Thinking about this as I'm cleaning the inbox…it might be nice to have several logos for others to use, like "Powered by CloudStack" and "We use CloudStack" - would provide more clarity in situations like Giles was asking about, plus give sites/blogs/etc something to display on their site.
Should we have a marketing/PR section in the faq, perhaps? Also - anybody mind if I tweak http://cloudstack.apache.org/trademark-guidelines.html to display logo thumbnails linked to the full-size ones?
