[Live-demo] Project Sponsor logos in Project Overviews on OSGeo-Live

[Cameron Shorter]

Hi Jody,

I'm open to considering changes future OSGeo-Live documentation 
templates, (we don't have time for this 11.0 release). However, I'm very 
mindful that we need to make sure that anything added to the template is 
something that would be relevant to all projects. And something that we 
can sustainably maintain. More importantly, how to you remove a company 
that is not actively involved in a project any more without causing a 
political storm?

As such, I don't think we should be adding company contributors to 
Project Overviews.

Cheers, Cameron
