[Marketing] Marketing Digest, Vol 99, Issue 22

[Steven Feldman]

We couldn’t find the GeoForAll version to compare?

Happy to try without the ‘:’

My view (Jo or other UK folk may disagree) is that we always talk about our chapter as "OSGeo UK” we’d never say United Kingdom. United Kingdom in smaller text below the logo would work but it would be visually more cluttered IMO. It depends whether there is a strict guideline for the way local chapters implement the new design or whether you are ok with some flexibility?

Cheers
