Thanks, André --your timing is good, actually.
We just launched the new ASF identity yesterday, and will continue rolling out 
the new assets over the next few months.
To that end, we have an existing "Powered By Apache" campaign that can be used 
generally or specifically with certain Apache projects. Please see 
http://apache.org/foundation/press/kit/#poweredby Again, given that our launch 
was just 26 hours ago, the icon for Apache CloudStack on file is the old one, 
but still very much valid. If this fits your needs, feel free to use as 
appropriate.
Warmest regards,Sally

 Subject: Supported by ACS logo

Dear all,    I am 
pretty new to CloudStack community and want to start my thread with a short 
introduction. I am working for BIT.Group GmbH and heading the area called 
“Cloud Services”. There we are delivering Infrastructure Management Services to 
big customers (mainly SAP) with a clear focus on open source technologies. That 
means we do classical IT outsourcing specialized on implementing and operating 
virtualization and OS layer with Experts / Administrators in Germany (Dresden) 
and China (Shanghai).    Giving this background we started last year to build 
up an own “BIT.Cloud” and decided to use Apache Cloud Stack and Ceph as focus 
technologies. Our experiences with ACS are really good (clearly we find the one 
or the other optimization potential ;-)), we had great interactions in the 
community already and we decided to deepen our involvement. So hopefully you 
will hear now inputs from our side quite more often and we especially want to 
increase the CloudStack presence in the German speaking area.    What we 
currently miss is a kind of “supported by ACS” logo, because we want to publish 
our Cloud offering with a clear statement of our focus technologies. I heart 
that there were already discussions in the past, but somehow it did not come to 
an end. Do you also see the need or in general would you support the initiative 
to get such a logo?    In case most of you answer the question with yes, I see 
following main questions:    ·        Would you use the cloud stack (word), the 
monkey logo or the combination of both? ·        Are there any legal 
restrictions which we have to consider (e.g. does somebody has to approve this 
from ASF side?) ·        Do you know why the initiative in the past did not 
succeed?   ·        Did someone in the past already created some drafts or 
similar? ·        In case we have some logo proposals clearly some will like it 
and some won’t. Will we start a voting procedure or how does this work usually? 
   Please excuse this maybe stupid questions, but as I initially wrote, I am 
quite new to thisJ.    My wish would be, that everybody can use such a 
“supported by” logo in case he wants to and I would offer to engage our 
designer, to prepare some design proposals and share the results with you.    I 
am looking forward for a fruitful discussion and your feedback.    Thanks and 
best regards.    André Walter Cloud Services    BIT.Group GmbH T +49 3591 5253
