Okay folks it is show time, please see tab-3 for the “Component 3: Print Marketing Collateral Creation”: OSGeo - Project Delivery Sign-off
Tab-3 provides a list of deliverables from the contract along with links to the google drive files, provided.
Just so we stay on task here is the description of component 3:
This activity involves creating print ready artwork (in ps, svg, psd etcetera as required) using the vector material created for Component 1, to be used to promote the foundation, its projects, initiatives and activities at events or distributed to educational institutions and other organizations for outreach. These materials are intended to provide easily digestible information about what OSGeo is and how it is relevant for GIS practitioners who may not be familiar with Open Source. These collateral items should be able to be modified and adapted by local organizations for their own purposes and in their own languages. The intention is that a local organization could download a packet of print ready artwork, modify it for their event or activity and send them to a local printer for production so should be in standard international sizes for ease of use.
Going over the list of links provided I notice some inconsistencies; think we are going to need to spend a bit of time hunting things down.
Letterhead / biz cards provided as EPS, not a template
Multi Page Brouchure A4 provided, not the most up to date Letter used for Boston
One Page Info - A4 provided, not Letter
Project - we have many examples
Foundation - we have a good a4 and letter example
Local Organization / Lab - we did not do one of these
Event - we wrote up text for foss4g but did not apply to template
Initiative - geoforall used as an example
Others? - we used osgeo-live as an example (is it a project or initiative? it is an other …)- Flyers - we did not do this one, EPS provided but not template
we used a one page osgeo handout instead due to printing cost- Printed Documentation Templates - this is pending
Booth Materials
Roll up banners - we have several examples spread over google drive folders
Back panel posters - eps provided, looks a bit dated, text inconsistent
Tablecloths - not sure we printed this one, EPS provided
Buttons, magnets, stickers - we have several examples spread over google drive folders and email- Horizontal banners - pim just provided now , not quite sure how these are used
Outdoor signage - not provided, folder contains examples of how it looks not the actual sign
T-Shirt template - pdf provided, so not editable
Social media profile assets - provided, we have inconsistent sizing to consider between facebook, twitter, linkedin
The big theme is locating the content produced, for content that has been provided we often have it spread across several locations we need to gather up. In a few cases we only have a final PDF or EPS file.
shared google drive folder used for this project
For content that needs to be adapted (such as letterhead or biz cards) I expect a template (indesign or whatever was used). Our community members have already shown the ability to migrate to scribus (or purchase indesign) as required.
Did you check Google Spreadsheet list? I’ve put the links to the files there. The one page info sheets and brochure A4 and Letter size are provided. The eps files I provided should be editable, I made those in Adobe Illustrator. One page content files don’t need a dtp programs like InDesign. Brochure needs a program like InDesign or for instance a program like Scribus. Let go through the list during the meeting tomorrow.
With regards,
Pim Tebbens

I have not tried editing EPS files (some of the ones I tried to edit in August showed up with each character as its own seperate shape). I am happy to try again
And yes we can go through the list in tomorrows meeting, we may also wish to check when Astrid as she is unable to join us during that weekly meeting timeslot.

The PDF in the above print-ready folder is Letter sized for Boston; is this size useful for you or do you need this content in A4? We revised some content based on the fosss4ge code-sprint and fixed many small glitches during review before Boston printing.
OSGeo project flyer
At print-ready [6] there are no project flyer.
At FOSS4G Printables [7] there are some links to some newer flyer version. For the rest I assume that the ones at github are the up-to-date ones.
That sounds correct but we should check:
checking osgeo_a4.pdf history shows Jul 13 modification
Do you think? Those logos are specific to the incubation process. I was thinking that I would create a sponsors folder with instructions and materials for sponsors.
Sorry, on wednesdays when marketing planning takes place I am always still working and can’t join.
Working is good; is there a time you can meet to review component 3 deliverables? You may also have more options to meet directly with Marc and Pim.

I’m sorry, I was a little bit too fast with responding without reading the complete mail (been a long day and all). I’ll double check the files tomorrow and see if they are all okey. I suspect there are some compatibility problems with the different software being used for editing the collateral files.

In today’s chat I was able to go through and review that all the files are there (thanks Pim), I changed the table structure to reflect what file formats are provided. For some content (example business cards) the “template” is in EPS relying on the ability of InkScape, Sketch, InDesign to important and edit.
Copy content to github for access by our community (need a volunteer to do this)
We can either proceed with a single sign off provided by me? Not my preference but we can …
I would be far more comfortable if Marc and Astrid could confirm as they will be using this material more directly in providing content to OSGeo events.
I do not have the access to the Google Dirve. Could you pass access to me?
It would be fine to have the files on github. This is where people expect them.
The de translations are done and are waiting to be integrated on github (file-names have to be defined)
I would volunteer to confirm the files on github. For suer Marc wold be great. Maybe Luca would be great too. And an english native speaker for review.

Astrid we were going to pit things on GitHub when reviewed/approved so as not to make the repo larger (since all these files are rather big for GitHub).
I am sorry I have not had time to put items on GitHub myself, we need a bit of time with all the pieces (review, google drive, GitHub).

Sorry but during the last weeks I was really busy with some new duties
at home
I will be really busy for other months after I hope to get more free
time, specially during night...
