Hi Bernhard,

I agree - but why kick it to the SC - why not start the discussion on
the general discussion list and lets work out what it would mean to be a
local team - what general rules folks would want in place, what
responsibilities and requirements would be expected and the like.

IMO right now any decision about a logo policy is premature, whether it
is by your team, marketing or the SC, on this particular point - as
there is still no definition of what a local team is, what it can and
can not do. The use of a custom logo is only one piece of that.

I know that there never seems to be enough time for these kinds of
discussions, but that is never going to change - so speaking for myself
I would make time this coming week to actively engage in a discussion
and work on putting a draft together on the wiki with what comes out of
such a discussion.

It's also obvious that the clock is ticking on this issue, the folks in
Paraguay are off and running from what I can see, folks (or folk) in
Venezuela are eager to get going, the German team has always been in
place and dominates here

I'm really concerned that if only a logo use policy is put in place
there is a chance for continued problems from misunderstanding what the
use of such a logo will imply.

Then afterwards that draft could be presented to the SC for adoption.
