[Projects] please create a new project flyer for your project with the new branding till FOSS4G Boston

[Astrid Emde (OSGeo)]

Hello OSGeo projects,

it is not a long time till FOSS4G Boston where we will have an OSGeo 
booth with the new OSGeo logo and new flyers for the projects.

This is why we need your help! Please create a new project flyer for 
your OSGeo project with the new branding. We try to arrange it that the 
flyer will be handed out at OSGeo booth in Boston from August 14-19, 
2017 (http://2017.foss4g.org/)


The current flyer are out of date. You find them here as a template.
https://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo/browser/marketing/flyer/project_brochure_pdfs
https://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo/browser/marketing/flyer/

You also could take information from OSGeo-Live to setup your new flyer.
https://live.osgeo.org/en/overview/overview.html

You find the new branding material at:
https://github.com/OSGeo/osgeo/tree/master/marketing

Have a look at the GeoforAll flyer or OSGeo-Live flyer. You can see how 
a flyer could look like
https://github.com/OSGeo/osgeo/blob/master/marketing/print/geoforall_a4.pdf
https://github.com/lucadelu/osgeo/blob/osgeolive/marketing/print/osgeolive_names_a4.svg

The best way is to fork the repository on GutHub and make a pull request 
with your new flyer at the end.

These are the steps for you:

1. How to set up the fonts (on linux create the folder 
$HOME/.local/share/fonts and copy the 4 .ttf there)
* Download  from 
https://github.com/OSGeo/osgeo/tree/master/marketing/branding/fonts


2. Take the svg template and modify it with the content of your project
https://github.com/OSGeo/osgeo/blob/master/marketing/print/osgeo_a4.svg
You can modify the svg either with a texteditor or f.e. inkscape.

3. In the end you can create a pull request to the osgeo repository

We try to organize it so the flyer will be printed and present at the 
OSGeo booth

Thanks for your help.

If you have questions. Please ask on the list or contact me or Luca

PS: Luca finished the OSGeo-Live flyer and wants to work on the 
Zoo-Project and MapServer flyer too.
