+Per se, we don't have yet a consistent set of guidelines, neither for
+artwork, for style, for charter.
+
+There are:
+ - the above artguide that died somehow after we got our logo
+ - http://www.mageia.org/en/charter.html which is a quick style guide
+for Web sites
+ - the mageia_visual_identity_guidelines page is a placeholder,
+indeed. It can be not imported.
+
+What's important is that we at least have a place where we gather
+links/info about all recommandations for Mageia artwork and designs.
+
+> But the question is, what goes in there?
+
+Guidelines are here just to say what exists (opt. how it has been
+built/designed), how to use it, and how not to use it. And who to ask
+for requests that don't fit in the current guide.
+
+This relates to:
+ - Mageia visual identity (logo, colours, layout) (in coord. w/ marcom
+& council)
+ - community logos equivalent
+ - CD/DVD covers, printouts, posters
+ - ressources inside the distribution (splashscreens, icons)
+ - web sites
+
+That can be extensive and we don't have all yet, and it will take
+time. But that's the frame.
