Comment (by camerons):

 I agree that we should make use of OSGeo marketing, and credit OSGeo,
 OSGeo Sponsors, and LiveDVD contributors in a HTML web page.

 Extending the idea of OSGeo marketing, I think we should re-theme the
 LiveDVD with a new background for each major release. (Following the
 convention of other linux and windows distributions.) It means that people
 can visually see that there has been an upgrade and it gives users a nice
 warm fuzzy feeling of "ooh, something has changed, I wonder what else has
 changed, lets have a look".

 I also suggest that our project has very strong ties with OSGeo, and hence
 should brand ourselves as such, but we should also acknowledge our own
 brand as a project as well. So we should include "Arramagong" in the
 message too.

 LISAsoft has a very good graphic artist (who did the last image). I
 suggest that we give him our suggestions and then get him to put something
 together.
