We already made it clear months ago we offer the Gimp logo of openerpbrasil.org http://www.openerpbrasil.org/images/logo.jpg to
any other local community that want it (a few like the Dutch community
asked us). At some point we like the idea of a common logo showing a
global commitment/strength/momentum behind OpenERP. For the rest of the
CMS, it's not as obvious for us we can give it away, but we can
certainly discuss it when local community representatives have our
trust.
About logos, OpenERP S.A. proposed not long ago using something like
this (change "Spanish" to "Dutch", etc.):
We already used variants of such logo on the Spanish localization project.
It's not the most beautiful logo, but it's already 'official' (that
doesn't means that communities cant add their own logos [your's looks
good for me!], but we should use this 'official' logos too).
Finally something very important we had to fight against: we
wanted the localization project to be a neutral entry point. For us,
integrator neutrality was even way more important than features. What
we wanted to avoid are pseudo community portals such as www.openerp-france.fr
or www.openerp.net.br
that look community oriented but are in fact the mail trap of a single
bastard integrator. We didn't want that to happen in Brasil and got to
fight hard to prevent it. We hope the real local OpenERP communities
aren't hijacked in other countries, we think OpenERP S.A. could weight
a bit to avoid people hijacking their image too since this is what
happens in this case: people that have nothing to do, no experience and
will likely fail any project they try are using their name/logo to trap
their victims.
That's why Carlos is proposing to use xxx.openerp.com URLs to point to
the main community portals (for example http://br.openerp.com
would be just an alias for http://www.openerpbrasil.org).
That would mean that:
- The 'official' community portal would be ranked a bit better by
search indexes (Google, Bing), that would mean that users would find
the neutral communities before the pseudo-communities.
- If some community portal becomes 'hijacked', OpenERP S.A. could
just point the URL to another web any-time.
- It would be easier to find other countries communities :)
