[FOSS4G2016] Sharing marketing materials

Wed Oct 21 06:37:59 PDT 2015

Hi,

for marketing reasons, we made a poster for the regional event "12. 
Mitteldeutsches Geoforum" in Leipzig, Germany.
We like to expand the poster with additional logos (e.g. WCCB logo). So, 
is it possible to put all logos from organisations, who support the 
FOSS4G 2016, to the server?
Or is this idea critical in relation to any copyrights?

Best regards

Volker Grescho
