Jeroen introduced me to Birgit briefly during the gvSIG session, and
she made a lot of sense to me. Background in serious commercial GIS
marketing, did the "suite" of look-and-feel-and-concept designs for
GeoNetwork that reminded me of what Paul was calling for, and showing
off the results of for FOSS4G, back in Victoria.

I especially liked how i handed Birgit an OSGeo business card, and
after a minute she started deconstructing the logo design, placement,
and presentation of the business card. The fact they're a German 
*and* American outfit rang positive bells, too.

It's be nice to get a detailed outline of exactly what they would
provide (liveCD/DVD UI? t-shirt and other portables concepts? etc) as
well as the stuff that seems obvious (web, logo+styling, cards, etc)
