And there is no better opportunity than the OOoCon to convince
stakeholders of the more conservative logo of the possibilities of an
update in marketing, visual identity, user reception and community
feeling.
I could imagine that a major sponsor of OpenOffice.org will take the
chance within the next months also to contribute to this topic. I'm not
sure if this will be in time for the Conference, but I'm sure that a
discussion during OOoCon will be useful and constructive.[...]
I don't know if it would be reasonable in this case, if we asked for a
slot in the official timetable even if the schedule seems to be finished
already.
I don't already know if others of this project will be present at
Orvieto - I for myself will try to take part in any discussion on that
topic (at the Conference place or in a tavern...)
I see this at least as a two step process: 1. Collect input and ideas as
a basis for developing some design objectives. 2. Collect design
proposals based on these objectives. Having an iterative process for a
new OOo logo in place would ensure that we will not exclude contributors
which get out of the race at early stage.
For the moment (just a few weeks to Orvieto) I'd like to keep the focus
on the logo proposals - every artist has his/her own design objectives
leading to these drafts.
In Orvieto and during the next months we'll have to work on a basis for
a general branding including the points you mentioned. This work will
have to be done continuously - and I hope that contributors keep contact
and stay with us even if their logo proposals will not become the final
version.
And if we keep on updating the logo with every major version (OOo4, OOo5
and so on), iterative work on the logo will be necessary.
just my 2c,
... and mine...
Best regards
Bernhard
