Brian --

We have a set of draft logos from our designer (see earlier thread on the
LOC list). Perry is taking the lead on trying to get consensus on either
which direction to go with the designs presented by our designer or whether
we need to go a completely different direction. From these, our designer
will be working at creating an identity (fonts,colors, versions of logo for
different purposes) that will roll into the website, signage, shirts,
programs that are used. I really don't want to take off in a direction of
cobbling something ad-hoc just for use at GIS/LIS.

  I used google earth because it was the fastest but one gets the general
  idea.

  I would vote for the Mars idea but we don't want attendees trying to find
  mars.

  the pushpin is centered on the U of MN...

  Put me down for a couple of t-shirts, magnets or whatever......

  All,

  I’m considering this a dry run for the FOSS4G-NA stuff to tell the truth.

  I think it will come down to how short the runs can be in the end on
  whether we can afford things. Whatever the minimum run limit ends up
  being is it. Any extras go to the audience / attendees, with volunteers
  getting first dibs.

  Nancy,

  I would suggest if we do shirts now that we just do them for Conference
  Committee folks (with a commitment to help at the booth). I think these
  would end up being a bit different than what we would give out at
  FOSS4GNA as we'd want to have the dates/url on them for promotional
  purposes. Maybe a couple extra to give out in the overall door prizes?

  I do think buttons or stickers or magnets or pens are something to look
  at.

  As much as possible, I would like to keep what we spend here constrained
  by the budget of what we pull in for booth sponsors for GIS/LIS. We
  really don't have anything in the conference budget for this type of
  marketing.

  Getting the logo by GIS/LIS would be great -
  Could we get it on at least buttons, if not t-shirts? if we do t-shirts
  at the meeting I'm not sure about doing them now?
  DB, remind me what we have in the budget for promotion...

  Hi Bob,

  That's a great idea about t-shirts. My experience with FOSS4G is that
  attendees really love these shirts, but local committees leave this to
  the last minute (some have even wanted to charge attendees for them,
  until I scream foul ha). I am happy that you are already thinking of
  this now.

  Speaking of that (and thinking of the FOSS4GNA logo on the t-shirt),
  what is the FOSS4GNA logo? (logos for FOSS4G always have a small part
  of the original 'ribbon' - notice the ribbon in all of the logos at
  www.foss4g.org)
