[OSGeo-Discuss] OSGeo Buttons

[Daniel Ames]

Arnulf,

Thanks for the clarification on the logos.  I was hoping to prompt this
topic thread with my posting. Also useful would be some guidelines on how
and where OSGeo logos can be used on other web pages, particularly in light
of the "self selection/opt in" membership approach.

Are all members (i.e. anyone who registers on osgeo.org) allowed to use the
OSGeo logo on their project/personal/corporate web pages to help identify
their interest in OSGeo?  Should the logo be linked to a particular page on
osgeo.org? Should the original logo be used or some modification of it?

Thanks,

Dan
