My last email was not sent out with the context and sorry about the duplicate. Here it is again.I'll admit that none of the logos jumped out at me and I voted for the one I disliked the least. But, I think if your desired approach is taken, where constructive criticism and suggestions are provided to each submitter at this stage, it could turn into a huge process. What you are wanting to do is inject your personal preferences into each design so the logos are more the way you think they should be. Imagine if this was opened up and each OSGeo member (or even just the voting members) was allowed to provide the same input to the designers....... It would be a nightmare and progress would probably stall. I think a better approach would be to take the winning logo and then let the voting members as a committee tweak it within reasonable limits.
Andy, I'm not really keen on the "several public iterations" approach that I think Allan is proposing. But I think it is very helpful for folks to provide feedback which Allan did a great job of. I believe the Web Committee will be doing a finishing and refinement on the selected logo and feedback here from Allan and others can be helpful to the web committee in that process. It isn't necessarily the case that the selected logo will be used exactly as originally presented. PS. I don't see a need to restrict any of the activity to "voting members". The restricted number of voting members is intended to make certain legal issues more managable, but in general we try not to treat voting members of the foundation any differently than non-voting folks that show a willingness to contribute. I'm a bit of a broken record on this point!
