the OSGeo logo unaltered, however that does
not
<br>
answer the general problem (of how to work with sub
brands)
<br>
<br>
<br>
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.
<br>
<br>
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:
<br>
<br>
[2]
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B08AjQ2hqLipZjJsSG12a19HcWM">https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B08AjQ2hqLipZjJsSG12a19HcWM</a>
<a class="moz-txt-link-rfc2396E" href="https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B08AjQ2hqLipZjJsSG12a19HcWM"><https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B08AjQ2hqLipZjJsSG12a19HcWM></a>
<br>
<br>
This is an interesting tradeoff:
<br>
- because no other software project is being asked to update
their logo (only include an OSGeo project logo on their
website).
<br>
- the tight relationship with OSGeo foundation is causing this
request, so a mark at how central osgeo-live is to our
foundation
<br>
- I will support whatever direction the project chooses to take
(hesitate to offer my own opinion since I can see advantages
both ways).
<br>
<br>
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.
<br>
- You are of course welcome to apply as an OSGeo Community
project (and get approval right away - summer voting habits
permitting)
<br>
- Entering incubation can also be done, but we need to line up a
mentor first.

Wanted to provide a small update, I got some public and
private
<br>
feedback on the branding which I took into this weeks
meeting.
<br>
<br>
Many of the direct "osgeo foundation" activities just use
the
<br>
normal OSGeo Mark, we have the examples of "OSGeo Project",
"OSGeo
<br>
Community" as used by projects ready to go.
<br>
<br>
A few sub brands (GeoForAll, OSGeo Live, local chapters) are
<br>
expected to work with the design elements and create their
own
<br>
mark. We have asked the designer to use OSGeo Live as an
example,
<br>
this was the best I could do without stepping out of
contract :)
<br>
<br>
I checked the EOI and we have not paid for a sphinx theme.
We will
<br>
have to wait for the website to take shape and adapt later
in the
<br>
year. Colors, logos and fonts we can do earlier.
