Proposals +were sent to <A HREF="http://www.flickr.com/groups/mageia-art/pool/">http://www.flickr.com/groups/mageia-art/pool/</A> (you may +need to be logged in Flickr to actually see all proposals). + +First, on behalf of the board, let me thank all artists who invested +in this and published a proposal. 113 posters, for 429 posts. There +have been lots of different ideas, some matching the guidelines +(<A HREF="http://mageia.org/wiki/doku.php?id=artguide#logo_design_guidelines">http://mageia.org/wiki/doku.php?id=artguide#logo_design_guidelines</A>), +some not matching. So again, thank you to all, a lot, for your ideas +and your work. + +So here comes the selection process, as finalized with the founding +board and discussed with marketing and artwork teams. + 1. a first short list of proposals is made, with a set of somehow +objective criterias; it's always hard to do; + 2. public discussion is open on this list after validation from the +board, for a few days. + 3. a second short-list is made + 4. checking discussion and opinions, the founding board decides on +the logo and gets in touch with the artist to put the legal stuff in +order + 5. selected logo is refined with the artwork team and usage +guidelines are set up + 6. logo is officially publicly announced (we want the final version +of the logo for the official release). + +Then this will lay down the path for logo inclusion into our first +alpha release, and for other artwork-related work (color schemes, +website design). + +Short list criterias, events, are documented here: +<A HREF="http://mageia.org/wiki/doku.php?id=artwork:logo_selection_process">http://mageia.org/wiki/doku.php?id=artwork:logo_selection_process</A> + +Step 1. already occurred: Arnaud (rtp), Damien (dams), Caroline (caro, +invited on our behalf to assist) and me filtered this first short +list, of 77 files: <A HREF="http://www.flickr.com/photos/tags/mgared/">http://www.flickr.com/photos/tags/mgared/</A> (why red? +red is the first color of a rainbow - just in case we'd have to make +really several short lists). Criterias used are here: +<A HREF="http://mageia.org/wiki/doku.php?id=artwork:logo_selection_process#first_short_list_red">http://mageia.org/wiki/doku.php?id=artwork:logo_selection_process#first_short_list_red</A> + +Step 2. is the reason of this mail. 77 is still a lot, so we will +reduce (see next step) but nonetheless, we prefer to start the +discussion now. + +Step 3. will happen within the coming days during the discussion; for +this, you may add your criteria proposals to the above wiki page - it +may be used or not. You may list your top 4 favorites (here, by +email). Artists in the short-list may refine (not mandatory, really) +their proposal and mark it with a "mga refined" tag. + +We are Thursday Nov. 18th. That makes the public discussion open until +Wednesday Nov. 24th. Board final selection will be done in the days +after, and announcement likewise, depending on the progress of +refinements and legal processes. So first week of December, hopefully, +should be decent expectation for step 6. + +As said several times, please note that: + - only the founding board will close the selection and decide which +logo is the one; + - this will not prevent from listening to everyone's point of view on +the short list proposals. + +Cheers, + +Romain +</PRE> + + + +<!--endarticle--> + <HR> + <P><UL> + <!--threads--> + <LI>Previous message: <A HREF="003031.html">[Mageia-discuss] Introducing mageia-app-db +</A></li> + <LI>Next message: <A HREF="003032.html">[Mageia-discuss] Logo proposals discussion +</A></li> + <LI> <B>Messages sorted by:</B> + <a href="date.html#3030">[ date ]</a> + <a href="thread.html#3030">[ thread ]</a> + <a href="subject.html#3030">[ subject ]</a> + <a href="author.html#3030">[ author ]</a> + </LI> + </UL> + +<hr> +<a href="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-discuss">More information about the Mageia-discuss +mailing list</a><br> +</body></html> |
