Logo guidelines / credit

Hi VisCom,

I'd like to put together a web page that talks about the OSGeo logo (guidelines) as well as crediting the logo creator which was one of the parts of the contest. This would be done on an "About the OSGeo Logo" page.

Is there a set of guidelines around the logo, "OSGeo", and "Open Source Geospatial Foundation" usage yet? Most orgs have this kind of verbiage to protect themselves and to enable their communities in using their name/graphics under specific conditions:
http://www.mozilla.org/foundation/trademarks/policy.html
http://www.joomla.org/content/view/259/70/

Would VisCom be willing to take on putting together some usage guidelines and collecting information from the logo designed for use in the credit section?

Jason

This has been on the VisCom plate for ages -- sorry. I/we/someone will
get it done in the next 72 hrs, and run it by the board.

I had thought we had a start on this somewhere -- from Peter maybe?

Tyler, do you remember if we had drafted up a start towards this?

No I don't remember. I know I had been hoping to do up a logo page, but ran out of time.
