I like to add that there seems to be no GMAE logo, really. The one big image there is not really usable. Maybe sone of the designers likes to work on some smart logo which uses the GNOME foot (http://live.gnome.org/BrandGuidelines ). Just like to mention that a foot and mobility would make a good combination.
There is also still time to think about a better name (problem: how do you spell "gmae"? In german this sounds like a sheep). I just invented the word "GNOMOBILITY", which could also be used with the meaning of "mobility of GNOME" or "GNOME goes mobile". If you want to use it, be free to do so. One problem on the pages is that many different phrases are used - like the one page name is /mobile, then "GNOME Mobile", "The GNOME Mobile Platform", "GNOME Mobile & Embedded Initiative", "GMAE", "GMAE technology", "GMAE Platform". I think it is important to have a unique term And as it seems GMAE means "/Greater Minnesota Association of Evangelicals" ;-) And one needs to constantly use this term, which should be easily recognizable and writeable. I know renaming of an initiative is nothing to do lightly, but I think the long name /"GNOME Mobile & Embedded Initiative" is hard to grasp and is in itself not very unique (at least besides the term GNOME). So a good logo plus a recognizable name plus a good direction would be important to also make the page better. I started looking at the page on the logo and then found that I could not connect the logo with the initiative name - and that the title did not contain GMAE - and then I realized that this is not yet a real brand like "GNOME" already is. But it needs to be one to make more out of this initiative. And also the logo and brand should be connectable to GNOME by the sound and the look.
