I spoke too soon. I've got a new page that I'm adding that will detail out
a few things.

Ok, here's my latest...
http://people.apache.org/~jmitchell/site/
Any objections to me publishing this?
(I had to manually tweak the gen'd html to get the embedded flash to look
right)

Ok, I just updated the logo again, I hope this one looks a little better.
I'm adding a section to the main (index.xml) page under 'Foundation'. It
is
titled "What's with the logo?". I then briefly explain the contest and
how/what to do to submit entries and I'd like to list the prizes and
dates
when we will announce the winner. I wanted to get some feedback first.
I'm sure every TLP is different, but what is a good size for the logo?
I also assume we want 2 versions. A "logo" and a "powered by" image. Is
this correct?
+1 on wanting both.
How long do we run the contest for?
Two weeks? We need to have time for creative juices to flow.
One potential "endgame" scenario for this ... I've got a session about
Shale
at O'Reilly Open Source on Wednesday, July 26 ... it would be fun to be
able
to show the winner there.
Binding votes are committers or PMC?
Committers (although at the moment that makes no difference). The only
time
a PMC vote should be binding is on a release.
I think we should let the community
vote and tally up those results and announce them as well as what the
binding votes chose.
We definitely want to hear community votes ... my idea was that we counted
community votes only on the user list (i.e. you have to subscribe to say
anything :-).
Where do people submit entries? Jira? The wiki? Or simply email them in
and one of us can upload them?
IIRC, Geronimo did their logo thing with wiki submissions. That seems to
be
the easiest way for people to actually get involved.
Is there anything else I missed?
