I have spoken with 2 agencies off the record and a couple of marketing specialists I know. I think we could put together a call for pro bono proposals as there are many people that believe deeply in what Linux stands for.
I suggest that we put out a formal document that specs out in general terms what we are looking for. This document should include information on campaign goals and intended audience. We could then put together a review committee to short list proposals for review by the entire group. I am sure there would be many responses and we would end up with a very compelling message.

I personally like one of the positive slogans that bring out choice. Either one of the "Free yourself" slogans or one of the "You've Got Options" slogans would be great.
