Description Susan McCourt CLA 2011-01-13 18:45:16 EST
Assuming we become a top level project and want branding for Orion (wordmark, favico, detailed logo for doc/web pages), how will this happen?

Will foundation resources be used?
A contest?

I ask because if we want Linda (IBM graphics designer) to get involved in this kind of effort, we would want to start planning sooner rather than later.

Nathan has already created a simple wordmark, which you can see in the screen shots in my original blog post[1] 

The Eclipse Foundation is already in the process of getting a contract in place with a graphic designed for the graphic. We've contacted the person who did the Twitter Fail Whale. 

So unless someone has an objection, that's the plan for the moment.

I should add that any and all assistance, guidance and help from Linda is always appreciated!

Thanks, Mike.  That wordmark is what triggered my question.  Now that we have webmaster and styling skills in the mix a la Nathan, I wondered if we might have access to more help in this area...

Linda's doing occasional reviews for us for things like overall layout, navigation structure, etc. (such as bug 334191).  But doing any graphics would have been considered "new work" so I wanted to make sure we weren't expecting that.

I think we can mark this fixed based on the logo and wordmark we had in place for M6.
