[Marketing] Marketing Digest, Vol 95, Issue 34

[Marc Vloemans]

Jody et al

Had GetInteractive talk just now;
- they will include scope of work from proposal
- they will explicitly mention their use of WordPress (very implicit now)
- their license was not for design elements. It referred to paid (better quality) plugins for WP. they will rephrase that funny license-paragraph
- new version to be send on Monday.


Kind regards,
Marc Vloemans

> 
> *Payment schedule:*
> - only thing that stood out for me was €XX for "monthly technical website
> support". Wonder if that is to cover communication with SAC, it was also
> not clear to me if that was intended to be for the duration of the contract
> or ongoing... (note answered below)
> 
> *Design*
> No questions
> 
> *Graphics and Photographs*
> - [x] Vector graphic format
> - [x] Photographs - we have plenty from foss4g events, no need for stock.
> 
> *HTML, CSS and JavaScript*
> No questinos
> 
> *Browser Testing / Mobile Browser Testing*
> That is fine, a little better than expected with testing "Edge".
> 
> *Technical Support*
> Okay my question is answered they run the beta site, and then help SAC
> install. That is smart on their behalf so customers do not "walk off with"
> assets without paying.
> 
> *Search Engine Optimization*
> Just straight accessible to search engines; we will let our content do the
> talking.
> 
> *Changes and Revisions*
> Usual deal, if we change our mind they can quote for additional work
> 
> *Legal Stuff*
> No questions.
> 
> *Intellectual Property rights*
> Just a definition, why is this here? Ah a checklist:
> 
> - [x] text, images, artwork - we can handle making sure we have permission
> to use this
> - [x] they will assign to us IP they create during this contract ... if we
> pay :)
> - [x] design & visuals are now ours
> - [ ] work prior/seperate to this project --> osgeo gets an unlimited
> license (we need to make sure they understand that the graphical look will
> end up in open source projects and we cannot have a license conflict)
> 
> *Displaying*
> I am fine with them showcasing the resulting website.
> 
> *Fine Print*
> 
> The language is very clear for a contract - apparently simple works in the
> Dutch courts.
